Well, then... Urrmm, now.
I'll begin at the beginnin'.
A fine, soft day in the spring it was
when the train pulled into Castletown, three hours late as usual,
and himself got out.
He didn't have the look of an American tourist at all about him,
not a camera on him and, what was worst, not even a fishing-rod.
Castletown?
- Castletown? - Could you tell me the way to Inisfree?
Inisfree? Aw, five miles and maybe a half more.
- Do you see that road over there? - Yeah.
Don't take that one, it'll do you no good. Now, the best road to Inisfree, and many...
Oh, Inisfree you want. Be savin' your breath, let me direct the gentleman.
Happen to know the way to Knoghenor?
If you knew the way there, would he be asking the way to Inisfree?
There's many knows Knoghenor that doesn't know Inisfree.
If you'd take the time to study your country's history, Mr Maloney...
- ... you'd be the first to admit it. - Don't send the poor man there.
The fishing is finished there entirely. Tell me, Yank, what is it that you're after?
- Is it trout or salmon? - All I want is to get to Inisfree.
Ah, now you're talking sense. The best fishing in the country.
- True. - Trout as long as your arm.
And salmon! The last one I got, I expected Jonah to pop out of his mouth.
Ah, Inisfree. I'd bring you there myself,
only I got to drive the train.
Hey, was I tellin' you about that trout I got two summers before last?
- At Inisfree? - Not at all!
At Ballygar, over the other end of the country.
My sister's third young one is living at Inisfree,
and she'd be only too happy to show you the road.
- No, no, if she was here. - It's Inisfree the man wants to go to.
- You see that signpost over there? - What do you know...
Inisfree, this way.
I wonder, now, why a man would go to Inisfree.
- Six foot six? - Four and a half.
- Cincinnati? - No, Pittsburgh.
Pi..Pitss...
Don't you remember, Seaneen, and how it was.
The road led up past the chapel, and it wound, and it wound,
and there was the field where Dan Tobin's bull chased you.
It was a lovely little house, Seaneen, and the roses.!
Your father used to tease me about them, but he was that proud of them, too.
That's nothin' but a wee humble cottage.
That little place across the brook, that humble cottage. Who owns it now?
The widow Tillane. Not that she lives there.
- You think she'd sell it? - I doubt it.
Don't bet on it 'cause I'm buyin' it.
Why... why would a Yankee from Pittsburgh want to buy it?
I'll tell you why, Michaleen Oge Flynn, young small Michael Flynn,
who used to wipe my runny nose when I was kid.
Because I'm Sean Thornton, and I was born in that little cottage.
And I've come home, and home I'm gonna stay.
Does that answer your questions once and for all, you nosy little man?
Seaneen Thornton... The...
And look at you now.
What do they feed you, all you men who are in Pittsburgh?
Steel, and pig-iron furnaces so hot a man forgets his fear of hell.
When you're hard enough, tough enough... other things.
Other things, Michaleen.
Now then, here comes myself, that's me there, walking.
That tall, saintly-looking man. Peter Lonergan, parish priest.
Good day, Father. Sean, this is Father Lonergan.
Father, would you believe it? This is Sean Thornton,
born right here in Inisfree, home from America.
- Hello, Father. - Ah, yes.
I knew your people, Sean.
Your grandfather... He died in Australia, in a penal colony.
And your father, he was a good man too.
Bad accident, that. And your mother?
She's dead. America, when I was twelve.
I'll remember her in the mass tomorrow. You'll be there, seven o'clock.
- Sure, I will. - Good.
Sean, I'd like to have a little word with Michaleen here.
- Sure thing, Father. - It'll only take a minute.
- It's a little matter... - Take your time. I'll be up ahead.
(MICHALEEN): Sean!
Hey, is that real?. She couldn't be.
Uh, nonsense, man. It's only a mirage brought on by your terrible thirst.
Come up, Napoleon.
Over here we pronounce it "Co-han".
Good morning.
None of that now. It's a bold, sinful man you are, Sean Thornton.
Who told you to playing patty fingers in the Holy Water?
- Just being polite, that's all. - What is this?
Maybe you don't know it's a privilege only for courting couples,
and then only when the banns have been read.
And Mary Kate Danaher dippin' her fingers in as neat as you please.
- What did you say her name was? - Mary Kate Danaher.
And don't be getting any notions in your head.
- Mary Kate... - Forget it, Sean, forget it.
- Put it out of your mind. - Why? What's the matter?
- She isn't married or anything? - Married? That one?
Not likely. And her with her freckles and her temper.
Oh, that red head of hers is no lie.
Still, a man might put up with that but not with her lack of a fortune.
The wealthiest woman in Inisfree was the widow Tillane.
She had neither chick nor child, poor soul,
but she was well-respected and good to the poor.
- So you were born there, is that it? - Yes, ma'am.
All Thorntons were born there, seven generations.
I see. And what is your thought, Mr Thornton,
are you planning to turn White O' Mornin' into a national shrine?
Perhaps charge tuppence a visit for a guided tour
through the cottage where the Thorntons were born. Are you a man of such eminence?
No, not exactly.
My own family has been in Ireland since the Normans came hundreds of years ago,
but we've seen no reason to establish monuments or memorials...
Look, Mrs Tillane, I'm not talking about memorials or monuments.
Ever since I was a kid living in a shack near the slag heaps,
my mother has told me about Inisfree and White O' Mornin'.
Inisfree has become another word for heaven to me.
When I quit the... When I decided to come here, it was with one thought in mind.
Inisfree is far from being a heaven, Mr Thornton.
Ma'am, Mr Red Will Danaher wishes to be announced,
I mean, Squire Danaher.
Watch your muddy boots!
- Mrs Tillane. - Mr Thornton, from America.
- Aw! - Boo.
It's him I'm here about, Mrs Tillane.
- (WILL): Is it true? - Is what true?
That behind me back, he's trying to steal White O' Mornin' right from under me nose?
And what concern of yours is this, Will Danaher?
Concern? Concern enough.
Haven't I made you a fair offer for that same piece of land?
- And mine, lying right next to yours? - You may keep your offers.
- Oh, so it's true. You sold it! - No, I have not.
Oh, I knew it was a dirty lie the very minute I heard it!
Sure, I said to him,
"Paggy McFarland, I won't believe that Sarah'd be selling White O' Mornin'."
(WILL): Why, it would be like building a fence between your land and mine.
"And for a stranger to move in", says I. "What would she be doing that for?"
And us so close to an understanding, you might say.
- So you told him all that? - That I did.
Down at the pub, I suppose, in front of all those big ears,
with pints in their fists and pipes in their mouths.
You may have the land, Mr Thornton, for 600 pounds.
- Done! - No, you can't. 610!
As I remember, you said 700 pounds.
See here, little man... 710!
- How about an even thousand? - A thousand and...
And... and I'll be saying good day to you, Mrs Tillane, and all here but one.
And I've got you down in my book.
My dad remembers his dad well.
Mike Thornton. He had shoulders on him like an ox.
I saw him meself this mornin'. A tall, handsome man, as I was passin' that chapel.
If you'd pass the pub as fast as you pass the chapel, you'd be better off, little squint.
Just look at them! Eating me out of house and home.
Get back to the fields! There's work to be done.
Isn't it a bit early in the day for the bottle... even for you?
Feeney, get your book out.
Set down the name, the one Sean Thornton.
Oh, look at me clean floor! You dirty little...
- Shut your gob. - Aw, shut you, little man! Here.
Clean it up yourself, or there will be no dinner tonight!
There now! Look now, you mustn't mind himself this day.
That's all the work you're good for, you little tattletail.
- Feeney, have you written the name I gave you? - I have.
Well, strike a line through it. That's for him. Sean Thornton...
So... He bought White O' Mornin' in spite of you.
Good for widow Tillane.
Pay no attention to her at all! Take no notice.
You do, and there'll be a fine wake in this house tonight.
After all, he's got more right to that land than you have!
He'll regret it to his dying day, if ever he lives that long.
- Will it be all right if I leave my bags in here? - I imagine they'll be safe enough.
If you see a little guy, Michaleen Flynn, tell him I'm waiting for him in the bar.
- It'll be a pleasure, especially for Michaleen. - Thanks.
Is there anything you should like now, Yank?
If I think of anything, I'll let you know.
(BAR IS QUIET)
Evening.
Pleasant night.
- I'll try one of those black beers. - Oh, the porter. Yes, sir.
Sir, will you join me? Matter of fact, I'd like to buy everybody a drink.
I do not believe I heard your name, tall man.
Thornton. Sean Thornton.
And... your father's name?
Mike. Michael Thornton. He used to live here, by the Mornin'.
I just bought the place back. That's why I'm here.
Then your grandfather would be Ol' Sean Thornton.
- Right. - Bless his memory.
So it's himself you're named after.
Well, now. That being the case, it is a pleasant evening and we will have a drink.
* There was a wild colonial boy
# Jack Duggan was his name
# He was born and bred in Ireland
# In a town called Castlemaine
- Good evening, Father. - Is the rest of the committee here?
- They're waiting. - Sorry we're late.
- The fishing was bad, was it? - Fine lot of time we had for that!
- Oh, Michaleen... - Commandant Forbes.
You can forget about the Commandant. We're at peace now.
Sure, but I haven't given up hope.
- Your Yankee friend is waitin' in the bar. - Oh, he's here already...
Wait a minute. Who is he anyway?
He's a nice, quiet, peacelovin' man come home to Ireland to forget his troubles.
- Troubles? - Yes, he's a millionaire like all the Yanks.
But he is eccentric. Wait till I show you.
- What is it? - A bag to sleep in. A sleeper bag they call it.
I'm tellin' you. The sleeper bag... Wait till I show you how it operates.
- Where does it open? - Hurry up, I have an important appointment.
- Well, open it up! - Here.

Sean Thornton, the men of Inisfree bid you welcome home.
Thank you.
"And the men of Inisfree bid you welcome home."
