将身儿来至在大街口
I
carry myself to the cross-road
尊一声过往宾朋听从头
Hear
me every buddy, I salute you
一不是响马并贼寇
Neither
a bandit or desperado
二不是歹人把城偷
Nor a thief stealing from you
杨林与我来争斗
Yang
Lin and I were in a battle
因此上发配到登州
So
I was ousted to Deng Zhou
舍不得太爷的恩情厚
Appreciate
the favor of the country official
舍不得衙役们众班头
Appreciate
the officers my fellows
实难舍街坊四邻与我的好朋友
Truly
miss my neighbors and my good pals
舍不得老娘白了头
Miss
my mother silver-haired n' old
娘生儿连心肉
Mother
and son, blood and soul
儿行千里母担忧
Mother
worries while son travels
儿想娘身难叩首
Son
owes the mother piety filial
娘想儿来泪双流
Mother
misses her son tears dripping double
眼见得红日坠落在西山后
The
red sun’s falling behind the western hill
叫一声解差把店投
Hail
the officer to settle for a hotel
