Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Translation of Jimmy mo mhile stor?
QUDT - quick and dirty translation:
This time last year, the secret love of my breast went from me, He won't come home until the course of his life is run. When I see him, the energy will run high before him, And I'll cover him with honey, Jimmy my thousand-treasure.
My father and my mother were pressuring me I'm pecked at, picked at, raked at, tormented out of my life: I'd take a shine to him who's so fair and beautiful And he went aborad a boat, Jimmy my thousand-treasure.
I'd go into the woods, and spend a portion of my life, In the place where there's no one, listening to the music of the birds; At the foot of the hawthorn tree, where enough grass is growing Giving liking to that person – that's Jimmy my thousand-treasure.
