In a kingdom by the sea

That a maiden there lived whom you may know

By the name of ANNABEL LEE

I was a child and she was a child

In this kingdom by the sea

Coveted her and me

And this was the reason that, long ago in this kingdom by the sea

And bore her away from me

Went envying her and me --

That the wind came out of the cloud by night

Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee

But our love it was stronger by far than the love of those who were older than we --

Of many far wiser than we --
所拥有的爱更有力
And neither the angels in heaven above nor the demons down under the sea
那些天空上面的天使,还有那些大海下面的魔鬼
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul of the beautiful Annabel Lee
都不能分开我的和她的灵魂,我和美丽的安娜贝尔·丽
For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams of the beautiful Annabel Lee

And so, all the night tide, I lie down by the side of my darling -- my darling -- my life and my bride
就这样,在整个的夜晚,我躺在我亲爱的,亲爱的,一生的新娘身边
In her sepulcher there by the sea
在那疯狂咆哮的大海旁
In her tomb by the sounding sea
在她安宁睡着的坟墓里