- What's wrong with that little speech? - Oh, you'd be knowin' what.
I'm a man from Inisfree, and the best man.
And I bid no welcome to a man fool enough
to pay 1000 pounds for a bit of land that isn't worth 200!
True for you, squire.
(MAN): Didn't I hear of someone named Danaher bid 810?
Get your book out. Put his name down: Dermot Fahy.
F-A-H-Y. No e's, Squireen Danaher.
If you were half the man you think you are,
you wouldn't begrudge a Thornton the right to his birthplace.
- What right has he to a land he's never worked? - It's Thornton land, isn't it?
- You've too much of your own as it is. - Quiet, if you please.
Parliamentary procedure. Squire Danaher has the floor.
If I had the floor...
- ... I'd hit that big ape with it. - Hold on.
I don't blame Mr Danaher for gettin' on his ear.
Who's on his ear? Why, you and ten like you couldn't put a Danaher on his ear.
- It's just a way of speaking... - Mind your ways, then.
The point is, it's already done. I own the property now, and since we're neighbours...
Neighbours? Neighbours...
Never!
And if I so much as catch you putting one foot on my property, I... I...
And, oh, another thing. You keep away from my sister Mary Kate.
She's not for the likes of you.
Where I come from, we don't talk about our womenfolk in saloons.
You sort of make a habit of it. This morning it was widow Tillane.
- What's that? - That's true. It's ashamed you should be.
Hey, look, I'm not accusing Mary Kate. It's him.
Why, this very moment, let him deny it if he can.
At the back of the chapel, he took liberties that he shouldn't have.
- I said "good morning" to her. - Good morning?
- It was "good night" you had on your mind. - That's a lie.
(MUSIC STOPS)
- That's a what? - I said "that's a lie".
That's a word I take from no man! Put up your fists.
- I'm not gonna fight you. - But I'm gonna...
Thank you.
(FATHER): Danaher! What's the matter with you?
(FORBES): He's drunk! Feeney, take him home, will you.
(FEENEY): Don't soil your knuckles on the man.
- Come on, what do you say? - Never.
Take the man's hand, or I'll read your name on a mass on Sunday.
- (FEENEY): Take it. - I'd join the Church of Ireland first.
As if they'd have you. Shake his hand like I tell you.
- (FEENEY): Come on, come on. - Shake hands?
It's a good grip you have. I always hated a flappy handshake myself.
Father Paul!
Michaleen, introduce me to this quiet, peacelovin' man of yours.
I have a strange notion we're going to be friends, Yank.
Give me a minute. Just let some blood run back into this.
Sean Thornton... His grandfather, a grand man he was, was hung in Australia.
I could tell you blood-curdlin' stories about him, but me throat...
(SEAN): All right, come on.
# He was born and bred in Ireland
# In a town called Castlemaine
# He was his father's only son
# His mother's pride and joy
# And dearly did his parents love
# This wild colonial boy
Are you sure you won't change your mind, and come around home with me?
Don't worry about it. I've got my sleeping bag, haven't I.
Well, it's a nice, soft night.
So, I think I'll join my comrades, and talk a little treason.
- Good night, Sean. - Good night, Michaleen.
(MICHALEEN): God bless you.
(SEAN YELLS)
(MARY KATE SCREAMS)
So bold one you are. Who gave you leave to be kissin' me?
- So you can talk? - Yes, I can, I will, and I do.
It's more than talk you'll be gettin' if you step closer.
- Don't worry. You've got a wallop. - You'll get over it, I'm thinkin'.
Some things a man doesn't get over so easily.
Like what supposin'?
Like the sight of a girl coming through the fields, with the sun on her hair.
- Kneeling in church, with a face like a saint. - Saint, indeed.
And now, coming to a man's house to clean it for him.
But... that was just my way of bein' a good Christian act.
I know it was, Mary Kate Danaher, and it was nice of you.
Not at all.
- Hello. - Good morning, Mr Thornton.
- How are you, Fa..Doctor... - No, no. Mr.
And on formal occasions, the Reverend Mr Playfair.
And this is Mrs Playfair.
(MRS PLAYFAIR): Well, Mr Thornton. You are a wonder.
It looks the way all the Irish cottages should... and so seldom do.
And only an American would have thought of emerald green.
- Red is more durable. - And the roses! How nice.
You'll need lots of horse manure. Fertiliser, I mean. Horse is the best.
Oh, I brought you a plant. You know, "a primrose by a river's brink".
"Brim", not "brink". The next line ends in "hymn".
Poets are so silly, aren't they? Oh, I hope you're not one, Mr Thornton.
- Oh no, ma'am, I... - Thornton.
There's a familiar ring to it.
Ring to it... Thornton...
It's a common name. Thank you for the plant, Mrs Playfair,
this is damn... darn... awfully nice of you.
Oh?
It's a bed. Excuse me.
- Morning. - (MAN): That's a fine big bed, Mr Thornton.
Biggest one I could find.
Is that a bed or a parade ground?
Oh, a man'd have to be a sprinter to catch his wife in a bed like that.
(HORSE WHINNIES)
Whoa!
Mr Flynn... And what are you all dressed up for, Michaleen Oge?
I ha...
- I have come... - Oh, I can see that.
- But from whose pub was it? - P... pub?
You've a tongue like an adder. I go about me own business,
and tell Thorn Seanton he's well off without you.
Wait a minute. What was that?
Well, if you listened and not be interruptin' the matchmaker.
I have come...
- ... at the request of Thorn Seanton... - Sean Thornton.
Shut up.
... bachelor, and party of the first part...
... to ask of you, strictly and formally, here...
... Mary Kate Danaher, spinster...
... and party to the second part...
Well?. Go on, you were sayin'?
Me mouth is like a dry crust, and the sun is that hot, and me pate...
Would you be steppin' into the parlour?
The house may belong to my brother, but what's in the parlour belongs to me.
I will then, and I hope there's a bottle there, whoever it belongs to.
It could be.
You have a fine, steady hand.
To good bargaining.
To resume:
- The party of the first part... - That's him.
... has instructed me to enquire before enterin' into formal negotiations...
- ... whether the party to the second part... - That's me.
... thinks kindly of the general idea, or in his own words... American, eh...
- ... eh, yes, he wants to know if you go for it. - Go for it?
- And if you do, he'll speak to your brother. - That won't be easy.
Oh, as well I know it.
He'd as soon put his fist into my teeth as bid me the time of the day.
What did Sean... the party of the first part, say about my fortune?
He says he doesn't give it...
He says it's a matter of complete indifference to him.
- He did? - He says he doesn't give a sh...
He says it's all one to him if you come in the clothes on your back, or without them.
Oh, he did, did he? Well.
A fine opinion he must have of me, if he thinks I'd go to any man without a proper fortune.
And this you may tell your Mr Party of the first part:
When I wed, whatever's my own, goes with me.
Get up, little man.
And all this furniture is mine.
And I have that china, and linen, and 50 pounds in gold my father left me,
and my mother's rings, brooches, my grandmother's veil, her silver comb...
Thirty pounds odd in notes and silver I've earned these past 15 years, that's all.
You're a well propertied woman. I wouldn't mind marryin' you meself.
Eh, where'd you leave the bottle?
And I'd have you tell him, that I'm no pauper to be going to him in my shift.
# Lo, young May moon is beamin' love
# The glow of one's lamp is gleamin' love
# How sweet to row through Mourner's Grove
# While the drowsy world is dreamin'...
- You know "The Peter And The Ghost".? - I do not.
- Neither do I. - Could you use a little water in your whiskey?
When I drink whiskey, I drink whiskey, and when I drink water, I drink water.
Back to business now.
What answer will I give Sean Thornton, Mary Kate Danaher?
Well, you can tell him from me that...
... that I go for it.
# Here's to steal a few hours from the night
# My dear
- How do I look? - You look fine.
- Hey, what do I say? - I'll do all the talkin'.
- And I'm suppose to stand here like a dummy? - Shh, now.
- Will, there's someone coming to call. - Who?
It's... well...
It's Michaleen Oge Flynn, and there's a gentleman with him.
Here, Will, put on your coat.
Will Danaher, they're comin' to the front door.
Since when has the back door been not good enough?
- (MICHALEEN): God bless all in this house. - (SEAN): Good evening.
(MICHALEEN): Miss Danaher, we'd like a word with your brother.
Come on in so, and welcome.
Easy now!
Mr Sean Thornton, bachelor, meet Miss Mary Kate Danaher, spinster.
Miss Danaher, meet Mr Thornton from Pittsburgh, Massachusetts, USA.
- Good evening, Miss Danaher. - This...
This way, please.
- Eh, this is my brother... - Leave the room.
- But... - I said, leave the room.
- Yes, Will. - Sit down, that's what chairs are for.
- If you've come for supper, you're late. - Gracious invitation, but thank you, no.
I don't suppose there's a drop in the house.
- Help yourself to the buttermilk. - Buttermilk? The Borgias would do better.
We'll come with your permission to the object of this visit.
You've noticed, I presume, that I'm wearin' my official black coat.
I have. For your dead friend here.
(WILL): I need no trouble to arrange any marriages for me.
I see. You've been making fine progress with widow Tillane in the last ten years.
- Is that what you've come to talk about? - I have not.
- I've come to talk about your sister and him. - Aw, get out.
If he was the last man on the face of the earth, I'd still say no.
- Now just a minute. - If it's a question of the girl's fortune...
Why, if it'd be a shilling piece he wanted with her...
- ... I'd still say no. - Come on, Michaleen. I told you so.
- I'll explain it to her myself. - Hey, Yank, I'll count three.
If you're not out of the house by then, I'll loose the dogs on you.
If you say three, you'll never hear the man count ten.
- Oh, Mary Kate, we tried. - We'll see him again some other time.
I thank you anyway, Sean Thornton, for the asking.
You don't think this changes anything? It's what you say that counts, not him.
