4. Van On The Jukebox

8. Carrickfergus

這個字是上面提過的「蓋爾語」文字，雷同英文的"party"，是愛爾蘭社交的會議場所翻譯

9. Outstay one's welcome

Grafton street位於愛爾蘭首都「都柏林」當中，這是一條特別很是熱烈的大街，有很多酒吧、商鋪、咖啡店、音樂家表演等等。

[Chorus]
She played the fiddle in an Irish band / 那姑娘是某個愛爾蘭樂團裡的小提琴手
But she fell in love with an English man / 但她卻愛上了一名英國人
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand / 我在她脖子上一吻
Said, "Baby, I just want to dance" / 並牽著她的手說：「瑰寶，我只想和你共舞。」

這首歌首要是在講一個英國漢子碰到了愛爾蘭的姑娘，和她喝酒舞蹈一整晚的美妙故事。

是一個英文片語，意思為「別人要你脫離，你卻一向賴著不走的狀況」。

這裡的Van指的是Ed非常喜好的歌手Van Morrison(范莫里森)。Jukebox的意思是「點唱機」。

這個是一般的英文用語，在酒吧裡常示意「打烊前顧客所點的最後一輪酒」。

Gaelic的意思是用「蓋爾語」所寫的文字，而蓋爾人(Gael)首要分布在愛爾蘭南部。另外，Ed Sheeran右手臂上有刺一段蓋爾語 “Nuair is gá dom fháil bhaile, is tú mo réalt eolais”，意思為「當我想要回家的時刻，翻永久是我的明燈翻譯」

[Verse 1]
I met her on Grafton street right outside of the bar / 我在酒吧外的街上碰見了她
She shared a cigarette with me while her brother played the guitar / 她哥哥在一旁刷著吉他 而她遞給我一支菸
She asked me what does it mean, the Gaelic ink on your arm? / 她問我手上的刺青是什麼意思
Said it was one of my friend's songs翻譯社 do you want to drink on? / 我說這是我朋侪創作的一段歌詞 想不想喝一杯呢?
She took Jamie as a chaser翻譯社 Jack for the fun / 她喝"尊美醇"解酒 喝"傑克丹尼"來助興 
She got Arthur on the table with Johnny riding a shotgun / 她桌上擺著一杯"健力士" 前頭還有杯"波爾士" 
Chatted some more翻譯社 one more drink at the bar / 我們聊得很和諧 在酒吧裡一杯接一杯
Then put Van on the jukebox, got up to dance / 然後點首"范莫里森"的歌曲 準備縱情舞蹈

這次是Ed Sheeran《÷》專輯歌詞翻譯第三彈〈Galway Girl〉，一首佈滿愛爾蘭風味和專著名詞的歌曲，我第一次聽到的時刻，就被這首歌的吉他、節拍感和Ed的Rap給吸引了翻譯

[Verse 3]
And now we've outstayed our welcome and it's closing time / 雖然是打烊時候 但我們卻賴著不走
I was holding her hand, her hand was holding mine / 我們手牽著手
Our coats both smell of smoke, whisky and wine / 彼此身上的外衣佈滿菸酒味
As we fill up our lungs with the cold air of the night / 當我們終於呼吸到夜晚的冷空氣
I walked her home then she took me inside / 我送她回家 而她也約請我進去
To finish some Doritos and another bottle of wine / 吃了一些零食 喝了一些酒
I swear I'm gonna put you in a song that I write / 我包管會將妳寫進我的歌裡
About a Galway Girl and a perfect night / 關於一個高威姑娘 和阿誰誇姣的夜晚

這四個字其實代表四種酒。Jamie代表一種叫Jameson(尊美醇)的愛爾蘭威士忌；Jack代表一種叫Jack Daniels(傑克丹尼)的威士忌；Arthur代表一種叫Guinness(健力士)的愛爾蘭啤酒；而Johnny代表一種叫Powers(波爾士)的愛爾蘭威士忌。

You know she beat me at darts and then she beat me at pool / 無論比射飛鏢照樣撞球 我都輸給了她
