《Down by the Salley Gardens》
"走進莎莉花園"問世以來歌者眾多，比較喜歡籐田惠美的聲線和演繹······
《Down by the Salley Gardens》演唱：籐田惠美
作詞： Yeats(葉慈，1865-1939，愛爾蘭劇作家、詩人，獲1923年諾貝爾文學獎)
Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet;
莎莉花園的深處，我曾經相遇過我的至愛。
She passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet.
她輕輕的穿過沙利花園，雪白的小腳細碎的步伐。
She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree;
她囑咐我愛要輕鬆，新芽在枝椏萌發。
But I, being young and foolish, with her would not agree.
那時我年輕無知，未曾領會她的心聲。
In a field by the river my love and I did stand,
流水在曠野歡唱，我們駐足在河畔。
And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand.
我微傾的肩上，是她雪白的小手。
She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs;
她說要珍重生活,青草在堤岸滋長。
But I was young and foolish, and now am full of tears.
那是我年少無知，而今只有熱淚盈眶。

一直覺得葉慈的詩非常東方,這首詩問世以來也是譯本眾多，沒有一個翻譯出感覺來的，它本身很接近《詩經·蒹葭》，生活在此處，心頭的永遠的戀人在遠方······