Now, now, Sean. You've gone too far, that's enough.
Say, what is this? We're gonna get married, aren't we?
- I don't get it. - This is Ireland, Sean, not America.
Without her brother's consent she couldn't, and wouldn't. I'm sorry for both of you.
Those were the bad days. Sean with a face as dark as the black hunter he rode.
A fine, ill-tempered pair they were.
It was only a matter of time before one or the other broke his neck.
We knew things couldn't go on this way.
Easy, Sean!
Hello, Mary Kate... Danaher.
Good morning, Sean Thornton.
So, we formed a little conspiracy.
The Reverend Mr and Mrs Playfair, Michaleen Oge and, saints forgive us, myself.
And on the day of the Inisfree Races, we sprung the trap on Red Will Danaher.
Remember, you make your speed when you hit the water.
- Yes, father. - And ride carefully, my son.
Yes, mum.
Thornton, no silks.
- Your colours, Thornton. - Thank you.
- Good luck. - Good luck.
Ladies, gentlemen, your attention, please!
Will all the lovely ladies,
who are putting up their bonnets for the Inisfree Cup,
please place their bonnets on the finishing line.
Ladies, your bonnets, please!
- Will you not be putting up your bonnet? - Indeed, I will not.
- No? - No!
Okay, Michaleen, the widow's bonnet.
Will all the gentlemen riders please go to the starting line.
All riders, please.
Crown at 20 to 1 on the Yank. I'm given 20 to 1 on the Yank...
- I'm given 30 to 1... 40 to 1 on Danaher. - Flynn!
If you've done any matchmaking between Thornton and my widow, I'll put you in me pocket.
- Ah, so you've heard? - Father, what sort of a scoundrel is this Yank?
One minute it's me sister, and the next it's herself.
Well, blame no one but yourself.
If you'd saved me as your matchmaker, you would've been married long since.
- True, Will, true. - I'm not saying it's too late yet.
- What do you mean? - Why has the widow stood you up so long?
- You're a fine looking man. - I am.
- A rich, propertied man. - And well she knows it.
- Father, will I tell him? - Go ahead, Michaleen.
What woman would come into a house with another woman in it?
If you got rid of Mary Kate, the widow would be in like a shot.
- No. - Yes. You had your chance and you flubbed it.
You refused Seaneen Thornton, and he reneged on you.
Now, I doubt if he'd take your sister if you put 1000 pounds on her.
- Father Lonergan? - I can't say it's true, and I won't say it's not.
- But there's been talk. - Oh, a lot of talk.
A lot of talk, eh?
Two women in the house, and one of them a redhead.
Two women.
Three Our Fathers, and three Hail Marys.
Morning, Mary Kate. Morning, children.
Don't sit there gawking. You're gonna put up your bonnet.
- I will do no such shameless thing. - You will.
I will not!
No bonnet, Mary Kate? What a pity.
Betting will now stop,
and the sale of all intoxicating and alcoholic drinks will cease. I mean it now!
Oh, Sergeant Major, in your good time, please.
The Yank's holdin' back.
Foul!
- Look at that crazy Danaher! - Wouldn't it be wonderful if he broke his neck?
Maybe he will now, God willing.
Will... Will, come on!
- Foul. - I didn't see it!
Come on, Sean! Sean... I mean Paul, Father Paul.
- Thornton! - He took your bonnet, Sarah.
Fine race! You rode like a trooper.
Trooper... Trooper Thorn, of course! I knew I'd seen you somewhere before.
Now that you know, I wish you'd keep it under your hat. Forget it.
- I understand. It'll be our secret. - Thanks.
Your bonnet, Mrs Tillane.
- A cup for the winner. - Oh, thank you.
- Flynn... Does your offer still stand? - Well, eh, that depends.
- You... eh, you mentioned... 500 pounds. - 350, and not another penny.
Well, I speak to me principal of the first part, eh?
(CHURCH BELLS RINGING)
Good morning, good morning. Come on.
Well, now. The banns having been read...
... and no man objecting...
... I'm permitting this man to court me sister.
But under the usual conditions.
Mr Flynn?
- Do you assume the full responsibility? - I do, I do.
And from now on, they'll do the walkin' and the talkin' under me own eyes.
Well, then. Let the courting commence.
None of that! Hands to yourself, and your own side of the road.
- Get onto the other side of the cart. - Up you go.
(PEOPLE CHEER)
(SEAN:) Why do we have to have you along?
Back in the States I'd honk the horn and the gal'd come-a-runnin'...
Come-a-runnin'? I'm no woman to be honked at, and come-a-runnin'.
America... Pro-hi-bi-tion.
Do you see that over there?
That's the ancestral home of the ancient Flynns.
It was taken from us by... by... by the Druids.
(FLYNN SINGS TO HIMSELF)
You're the quietest couple I've ever herded. We'll get nowhere by this rate.
Off you get. I'll let you do a healthy mile or so,
just to get you two walking correctly together.
Now, she's a fine, healthy girl. No patty fingers, if you please.
- Nice day. - It is that, Mr Thornton.
- That's a pretty bonnet you have on. - Bonnet?
Don't you talk to me about bonnets! After leaving mine stuck up...
Easy now, easy now. Is this a courting or a fight?
Have the manners not to hit a man until he's your husband, and until he'll hit you back.
I am sorry. I have a fearful temper.
You might as well know about it now, instead of finding out about it later.
We Danahers are a fighting people.
I can think of a lot of things I'd rather do to one of them... Miss Danaher.
Shh, Mr Thornton. What will Mr Flynn be thinkin'?
(SEAN): Can you ride a bike?
Well, what are we waiting for?
Mary Kate Danaher! Sean!
Eh... ep... Come on!
(MICHALEEN): Come back here! Come back at once!
(MARY KATE SCREAMS)
(MICHALEEN): Come back here! Come back at once!
Come back here! Come back!
I think you have more sense than I have myself.
Whoa there, Freddy.
If anybody had told me six months ago, that today I'd be in a graveyard in Inisfree
with a girl like you that I'm just about to kiss...
- The kiss is a long way off yet! - Ha?
We just started the courting and next month we'll walk together,
and the month after that there'll be the trashing party...
No.
- Maybe we won't have to wait that month... - Yup.
- ... or for the trashing party... - No.
- ... or for the walking out together. - No.
And so much the worse for you, Sean Thornton, for I feel the same way about it myself.
(LOUD THUNDER)
And so they were married in the same chapel I gave them their baptism.
Later, there was a nice, quiet little celebration.
(LOUD, CHEERFUL MUSIC)
# Oh, as I went out one mornin: It being the month of May
# A farmer and his daughter abide their bonny way
# And the girl had only come in to the milking of her cow
# Sayin'I will an'I must get married, The humour is on me now
# Oh, the humour is on me now, Oh, the humour is on me now
# Sayin'I will an'I must get married, The humour is on me now
# So, at last the daughter married, she married well-to-do
# And loved her darlin'husband a month, a year, or two
# But he was all a tyrant as he quickly rode about
# Sayin'I'm sorry I ever married, The humour is on me now
# Oh, humour is on me now, Oh, humour is on me now
# Sayin'I'm sorry I ever got married, The humour is on me now
(SINGERS LAUGH)
To a successful conspiracy.
- A toast, to the bride and groom! - One moment.
There will be no toasts until we've seen the bride's fortune.
The bride's fortune? You'll see it, never fear.
We'll see it now, if you please. The proprieties must be observed.
- Father Lanergan. - Feeney.
350 pounds gold.
A collection of furnishings, linen, and pewter goes with the sister...
... of Will Danaher.
Then, a toast.
May their days be long, and full of happiness.
May their children be many, and full of health.
And may they live in peace, and freedom.
Reverend Fathers, ladies and gentlemen. Attention, please.
Squire Danaher has the floor. In other words, he's got somethin' to say to you all.
Thank you. I have a little announcement to make.
Fill up the glasses. All of them.
Eh, today, I've given my sister in marriage.
My only sister, and now she's gone from the house of Danaher.
- But what's in a house without a woman? - That's true.
That's right, what's a house without a woman in it?
Yeah, what's a house without a woman in it?
Where would any man of us be without a woman?
- Even Father Lonergan had a mother. - What do you expect?
Yeah, what do you expect. What do you expect...
So... So...
- So, without further eloquence... - Without further eloquence...
So, without further eloquence, I will give you a toast to myself...
... who is soon to be wed.
All she has to do is to say that little word.
When's the happy day, Sarah darlin'?
Have you lost the little sense you were born with?
- What's the matter, Sarah darlin'? - And don't "darlin"' me.
Who gave you the right to make such an announcement?
(WILL): But Sarah... They all said...
Why... The Reverend Mr Playfair, Mrs Reverend, Father Lonergan.
... eh, little Flynn... Michaleen.
- Didn't you tell me... - Oh, I didn't, I didn't.
Oh, you lied, didn't ya? You lied, didn't ya?
You all lied! It's bad enough for you people, but my own priest.
You got her by fraud and falsity. You put them up to this.
- I don't know what you're talking about. - Will, for heaven's sake.
- Danaher, you're crazy! - Crazy, am I?
This is something you won't get, now or never!
Now, get out of here. All of you!
(WILL): The Reverend first, ladies and gentlemen, get out!
- (WILL): Get out! - Come on, let's go home.
No, not without my fortune. It's mine, and my mother's before me...
(SOUNDS OF BOXING)
(CROWD SHOUTS WILDLY)
(CROWD'S BOOING)
Steady, Trooper, steady.
Let's go home.
Ever since I was a little girl, I've dreamed of havin' my own things about me.
My spinet... over there,
and the table here, and... my own chairs to rest upon.
And...
And the dresser over there in that corner.
And... my own china and pewter shinin' about me.
And now...
I didn't know you felt that way about it but...
... seems like a lot of fuss and grief over little furniture and stuff.
- (MARY KATE): It is a pretty cottage, isn't it? - Yeah.
