“The Rocky Road to Dublin”The Dubliners
看到评论说“好像围着一群霍比特人一样”。
当然这和霍比特人好像没啥关系（但为什么感觉很像爱尔兰人。。），但你应该会觉得熟悉。因为这首曲子是《大侦探福尔摩斯》的片尾曲（恩，肉搏时也是这首）歌词挺有趣。
一首非常风趣的爱尔兰民歌。在这个歌曲里，很明显使用的乐器有：电吉他和爱尔兰风笛这个曲子出自盖尔风暴，在电影《泰坦尼克号》中一群人在三等仓表演时也用到这个乐器，演奏者也是他们。 值得一提的是，这首歌曲是大侦探福尔摩斯的片尾曲，非常符合电影主题以及年代背景。（摘自度娘the rocky road to dublin）
In the merry month of June, From my home I started,
在愉快的六月，我从家里出发了
Left the girls of Tuam, Nearly broken hearted,

Saluted father dear, Kissed my darlin' mother,

Drank a pint of beer, My grief and tears to smother,
又喝了一品啤酒，我悲痛得几乎窒息泪流个不停
Then off to reap the corn, And leave where I was born,
然后去收割谷物，离开我出生的地方
I cut a stout blackthorn, To banish ghost and goblin,
我砍下一棵结实的黑刺李，驱除鬼魂和小妖精
In a brand new pair of brogues, I rattled o'er the bogs,
踩上一双新皮鞋，我从泥沼边跑过
And frightened all the dogs, On the rocky road to Dublin.

In Mullingar that night, I rested limbs so weary,

Started by daylight, Next mornin' light and airy,
由黎明带起的，次日清新的阳光
Took a drop of the pure, To keep my heart from sinkin',

That's an Irishman's cure, Whene'er he's on for drinking.
这是个爱尔兰人的治方法疗，尽管他正要去喝酒
To see the lasses smile, Laughing all the while,
看着少女们的笑容，一整天都挂在那儿
At my curious style, 'Twould set your heart a-bubblin'.
对着我稀奇古怪的装束，那样的话你的心就能在梦想的泡沫中了吧？
They ax'd if I was hired, The wages I required,

Till I was almost tired, Of the rocky road to Dublin.

To be so soon deprived, A view of that fine city.

Then I took a stroll, All among the quality,

My bundle it was stole, In a neat locality;

Something crossed my mind, Then I looked behind;
有些东西出现在我的念头里，我向后看去
No bundle could I find, Upon my stick a wobblin'.
我找不到包了，我的棍子上一阵晃动
Enquirin' for the rogue, They said my Connacht brogue,
询问着小混混们，他们嘲笑着我爱尔兰的口音
Wasn't much in vogue, On the rocky road to Dublin.

When I jumped aboard, A cabin found for Paddy,

Down among the pigs I played some funny rigs,

Danced some hearty jigs, The water round me bubblin',

When off Holyhead, I wished myself was dead,

Blood began to boil, Temper I was losin',
血液在沸腾，我开始发脾气
Poor ould Erin's isle They began abusin',

"Hurrah my soul," sez I, My shillelagh I let fly;

Some Galway boys were by, Saw I was a hobble in,

Then with a loud hurray, They joined in the affray.
