一
She sate upon her Dobie,
To watch the Evening Star,
And all the Punkahs, as they passed,
Cried, "My! how fair you are!"
Around her bower, with quivering leaves,
The tall Kamsamahs grew,
And Kitmutgars in wild festoons
她独自坐在一块土砖上，
看着夜空星儿多闪亮，
旅人们路过都赞叹：
“哦，多么美丽的姑娘！”
她的闺房有绿荫环绕，
康桑树呀长得多么高；
伽马格树开出了小花儿，
二
Hung down from Tchokis blue.
Below her home the river rolled
With soft meloobious sound,
Where golden-finned Chuprassies swam,
In myriads circling round.
Above, on tallest trees remote
Green Ayahs perched alone,
And all night long the
Mussak moan'd Its melancholy tone.
倒挂下蓝蓝的枝条。
她家楼下小河在流淌，
唱着歌儿丁零当；
金鳍的鱼儿一群群，
转着圈儿多欢畅。
有只孤独的绿怪鸟，
栖在远处最高的树枝条；
整夜你都能听得见，
远处呜咽着忧伤的曲调。
三
And where the purple Nullahs threw
Their branches far and wide,
And silvery Goreewallahs flew
In silence, side by side,
The little Bheesties' twittering cry Rose on the flagrant air,
And oft the angry Jampan howled
Deep in his hateful lair.
早已干涸的紫色河床，
纵横交错伸向远方；
一群银色的咕哩哇鸟，
比翼默默飞在天上。
矮小的鼻涕鸟叽叽喳喳，
直叫得人们脑袋发麻；
金蟠兽的怒吼声阵阵传来，
从肮脏不堪的兽穴底下。
四
She sate upon her Dobie,
She heard the Nimmak hum,
When all at once a cry arose,
"The Cummerbund is come!"
In vain she fled: with open jaws
The angry monster followed,