(SEAN): I think so.
- Don't touch me. You have no right. - What do you mean no right?
(MARY KATE): I'll wear your ring, I'll cook, and I'll wash.
I'll keep the land, but that is all!
Until I've got my dowry safe about me, I'm no married woman.
I'm the servant I've always been, without anything of my own.
That's ridiculous! You're my wife, and fortune...
- What is this? - Haven't I been trying to tell you?
Not until you have my dowry, you haven't got any bit of me. Me, myself!
I'd still be dreaming amongst the things that aren't my own...
... as if I had never met you.
There's 300 years of happy dreamin in those things of mine, and...
... I want them. I want my dream. I'll have it and I know it!
- I'll say no other word to you. - All right.
You'll have your dowry, or daughter of fortune, or whatever you call it.
Well, get it then.
There will be no locks or bolts between us, except those in your own mercenary little heart.
(LAUGHTER AND MUSIC FROM OUTSIDE)
- Sean. - How'd you sleep?
Don't be shamin' me, please, in front of your friends.
What... ? Oh, okay.
# (MEN).: There that I learned all me courtin'
# Many lessons I took in the art
# The Cupid, the blagger, while sportin'
# An arrow drove straight through me mush, mush, mush, toor-i-li-anny
# Me mush, mush, mush, toor-i-li-ay
# So I lathered him with me shillelagh
# For he trod on the tail 'o me mush, mush, mush, toor-i-li-anny
# And just like the dingle before
# I lathered him with me shillelagh
# For, he trod on the tail of me coat
Hello, the house! Anyone up?
- Good mornin'! - Good mornin'.
I... I suppose it's a bit early to be callin'.
After you left last night, Mary Kate, a couple of us persuaded Danaher to change his mind.
It's a... what might be called a sort of a belated wedding present.
My things... My furniture!
We'd brought them over last night, but due to the circumstances...
Thanks, thanks.
- Okay, easy now. - God bless all here.
That's right. Oh, be careful. Over there by the wall.
No, no, no. Turn it around, so that the light shines on the music.
- That's grand. That's grand now. - Where do you want this?
- Mighty handy. - It...
It was my mother's, and my mother's mother's before.
- Where do I put it? - Where do you suppose?
(MICHALEEN): Where do you suppose...
- We're sorry about the dowry, Mary Kate. - We couldn't get him to change his mind.
- Not even Father Lonergan could do it. - (SEAN): Let him keep it.
- Keep my fortune? - You've got your tables and chairs.
- What do we care about his money? - My money.
Let him have it if it means that much to him.
- What manner of man is it that I've married? - A better one, I think, that you know.
Impetuous! Homeric!
(MARYKATE).: #Oh, Inisfree
# My island, I'm returning
# From wasted years, across the wintry sea
# And when I come back
# To my own dear island
# I'll rest awhile
# Beside you
# Bromwell Creek
Now I know why you have so many rock walls in this country.
(MARY KATE): Roses! Are you plantin' roses?
- Yeah. - A fine farmer you are.
- Not a turnip, or a potato in the field. - Or children.
(ROOSTER CROWS)
Sorry.
Well, I... I suppose they'll make a very fine display around the cottage.
- It is a pretty cottage, isn't it? - I think so.
Let's see now.
We need a plough, and a cultivator, and seed for planting.
About a horse for the ploughing... We could sell that hunter of yours.
I'll buy another horse for the ploughing. Why not a tractor?
Oh, a tractor... Nasty, smelly things. Besides, they're an awful price.
- With a horse, you get other advantages. - Yeah. For the roses.
Roses, again.
You...
We could do our shopping in Castletown,
and if we put a good foot under us, we'd be back by suppertime.
- Five miles! - Well, that's just a...
Good stretch of the legs, huh?
All right, get on your walking shoes.
I'll be a minute.
(HONKING FROM OUTSIDE)
So, you're not a woman to be honked at, ha?
Why, it's beautiful! Did you ever see...
- It looks like it could fly. - Only one horsepower, but it's all yours.
- Mine? - Sure. Think you can drive it?
Hold on to your hat!
(RED WILL): You take care of that, Feeney.
- Let's have another pint. I'm buying this one. - High time.
- What's that? - I said, that's fine, squire.
Good health to you all.
- Look, he sold the crossbreds. - The what?
- The sheep he's been planning on. - Oh.
Hurry, now is a good time to ask him. Well, go on.
- Ask him what? - About my money.
He can't say that he hasn't got it with him now.
Can't you understand that I didn't marry you for your fortune?
- I don't give... a hang about the money. - But he does! That's the whole point of it.
- Now will you go and ask him? - No. Why shame ourselves?
Shame? The shame's on you, not on me. Or on me too, if I married a coward.
Is that what you think of me?
What else if you let him rob you out of my money?
Money! I'm sick of the talk of it. Is that all you Danahers think about? Money?
(FATHER): Quiet! He's just behind that rock.
- This is very important... - Oh, salmon! He's winking at me.
I've been trying to catch this one for ten years.
I've got to talk to you about my husband and myself.
There he is.
Father, I... I...
You see...
- Father, could I... tell you in the Irish? - Hush, hush.
(SHE SPEAKS IN GAELIC)
(HE ANSWERS IN GAELIC)
Sleeping bag, Father, with...
... with buttons.
(SHE SPEAKS IN GAELIC)
Woman, Ireland may be a poor country, God help us,
but here a married man sleeps in a bed, not a bag,
and for your own good... Help, help, there he is!
- I've been waiting for this for 10 years! - Keep his head up.
- There's that beauty, that... - Keep his head up. Keep a tight line.
I've got you! I'll get him!
- Tight line it is. - Keep his head up!
His head is up!
(FATHER): For ten years I have... Get the net, woman.
Oh, you got him, Father. Keep his head up, you fool!
Get the net!
Get the net, woman!
- God help us! - Oh.
Sleeping bags...
# If you ever go across the sea to Ireland
# Then maybe at the closin' of your day
# You will sit and watch the moon rise
# Over Claddagh
# And see the sun go down
# On Galway Bay
# For the breeze is blowin' across the sea from Ireland
(SINGING STOPS)
You're just in time. Just done me drink.
- Join us, Sean. - Oh, you will have a drink, Sean?
No, thanks.
I wanna talk to you, in private.
- If there's anythin' you got to say, say it here. - I'd rather talk in private.
What's the matter? You're among friends. They fought for you, didn't they?
- Maybe they'll do it again. - I'm not askin' anybody to do my fightin' for me.
- Oh, so you're willing to do your own, are you? - You know what I came for.
I do. I just want to hear you ask for it.
Just ask for it, Yank.
- You've got 20 pounds on him. - And so I have.
What if I put one of me fists in me pocket? Right or left? You choose, go on.
Go on, that's fair enough, isn't it?
(WILL LAUGHS)
The fightin' Thornton!
- It was Mr Thornton, so I brought him in. - Bless my soul. Sit down.
- Have you tiddled your last wink? - I have.
- No cheating? - I have not.
- Do you play tiddly-winks? - No, I...
- Maybe I shouldn't have butted in like this... - Nonsense. How is your lovely bride?
- Fine. - Elizabeth, say good night to Mr Thornton.
But he's only just come... oh. Very well. Good night, Mr Thornton.
- Good night. - Good night, Cyril.
Good night, Elizabeth. Pleasant dreams.
- Are you sure... - Good night, Elizabeth.
You're the only one I can level with. I gotta talk to somebody, or I'll blow my top.
- Danaher, of course? - Yeah.
Since you know who I am... or was, you know why I don't want any fighting.
Yes, I was reading about it again this evening.
Some men collect butterflies, some stamps. My hobby's always been sporting events.
There it is.
"Trooper Thorn quits ring"
"Heavyweight challenger hangs up gloves after fatal knockout"
"Vows he will never fight again"
It's a very understandable reaction.
The papers all say it was an accident. Just one of those things.
It's just one of those things in a scrapbook, but when you carry it around in here...
Tony Gardello was a good egg.
Nice little wife and a home, a couple of kids. A clean fighter.
I didn't go in there to outbox him. I went there to beat his brains out.
To drive him into the canvas, to murder him. That's what I did.
For what? Purse, a piece of the gate.
Lousy money.
And now money is behind your trouble with Danaher.
They think I'm afraid of fighting. All the friends I've made, even my wife.
- Well, aren't you in a way? - Did you ever kill a man?
Well, I have, and all this talk about her big fortune...
It's not that important.
Perhaps it is to her.
It must be strange to you from America,
but it's an old, old custom here, and believe me, it's a good custom.
The fortune means more to her than just the money.
Not to me, it isn't. Not worth fighting for.
- Is your wife's love worth fighting for? - I don't know.
All I know is that... I won't fight, unless I'm mad enough to kill,
and if that means losin' her... I don't know.
- Maybe she doesn't love me enough. - It's a difficult situation.
I think you'll find the right answer in God's good time.
And when that time comes, I hope I'm still here.
- You're not leaving, are you? - It's a possibility.
My bishop is coming tomorrow on his annual visit,
and I've got such a small congregation, just 2-3 people at the service.
- He may transfer me. - The place wouldn't be the same without you.
Elizabeth and I just love this place. We were born here too, you know.
The bishop's a good egg, maybe it'll be all right.
Oh, by the way. Don't underestimate Danaher.
He may be clumsy, but he's got a tremendous right and a jaw of granite.
I did a little bit of boxing in my time.
You won't be laughin' now, will you?
It was at Trinity.
"Lightweight champion, 19... "
The year doesn't matter. It was long, long ago.
All right.
By the way, would you join me in a glass of...
Oh, no.
No. You'll be in training now, of course.
- (MARY KATE): Did you have any supper? - No.
(SEAN): I'm not hungry.
- The drink sometimes does that to a man. - I haven't had anything to drink.
(SEAN): If you wanna know, I was talking to the vicar.
- Mr Playfair. - That's strange.
