Red River Valley （注：本歌曲是一首流行于美国的19世纪就有的加拿大民歌，不同版本会有歌词顺序或内容的差异，但下面的见过的段落基本上都有了。） From this valley they say you are going. I shall miss your sweet face and bright smile(bright eyes and sweet smile). For they say you are taking the sunshine. That has brightened my pathway awhile I’ve been thinking a long time my darling Of the sweet words you never would say Now, alas all my fond hope as vanishing They say you are going away Come and sit by my side if you love me. Do not hasten to bid me adieu. For remember the Red River Valley And the cowboy who loved you so true. I have promised you, darling, that never Will a word from my lips cause you pain; And my life, it will be yours forever If you only will love me again. Must the past with its joys be blighted By the future of sorrow and pain, And the vows that were spoken be slighted? Dont you think, you can love me again? As you go to your home by the ocean May you never forget those sweet hours That we spent in the Red River Valley And the love we exchanged mid the flowers There never could be such a longing In the heart of a poor cowboy’s breast. As dwells in this heart you are breaking While I wait in my home in the West Do you think of this valley you’re leaving, Oh, how lonely and dreary it will be? Do you think of the kind hearts you’re grieving(hurting/breaking), And the pain you are causing to me? From this valley they say you are going. I will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile. For they say you are weary and tired And must find a new range for a while. Red River Valley （注： 这一部分是被选入人教版音乐教材的红河谷） Oh, the buffalo’s gone from the prairie. And the land waist the coming of man. To a waken to life and be merry. And to bloom at the touch of his hand　 Golden grain waits to cover these spaces, Mighty cities are waiting their birth. Welcome folks of all faiths and all races, To this beautiful corner of earth. 野牛群离草原无踪无影， 它知道有人类要来临； 大地等人们来将它开垦， 用双手带给它新生命。　 草原上将盖满金色麦穗，　 大城市过不久就建起；　 欢迎你，各民族姐妹兄弟，　 来到这最美丽的新天地。　 写给四十岁的自己 2004
