| Whummil Bore (original) | Whummil Bore (traducción) |
|---|---|
| Seven long years have I served the king | Siete largos años he servido al rey |
| Long and lonely | largo y solitario |
| Though I ne’er got sight of his daughter, but once | Aunque nunca vi a su hija, pero una vez |
| Lovely one and only… | Precioso y único… |
| I saw her through a whummil bore | La vi a través de un whummil bore |
| Long and lonely | largo y solitario |
| Though I ne’er got sight of her no more | Aunque nunca la volví a ver |
| Lovely one and only… | Precioso y único… |
| Two were putting on her gown | dos se ponían su bata |
| Long and lonely | largo y solitario |
| And ten were stitching pins therein | Y diez estaban cosiendo alfileres en él |
| Lovely one and only… | Precioso y único… |
| Two were fitting her shoes so neat | Dos estaban ajustando sus zapatos tan bien |
| Long and lonely | largo y solitario |
| And two were buckling them so sweet | Y dos los estaban abrochando tan dulces |
| Lovely one and only… | Precioso y único… |
| Five were combing down her hair | Cinco estaban peinando su cabello |
| Long and lonely | largo y solitario |
| But I ne’er got sight of her no more | Pero nunca más la vi |
| Lovely one and only… | Precioso y único… |
| Her neck and breast were like the snow | Su cuello y su pecho eran como la nieve |
| Long and lonely | largo y solitario |
| But then from the bore, I was forced to go | Pero luego, por el aburrimiento, me vi obligado a ir |
| Lovely one and only… | Precioso y único… |
| Lovely one and only… | Precioso y único… |
| Lovely one and only… | Precioso y único… |