I had a long talk with Father Lonergan.
Woman of the house! Where's me tea?
Mary Kate?
(MICHALEEN): Save your breath, boy. She's gone from you, and small wonder.
- What are you talking about? Where is she? - She came tappin' at me door.
- "Will you join me to the train", says she. - Why?
The very question. "Why", says I. "Because I love him", says she.
"I love him too much to go on livin' with a man I'm ashamed of."
- What time was this? - Time for the Dublin train.
Saddle up my horse, will you, please.
Saddle his horse?
I'll have no part in helpin' you to put more shame on her.
Saddle his horse...
Dam da dam da, diddle de da...
Well, we're off!
Then, might I suggest that the train already is four and a half hours late.
Now, is it my fault?
There's a match at Ballygar, and the champions of all Ireland...
If you knew your country's history as well as you claim to know it,
you'd know that they haven't been beaten west of the Shannon for the last 22 years.
- True! - It's a lie!
If this means what I hope it means...
Danaher versus the Yank. It'll be weeks on the green this time.
Morning.
Good day to you, sir.
Five minutes, did you say? Right!
- He's walkin' her back, the whole long way! - It's Homeric, that's what it is, Homeric.
- Post a lookout. They may go home first. - Where's your pistol?.
- In the same place. - Excuse me, general.
One by land, two by sea, and I'll follow the lot.
What a day for Inisfree!
On a day like this I can say only one thing. Gentlemen, the drinks are on the house!
Well, they are.
(WOMAN): Darling, here is your shoe!
Why, you...
It's only five miles. Just a good stretch of the legs.
- You lost your shoe. - Thank you very kindly, sir.
(WOMAN): Mr... Mr Sean! Here's a good stick to beat the lovely lady.
Thanks!
(GUNSHOTS FROM OUTSIDE)
I think your in-laws are comin' to visit you, Squire Danaher.
Danaher, you owe me 350 pounds. Let's have it.
So, the IRA is in this, too, eh?
If it were, Will Danaher, not a stone of your fine house'd be standin'.
A beautiful sentiment.
I'll pay you... never.
That breaks all bargains.
(SEAN): You can take your sister back. It's your custom, not mine.
(SEAN): No fortune, no marriage. We call it quits.
You'd do this to me, your own wife?
- After what... - (SEAN): It's done.
There's your dirty money. Take it.
Count it, you spawn, and look.
If ever I see that face of yours again, I'll push that through it.
Charge it!
I'll be goin' on home now. I'll have the supper ready for you.
All right, Will, you asked for it.
Three to one given on Danaher. Three to one...
- I'll have some of that. Ten on Thornton. - Done! Anyone else?
(MICHALEEN): Gentlemen, if you please. This is a private fight.
The Marquis of Queensbury rules will be observed on all occasions.
Mind your nose, squire.
Okay with me, Michaleen!
Thanks.
Non-belligerents will kindly remain neutral.
Now, shake hands and come out fighting. I thank you.
Did you hear that, everybody? The Marquis of Queensbury rules.
- The Marquis of Queensbury rules. - Mar..
Come on, get up, Marquis of Queensbury.
- I hope that Thornton beats him senseless. - He's a married man, Sarah.
Who cares about him? It's that big bully concerns me.
"I'm the best man in Inisfree." As if I didn't know that.
Call them and tell them to send reinforcements. There's a riot here.
Five to one on the big chap, Snuffy.
- Given or taken? - Given.
- You've had enough? - No.
Well, give a man a hand, then.
Yes, inspector. Thank you, sir.
- What did he say? - To put five pounds on Danaher's nose.
- Another ten on Thornton! - Another.
- A pound on Danaher. - Two pounds on Danaher, please.
Two pounds?
"... hands of a hundred battles, eye on a thousand besides... "
"... stood alone on the victorious field, his buckler bent... "
"... his broken sword clutched in his mighty hand... "
"... the blood of a thousand wounds oozing from his open veins... "
(NOISE OUTSIDE)
- Father! Father Lonergan! - Shh, shhh.
- A big fight in the town! - And in this fish right here.
- I'd put a stop to it but... - You do that. It's your duty.
But you see, it was Danaher and Sean Thornton!
- Who? - Danaher and Sean Thornton.
Why the devil didn't you tell me?
- Shouldn't we put a stop to it? - We should, lad, we should.
It's our duty, yes, it's our duty.
Come on, come on!
- How's that bettin' going? - Even money, but don't ruin it.
