I saw a ship a-sailing,
A-sailing on the sea;
And oh, it was all laden
With pretty things for thee!
The captain was a duck,
With a packet on his back;
And when the ship began to move,
The captain said, "Quack, Quack!"
我看到一艘船在航行,
在海上航行;
噢,它们被装得满满的,
装满了送给你的美丽的东西!
(客舱里有甜甜的蜜饯,底仓里有美味的苹果;
船帆用丝绸织成,桅杆用黄金铸造。
24名水手,站在甲板中央,
那是24只白老鼠,脖子上还系着锁链。)
船长是一只鸭子,
背上还背了个包袱;
当船开始航行,
船长叫着,“Quack, Quack”