Well, Danaher, you're a good fight, I'll say that for you.
When it comes to that, it's been a pleasure beatin' you.
Thanks.
- Will you take another 20 on Thornton? - No, the book's closed.
- A pound on Thornton against the squire. - Go away!
- How about a drink? - The drink will be on the house.
That's a good idea. The people of Ballyglon are comin' over by bus, thousands of them.
That's a good idea, not that I'm tired. I'm as fresh as a daisy.
You look more like a black-eyed Susan to me. Let's go.
- Is that a public house? - Yes, your lordship.
- Are they going in? - Yes, your lordship.
- Does that mean that the fight's over? - No, that's just the end of round one.
Come, keep away, keep away!
Whiskey? No, that'll be too warm, it'll get your blood up. Porter is the very thing.
- Ah, it's peaceful and quiet in here, isn't it? - Yeah.
You know...
This has been a fight I'd come a long way to see.
I hope you can stick around for the finish.
Don't worry about that!
- You know, Yank. I've taken quite a likin' to you. - I'm gettin' real fond of you, too.
Your widow, me sister... She could've done a lot worse.
- True, true. - Poor woman.
- Thanks, fill them up again. - You buy me no drinks.
- The drinks are on the house, sir. - I'm takin' no drinks from you, squint.
- I'm buyin' the drinks. - You can buy me a drink at your wake.
And not before.
I'm buyin'!
Bar towel!
- What time is it? - Half past five, sir.
Lord, he beat you!
Why... I hope you won't be vexed with me, but I've lost three pounds to Mrs Delany.
I know I shouldn't have bet but...
There you are, Stuffy, 15 pounds.
- Hello there, Elizabeth. - Your lordship.
- And what have you been doing all day? - If you'll excuse me, I'll...
I'll get your tea, Snuffy.

Sit down, sit down. That's what chairs are for.
Hurry it up!
Well, then. So peace and quiet came once again to Inisfree,
and we were... Good heavens, what's that woman up to now.?
Make way, she'll be runnin'you down with that.!
When the Reverend Mr Playfair comes down,
I want us all to cheer like Protestants. Now, spread out!

好啦
現在，我由最開頭說起
那是個風和日麗的春天
火車開進凱索鎮
和平常一樣慢了三個小時
他自己下了車
他一點都不像美國觀光客
沒有帶照相機
更糟的是連釣魚竿都沒有
凱索鎮
可否告訴我殷尼斯費怎麼走？
殷尼斯費，五哩，或許多半哩
看見那條路了嗎？ 是
別走那條，對你沒好處
到殷尼斯費的最佳走法…
你要去殷尼斯費
請省省力氣，馬隆尼先生
讓我指示這位先生
你知道納克諾怎麼走嗎？
納克諾？他若知道
還要問附近的殷尼斯費嗎
很多人知道納克諾
卻不知道殷尼斯費
你若花時間研究本國史
一定會第一個承認
別用納克諾誤導這個可憐人
那兒一條魚都沒有
告訴我，美國人，你想要什麼
鳟魚或鮭魚
我只想到殷尼斯費去
這才像話
是全國最好的地方
說得對，卡斯特洛先生
鳟魚和你的手臂一樣長
還有鮭魚，上次我钓到的那條
大得我以為約拿會由他嘴裡出來
沒錯 殷尼斯費，我樂意帶你去
只是我得開火車
聽說杜菲前兩週生了兒子，是嗎
是的 在殷尼斯費嗎？
不是，不是
在威靈加，這個國家的另一頭
我妹妹的小兒子特爾住殷尼斯費
他一定很樂意為你帶路
很好 不…如果他在的話
這個人要問的是殷尼斯費的走法
看見那個有長杆的半圓基了嗎？
殷尼斯費，這邊走
不知為何有人會想到殷尼斯費去
六英尺六吋 四英尺半
真準
辛辛納提 不對，匹茲堡
對不起
你不記得它的樣子了嗎，尚
馬路經過教堂，風景美妙
那兒有片田野
丹托本的牛追過你
那是個漂亮的小房子，尚
還有玫瑰
你父親常為此取笑我
但他也很引以為榮
那不過是棟簡陋的小屋
小溪對面那個小地方
那棟簡陋的小屋，現在是誰的
是寡婦特蘭的，但她不住那裡
你想她肯賣嗎？ 不會
別那麼肯定，因為我要買
一個匹茲堡來的美國人
為何要買它
告訴你原因，麥克林弗林
年輕的小麥可芬諾
在我小時候，常幫我擦鼻涕
因為我是尚松頓
我出生在那棟小屋裡
我回故鄉了，而且打算留下來
這回答了你的所有問題了嗎
你這個愛管閒事的人
尚松頓
差不多這麼大
現在看看你
老天爺，他們在匹茲堡
都用什麼餵你
鋼，傻瓜
鋼和鐵，使人忘記地獄的恐怖
當你夠堅硬，夠強韌時
還有別的事
別的事，麥克林
好了，我本人出現了
那就是我，在散步
那個高大，相貌神聖的人
彼得蘭尼根，教區的神父
日安，神父
尚，這位是蘭尼根神父
神父，你能相信嗎？
這是生於殷尼斯費的尚松頓
從美國返鄉了 哈囉，神父
是的，我認識你的家人，尚
你祖父，他死於澳洲
在一個殖民地中
你父親也是個好人
真是個可怕的意外
你母親呢？
她死在美國，當時我十二歲
我會在明天的彌撒中為她祝福
你要來，七點鐘 我一定會去
好，尚，我要和麥克林說句話
是關於… 沒問題，神父
只要幾分鐘，是關於…
慢慢來，我到前面去等
尚
那是真的嗎？
她不可能是真的
胡說，那只是你渴極產生的幻覺
走吧，拿破倫
在這裡，我們稱之為柯漢
早安
不能那樣，不能那樣
那是無禮的舉止，尚松頓
誰叫你用聖水來碰手指頭
我只是想表示禮貌 你是怎麼了
也許你不知道追女孩的條件
得等到許可宣讀才行
而瑪麗凱丹納赫竟跟他手碰手
你說她叫什麼名字？
瑪麗凱丹納赫
別打任何主意 瑪麗凱
算了，尚，算了
將那個念頭收回去
為什麼？怎麼回事？
她還沒結婚吧？
結婚？那實在不可能
以她那種脾氣
她的紅頭髮是無人能比的
不過為了她的財富
也許還是有人能忍受
殷尼斯費最富有的女人
是寡婦特蘭
她沒有子女，可憐人
但她頗受敬重，並善待窮人
原來你出生在那裡，是嗎？
是，所有松頓家的人都生在那裡
一共有七代了 原來如此
你的計劃為何，松頓先生
你打算將懷特莫變成神聖之地嗎
或許成為要收費的導遊勝地
參觀所有松頓人出生的小屋
你是那種人嗎？ 不盡然
我的家族自諾曼人入侵時
便在愛爾蘭了，至今已三百年
但我們看不出有建紀念碑
或紀念堂的必要
特蘭太太，我指的不是二者
只是自小我就住在礦渣旁的破屋
我母親常提起殷尼斯費和懷特莫
殷尼斯費對我而言等於天堂
當我辭去…
當我決定到這裡時
我只有一個念頭…
殷尼斯費與天堂差遠了
夫人，丹納赫先生想見妳
我是指丹納赫紳士
將沾泥的鞋子擦乾淨
特蘭太太 美國來的松頓先生
是
我聽說的正是他，特蘭太太
是真的嗎？ 什麼是真的嗎？
他要背著我
偷走我面前的懷特莫
此事與你有何關係，威爾丹納赫
有何關係？
夠有關係了
我沒有提議以高價買那塊地嗎？
而且我的地就在妳的地旁邊
你可以保留你的提議
原來是真的，妳賣掉它了
我沒有
我一聽說此事，就知道是個謊言
沒錯，我對他說
派奇麥法蘭，我絕不相信
莎拉特蘭會賣掉懷特莫
你那樣做就像在侮辱我的朋友
她不會讓外人搬進來的
她又為何要那麼做？
我就猜得出妳會怎麼說
你是那麼跟他說的，是嗎？
沒錯 我猜是在酒館中
當著那些尖耳朵的大嘴巴
你可以用六百磅買到那塊地
成交 不行
610磅
我記得妳說過是七百磅
聽好，小傢伙
710磅 一千磅如何？
一千…
我對妳和在場者道別，特蘭太太
僅有一人例外
我將你記在我的簿子上了
我爸爸記得他爸爸
麥克松頓，他的肩膀真大
今早我見到他了
一個高大英俊的人
我正好經過教堂
你經過酒館時若也能走那麼快
情況或許會好些，窺視者
看看他們，在我家白吃
回田裡工作，快點，有工作要做
現在喝酒不嫌早嗎？
即使對你而言，都早了些
菲力，將簿子拿出來
將這個名字記下來
一個叫尚松頓的
看我的乾淨地板，你這隻髒豬
閉嘴 你也閉嘴
拿去，自己擦乾淨
否則今晚就沒有晚餐吃
好了，很乾淨了，對吧？
這個時候別和他計較，瑪麗凱
你只會這種事，馬屁精
菲力，我記的名字你記了嗎？
有 再劃上一條線
他活該，尚松頓
原來…他買了懷特莫侮辱了你
寡婦特蘭做得好
別理她的話，丹納赫紳士
別理她的話
你今晚應該慚愧
畢竟他比你更有權得到那塊地
他會終生後悔的
如果他能活那麼久
我將袋子留在這裡沒關係吧
我想應該沒問題
如果你們見到麥克林弗林
請告訴他我在酒館等他
我們的榮幸
尤其是要告訴麥克林弗林
謝謝
你還想知道什麼事嗎，美國人？
我若想起任何事，會告訴你們
晚安
愉快的夜晚
我要試試那種黑麥酒
波特？好的
先生，願和我一起喝嗎？
事實上，我想請所有人喝一杯
我想我沒聽過你的名字，高個的
松頓，尚松頓
你父親的名字是？
麥克，麥克松頓
他以前住在懷特曼
我剛買回那個地方
因此我才會來這裡
那你的祖父是…老尚松頓
對 祝福他的事蹟
原來你的名字是為了紀念他
那麼，如果是這樣
那的確是個愉快的夜晚
我們要喝一杯
晚安，神父
委員會的其他人呢？ 在等著
抱歉我們遲到了
魚回來了，對吧？神父
魚？我們改天再談，走吧
麥克林 報到
別管那些儀式了
現在是和平時期
沒錯，但我仍未放棄希望
你的美國人朋友在酒吧等你
他己經來了…
等一下，麥克林
他到底是誰？
他是個安靜祥和的人
回到故鄉愛爾蘭
以忘卻他的煩惱 煩惱？
對，他和所有美國人一樣有錢
但他有煩惱，很多煩惱
我來証明給你們看
那是什麼？ 他睡覺用的袋子
他稱之為睡袋
聽過睡袋這種東西嗎？
等你們看它鋪開來
解開繩子便知道百萬富翁的煩惱
打開繩子… 在這裡
尚松頓
殷尼斯費人歡迎你回故鄉 謝謝
殷尼斯費人歡迎你回故鄉
那句歡迎詞有什麼不對
你很清楚，紳士
我是殷尼斯費人
而且是最好的人
我就不歡迎任何笨得用一千磅
買價值不到兩百磅的土地的人
說得對，紳士
我不是聽說有個姓丹納赫的
出810磅嗎？
將簿子拿出來
記下他的名字
杜梅費 F-A-H-Y
沒有E，丹納赫紳士
你若有你自認的一半的好
一開始便不會妨礙松頓的權力
那也是我的看法
那塊地他有什麼權利
那是松頓家的地
你自己己有太多地了
請你閉嘴
根據程序，丹納赫紳士有發言權
我若有發言權
我會用來打那隻大猩猩
慢著，我不怪丹納赫先生生氣
誰在生氣
你這種人無法使丹納赫生氣
那只是一種語法，我無意…
那注意你的語法
重點是木己成舟
現在我擁有那塊地
既然我們要當鄰居…
鄰居
休想
我若逮到你涉足我的產業
我會…
還有一件事
你離我妹妹瑪麗凱遠一點
她不是你那種人
在我來的地方
我們不在酒館談論我們的女人
你似乎有此習慣
今早是寡婦特蘭 什麼？
是真的，你真該覺得丟臉
聽著，我並非指控瑪麗凱…
是他
就在今天早上
有本事讓他否認
在教堂後面，他冒然行事
我向她道早安
早安？
對，但你心裡想的是晚安
那是謊話
那是什麼？ 我說那是謊話
我不接受任何人那麼說
握起拳頭
我不跟你打架，丹納赫
我要跟你打架
別激動，丹納赫
你是怎麼回事？
他醉了，菲力，帶他回家吧
回家，紳士，別跟這個人開玩笑
你沒事吧，尚？
來吧，丹納赫，你說呢 休想
握這個人的手
否則週日彌撒時我會唸你的名字
握手吧，紳士，握吧
是我先加入愛爾蘭教會的
你很有信仰嗎？
快握他的手，照我的盼咐握手
快點 握手
你的力氣不小，丹納赫
我以前只握過無力的手
走吧
保羅神父
麥克林
跟我介紹你這位安靜祥和的人吧
無疑的，我們會成為朋友
給我一分鐘，讓血液循環一下
尚松頓
他的祖父真是個了不起的人
在澳洲定居
我原可訴說他的許多事蹟
可是，我的喉頭，好乾
過去吧
你確定不改變心意嗎，尚？
跟我回家去吧
不用擔心
我有睡袋，不是嗎？
這是個溫和的夜晚
因此我想去見我的同志們
談論一些叛國的事
晚安，尚 晚安，麥克林
神保佑你
你真無禮
誰允許你吻我
原來妳會說話
是的，當我願意時就會說
你再靠近我
得到的將不只是說話
別擔心，妳的拳頭很重
我想你會復原淡忘的
有些事男人是不容易淡忘的
例如…什麼？
例如一個女孩跑過田野的景象
陽光在她的頭髮上
跪在教堂中，臉孔如聖人
聖人！
現在到一個男人家中為他打掃
可是那只是好基督徒的行為
我知道那是什麼，瑪麗凱丹納赫
那是善心
不客氣
哈囉 早安，松頓先生
你好，神父…博士…
不，是先生
在正式場合，是普雷費爾牧師
這位是普雷費爾太太
松頓先生，你真了不起
它就像愛爾蘭小屋該有的樣子
但卻很罕見
只有美國人會想用翡翠綠
灰色較持久
還有玫瑰，真好
你將需要許多馬糞
我是指肥料，馬是最好的
我帶來一裸植物
你知道，我們河邊際的櫻草
是邊緣，不是邊際
讚美詩中寫的
詩人都很傻，不是嗎？
希望你不是，松頓先生
不是，夫人，我…
松頓
好像很耳熟
很耳熟（拳擊場）
松頓
是很普通的名字
謝謝妳的植物，普雷費爾太太
妳真是太好了
是一張床
失陪
早安 真是張大床，松頓先生
是我買得到最大的
那是張床或是遊樂場
那個人在那樣的床上
得用繩子才能抓住他太太
弗林先生
你穿得如此正式要做什麼？
我是…
我來… 看得出來
不過是從酒館來的，對吧
住嘴
妳的舌頭真壞
我該少管閒事
告訴松尚頓
沒有妳他會比較快活
等一下
你說什麼？
那就好好聽，別再取笑…媒人
我來，是應松尚頓之請
尚松頓 閉嘴
單身漢，以及甲方
他要我到此告知…
瑪麗凱丹納赫
老處女
以及乙方
怎麼樣？繼續說啊
我想一個好基督徒不會讓人
站在炎熱的太陽下吧
要到客廳來嗎？
房子或許是我哥哥的
但客廳裡的東西是我的
那麼，希望裡面有瓶酒
不管它是誰的
可能有
妳有隻堅定的好手
敬好交易
亦即
甲方 就是他
指示我先詢問
他再尋求進一步的交涉
看看乙方 就是我
是否贊同這個主意…
用他的美國式說法是…
是，他要知道妳是否願去進行
去進行？
妳若願意，他會找你哥哥談談
那不容易
我也是這麼想
他可能會用拳頭打我的牙齒
將我打個半死
告訴我，尚…
我是指甲方對我的財富有何看法
他說他才不…
他說他完全無所謂
真的？ 他說他才不…
他說他能養活妳
沒有它也沒關係
真的？
他大概以為我即使無適當嫁裝
也會嫁給任何男人
你可以告訴你的甲方先生
當我結婚時
屬於我的東西都得跟著過去
起來，小人兒
這些傢俱都是我的
我有瓷器和絲綢
及我父親留給我的五十磅金幣
我母親的耳環和胸針
我祖母的結婚面紗
銀玉米，扣子，和…
過去十五無我賺的三十多磅
就這些
妳是個很有錢的女人
我乾脆自己娶妳算了
妳將酒瓶放在哪裡？
請你告訴他
我不會嫁個瞧不起人的人
妳看過鬼嗎？ 沒有
我也沒有
你的威士忌要加點水嗎？
當我喝威士忌時，我喝威士忌
當我喝水時，我喝水
但回到正事上
我要如何告訴尚松頓
瑪麗凱丹納赫的意思
你可以告訴他，我說…
我願意去進行
我的樣子如何？ 很好
我要說些什麼？
不用，由我來發言
我則像個笨蛋站在一旁嗎？
別吵
威尔，有人來訪
谁？ 是…
是麥克林弗林和…
有位先生和他在一起
來，威爾，穿上你的外套
威爾丹納赫，他們要由前門進來
我的後門何時不適用了
神祝福這一家的人 晚安
丹納赫小姐
我們想和妳哥哥談談
請進來，歡迎
慢一點
尚松頓先生，單身漢
見過瑪麗凱丹納赫小姐，老處女
丹納赫小姐
見過松頓先生
來自美國麻薩諸塞州匹茲堡
晚安，丹納赫小姐
這邊…
這邊請
這是我哥哥… 離開房間
可是… 我叫妳離開房間
是，威爾
坐下，椅子是做什麼用的
若是來晚餐，你遲到了
感激你的邀請，謝了
我想這兒沒有酒吧？
自己倒杯牛奶吧
牛奶？
波爾多比較適合
我們請你允許討論此行的目的
我想你注意到我穿著正式黑外套
是的，你這個朋友死了嗎？
我不需要人為我處理事情
原來如此
你過去十年和寡婦特蘭之間
大有進展囉？
原來你是來談這件事的
不是，是瑪麗凱和他的事
滾出去
即使他是世上最後的男人
我妹妹是最後的女人，我仍反對
等一下 你得考慮那女孩的財富
財富，即使她一文不值
我仍反對
走吧，麥克林，我說過沒用的
我自己跟她解釋 美國人
我數到三
屆時你若未離開，我便放狗咬你
你若說三，先生
便永遠聽不到人數到十
瑪麗凱，他…
我們試過了
我們改天再來找他
還是謝謝你，尚松頓
妳不認為這能改變什麼吧
妳說的才算數，不是他
好了，尚，你太過份了，夠了
怎麼回事？我們要結婚，不是嗎
我不懂
這裡是愛爾蘭，不是美國
沒有她哥哥的同意
她不能也不會答應
我為你們倆感到遺憾
那段日子真不好
尚的臉色和他的黑馬一樣陰暗
我發現他們氣味相投
他們之一跌斷脖子只是遲早的事
我們知道事情不能再如此繼續
慢一點，尚 老天！
哈囉，瑪麗凱丹納赫
早安，尚松頓
於是我們擬了一個陰謀
普雷費爾牧師先生夫人
麥克林和…
聖徒原諒，我本人
在殷尼斯費賽馬大會那天
我們為威爾丹納赫張掛陷阱
記得我告訴你的
打它能跑得更快 是，神父
小心點騎，兒子 是，媽
松頓，沒穿騎士裝
你的顏色，松頓 謝謝
祝好運
女士先生們，請注意
願意為殷尼斯費賽馬獎杯
獻出帽子的可愛女士們
請將帽子放在終點線上
女士們，請獻出帽子
妳不獻出妳的帽子嗎，瑪麗凱
我不要 不要？
不要
好，麥克林，寡婦的帽子
請參賽騎士到起跑線去
請所有騎士都過去
一克朗，20比1赌美國人贏
20比1赌美國人贏
30比1...
40比1赌丹納赫贏
麥克林
你若在為松頓和我的寡婦牽紅線
我會將你記在我的薄子裡
你聽說了？
蘭尼根神父，這個美國人怎麼了
前一刻是我妹妹，接著是她
除了怪你，怨不得別人
你若找我當媒人
你和寡婦早就結婚了 沒錯
不過現在還不嫌遲 什麼意思？
你想寡婦特蘭為何抗拒你那麼久
你是個大男人，對吧？ 沒錯
是個有錢人？ 對，她也知道
神父，要告訴他嗎？
說吧，麥克林
哪種女人肯與另一女人
同住一個屋簷下
你若擺脫瑪麗凱，寡婦馬上答應
不會吧
是的，你有機會，卻自己搞砸了
你拒絕尚松頓，他要報復
即使你給你妹妹一千磅
他都不一定肯娶她
蘭尼根神父
我不能說那是事實，我也不否認
但有這種謠傳 非常多謠傳
很多謠傳？
兩個女人同居，一個未婚
兩個女人
神父萬歲，聖母萬歲
早安，瑪麗凱，早安，孩子們
早安
別呆坐著，去放妳的帽子
我不做那種丟臉的事
妳要 我不要
不放帽子，瑪麗凱？真可惜
現在停止下注
停止出售任何酒類飲料
我是認真的
士官長，請發號
那個美國人慢了
賈皮犯規
看那個瘋狂的丹納赫
他若現在跌斷脖子豈非大快人心
也許會，看神的旨意
威爾，威爾，加油
保羅神父犯規 我沒看見
加油，尚
我是說保羅神父
松頓 他拿了妳的帽子，莎拉
精彩賽馬，你騎得和騎兵一樣
騎兵！是騎士之刺
我就知道在某處見過你
既然你知道，希望你守密
別提了
我了解，那是我們的秘密 謝謝
妳的帽子，特蘭太太
獎杯給優勝者
謝謝
弗林
你的提議還算數嗎？
這…這得視情況而定
你出五百磅
350磅，一分都不再多
我會和我的甲方談談
早安
快點
好啦！我己經宣讀許可聲明
也沒有人反對
我允許這個人追求我妹妹
但得遵守一般條件
弗林先生
你願承擔一切責任嗎？ 是的
自現在起
他們會在我的監視下散步交談
好，追求開始
不准那樣，不可以
手放下來
到車子的另一邊去
上去吧 謝謝，神父
走吧
我不懂，為何要有你跟著
在美國，我會駕車
按喇叭，快速跑…
快速跑？我不是那種女人
美國！禁酒！
看到那兒了嗎？
那是古代弗林的家
被老天爺搶走的
快點，拿破倫
你們是我見過最怪的一對
以這種速度，絕不會有結果
下去吧
我讓你們在前面走，習慣對方
不，她是個健康的女孩
請別碰手
天氣真好 是，松頓先生
妳戴的帽子很漂亮
帽子？別跟我提帽子
你將它留在上面，像…
別激動，別激動
這是追求或是打鬥
守規矩，在他成為妳丈夫後
在他打妳的背以後，才能打他
對不起
我有個可怕的脾氣
與其以後才發現，不如現在知道
我們丹納赫家的人好鬥
我想得出許多
可以和其中一個丹納赫做的事
丹納赫小姐
松頓先生，弗林先生會怎麼想
妳會騎腳踏車嗎？
那還等什麼？
瑪麗凱丹納赫，尚
走吧
回來！回來！真不要臉，回來
回來！真丟臉
回來，快點回來
我想他們應該比我理智才對
別動
六個月前，若有人告訴我
今天我會在殷尼斯費墓園中
和我將親吻的女孩在這裡
我會告訴他…
但親吻是很久以後的事
我們剛開始追求，下個月散步
再下個月是茶會，再下個月是
不
也許不用等到那個月 對
或是小茶會 不用
或是一起出去散步 不用
那你的糟糕不算什麼，尚松頓
因為我也有同感
於是，他們結婚了
在我為他們施洗的同一教堂中
之後，是個安靜的小慶祝會
敬成功的陰謀
敬新娘與新郎 等一下
在看到新娘的嫁裝前不可以
新娘的嫁裝你們會看到的
不用怕 請讓我們現在看吧
儀式應該公開
蘭尼根神父 菲力
350磅金幣
首飾，絲綢和錫器
都給威爾丹納赫的妹妹
那麼，舉杯祝福
願他們地久天長，幸福快樂
願子孫滿堂，健康平安
願他們的生活平和自由
牧師，神父，女士先生們
請注意，丹納赫紳士要發言
易言之，他有話要告訴大家
謝謝
我要宣佈一件事
柯漢，添滿每個人的酒杯
今天，我為我妹妹主婚
我唯一的妹妹
現在她走了
離開丹納赫家
但沒有女人，家哪算是家 沒錯
沒錯，沒有女人哪像家
對，沒有女人哪像家
沒有女人，哪來男人
連蘭尼根神父都有母親
不然要怎樣
對，不然要怎樣？
因此
因此…
因此，不再多言
我要舉杯祝我自己
他就快結婚了
她只需要說出那個字
我們何時結婚，莎拉達令
結…
你失去理智了嗎？結婚？
可是，莎拉達令
別叫我達令，笨蛋
誰給你權利，做此宣佈的
可是，莎拉
他們都說…
普雷費爾牧師先生，牧師太太
蘭尼根神父
小弗林
麥克林，你不是告訴我…
不，我沒有，有嗎？
你說謊，對吧
你們全說謊
你們說謊己經夠糟了
卻還有我的神父
你是藉著卑劣手段得到她的
你要他們這麼做的
我不知道你在說什麼 別否認
威爾，拜託 丹納赫，你真瘋狂
我瘋狂嗎？ 威爾
我不給嫁裝，永遠不給
現在滾出去，全部滾
牧師先生，女士先生們 滾
瑪麗凱，走吧，我們回家
不，除非帶走我的嫁裝
那是我的，我母親的
我不要…
別激動，騎士，別激動
我們回家吧
我從小便夢想著
身邊有我自己的東西
我的紡織機
放那裡
桌子放這裡
還有我自己的椅子可以休息
梳裝台放那個角落
我的瓷器錫器，在我身邊發亮
現在…
我不知道妳對此會有此感受
但感覺似乎很小題大作
只是小傢俱和雜物
這是個漂亮的小屋，不是嗎
是啊
我是這麼認為
別碰我
你沒有權利 這話是什麼意思
我會戴你的戒指
我會燒飯洗衣
我會照顧土地，但僅止於此
在我取得我的嫁裝之前
我不是己婚婦女
我一直是個僕人
沒有我自己的土地
那太荒謬了，妳是我太太
這是怎麼回事？
我不是一直努力要告訴你嗎？
在你取得我的嫁裝前，未得到我
我，我本人
我仍會夢想著置身我的東西之中
好似我未認識過你
我的東西裡有三百年的快樂夢想
我要它們
我要我的夢想
我會得到它們，我知道
我不再跟你多說
好吧！
妳會有妳的嫁裝或財富的
那就去拿到它
我們之聞沒有門栓或鎖，瑪麗凱
只有妳那賞利的小心眼
尚 睡得好嗎？
請別在你朋友面前令我蒙羞
什麼？
好
哈囉，屋裡的，有人起來了嗎？
早安
我想此刻來訪是早了一些
昨晚你們離開後，瑪麗凱
我們幾個人說服丹納赫改變心意
那可稱之為遲來的結婚禮物
我的東西
我的傢俱
我們原想昨晚送來，尚
但礙於情勢
我們想你們應該己經入睡
謝了
慢一點，慢慢來
神保佑你們
很好，小心
那邊，靠牆邊
不，轉過來，讓陽光照在音樂上
太好了
這個要放哪裡？
很方便
那是我母親的，以及她母親的
要放哪裡？
你想呢？
嫁裝的事很遺憾，瑪麗凱
我們無法逼他改變心意
連蘭尼根神父都不行
讓他留著吧
留著我的財富？
是，妳己有妳的桌椅了
何必在乎他的錢？ 是我的錢
對他若如此重要就給他吧，讓開
我嫁的人是什麼態度
我想比妳認為的還好，瑪麗凱
真猛烈
我的天
現在我知道這個國家
為何有如此多石牆了
玫瑰？你在種玫瑰嗎？ 對
你可真是個好農夫
翻土不為種包心菜或馬鈴薯
閉嘴
抱歉
我…我想環繞小屋定很好看
這是個漂亮的小屋，不是嗎？
我想是
我想想看
我們需要翻土具，耕耘機
播種用的種子
至於耕田的馬
可以用你那匹黑獵人
我會買另一匹做農事
何不買部牽引機
牽引機，氣味難聞
況且又很昂貴
馬也有優點 對
對玫瑰有好處
又是玫瑰
你…
我們可以到凱索鎮採購
若走快點，晚餐時便能回來了
五哩！
那只是… 伸伸腳的好機會
好吧，去換妳的走路鞋
我馬上好
妳不是讓人按喇叭的女人，是嗎
真美，你看過如此…
它的樣子好像能飛
只有一匹馬力，但它是妳的
我的 當然，妳想妳會趕車嗎
帽子抓穩
你來處理，菲力
好了，我們再喝一杯，我請客
也該是時候了
什麼 我說很好，紳士，很好
祝大家健康
看，他賣掉叉枝了 什麼？
他一直想賣掉的羊
快點，現在是向他要的好機會
去啊！去啊！ 向他要什麼？
我的錢
現在他不能說他沒錢了
妳還不懂我並非為錢娶妳嗎？
我對錢毫不在意
但他在乎，那才是重點
現在去向他要吧
不，何必自取其辱
自取其辱？丟臉的是你不是我
我也是，我嫁了個無用的人
那是妳對我的看法嗎？
你若讓他搶走我的錢，還算什麼
錢？我己厭倦老是談論它
你們丹納赫家的人只會想到錢嗎
安靜 神父，我…
看到岩石後那條了嗎？
它是鮭魚之王 此事很重要
它在對我示意 我得和你談談
我等它己等十年了
我得和你談談，此事很重要
是關於我丈夫和我自己
神父，我…
你瞧…
神父，我能用愛爾蘭話說嗎？
是…
睡袋，神父
扣子還…
女人
愛爾蘭或許是個貧窮的國家
但在此，己婚男人睡床上
而非袋中
為了妳好，我告訴妳…
釣到它了！ 拉它上來，神父
就是它，我己等它十多年了
它的頭出來了 那隻鮭魚真凶
將它的頭拉出來，神父
繩子拉緊
我逮到你了！
我逮到他了！
繩子拉得真緊
將它的頭拉起來
瑪麗凱，幫忙拿網來
十年來，我…
我…終於抓到了
你抓到他了，神父
讓它的頭朝上，笨蛋
拿網來
拿網來，傻瓜
神保佑我們
睡袋！
你來得正是時候，來喝一杯
加入我們吧，尚
和我們喝一杯吧，尚
不，謝了
我要和你談談，私下談
你若有話要跟我說，就在這裡說
我寧可在私下跟你談
怎麼了，你的身邊都是朋友啊
他們一度幫過你，不是嗎？
也許他們會再度為你而戰
我並不要求任何人為我而戰
原來你現在願自己來了
你知道我為何而來
我知道，只是想聽你親口說
說吧，美國人
你將會粉身碎骨
我出二十磅緒他贏，丹納赫
沒錯
如果我將拳頭插在口袋中呢
來啊！右或左？你來選吧
選啊！那不是很公平嗎？
無畏的打手
是松頓先生，西爾
所以我請他進來了
老天，進來，坐下
你將最後一個環彈進去了嗎？
是的 沒作弊？沒有
你會玩彈環嗎？
不會，我…
也許我不該冒然造訪 胡說
你那漂亮的妻子好嗎？ 很好
伊莉莎白，跟松頓先生道晚安
但他剛來…
好吧，晚安，松頓先生 晚安
晚安，西爾 晚安，伊莉莎白
祝妳有個好夢
你確定… 晚安，伊莉莎白
你是我唯一能傾訴的對象
我得和某人談談，否則會發瘋
一定是丹納赫 對
既然你知道我是誰
便知道我為何不願打架
是，今天晚上我也想到此事
有些人收集蝴蝶
有些人收集郵票
我的愛好一向是運動，運動事件
有了，騎士之刺退出拳壇
重量級挑戰者在致命擊倒後退隱
誓言不再出拳
是很能理解的反應
報上都說是個意外
只是一個意外
在剪貼簿上或許是意外，但…
當你銘記在心時不是
東尼葛達洛是個好手
有個好妻子，家庭，幾個孩子
乾淨的拳擊手
但我不是去擊敗他的
我是去將他打得頭破血流的
我的舉止宛如謀殺
那正是我做的事，為了什麼？
錢包
一張張門票
差勁的錢
現在錢是你與丹納赫之間的問題
他以為我害怕打架
還有朋友，甚至我太太
以某方面而言，不是嗎？
你殺過人嗎？
我有…
大家只提到她的大財富
並不那麼重要
對她而言卻是
這對你這個由美國來的人而言
或許很奇怪
但卻是這兒的老傳統
相信我，那是好傳統
財富對她的意義不只是錢
對我而言卻是，不值得為此而戰
值得為之而戰的是你太太的愛
我說不上來
我只知道…
我不能也不願打架
除非不得不打
如果那意味要失去她…
我不知道，也許她不夠愛我
很困難的情況
但我想假以時日
你定能在神的旨意下找到答案
屆時，但願我仍在這裡
你該不是想離開此地吧
有可能
我的主教明天要來做無度拜訪
我的聚會所那麼小
只有兩，三人來做禮拜
他也許會將我調走
沒有了你，這兒將不復往昔
伊莉莎白和我很愛這個地方
我們也是在此出生的
但願主教能讓我留下來
對了，別低估丹納赫
他或許笨拙
但他的右鉤拳很有力
我年輕時也打過拳擊
你不會笑吧？
是個紀念
輕量級冠軍
19… 年代無關緊要
是很久以前的事了
太好了
對了，你是否願和我喝杯…
不
不行
氣味定會被聞出來
吃過晚餐了嗎？ 沒有
我不餓
有時喝酒會使人致死
我沒有喝過任何東西
妳若要知道，我…
和普雷費爾先生談過
真奇怪
我和蘭尼根神父長談過了
家裡的女人，我的早餐呢
瑪麗凱
省省力氣吧
她離開你了，那也難怪
你在說些什麼？她在哪裡？
她天未亮就來找我
要我送她到火車站去
為什麼 我也問了同樣的問題
她說：因為我愛他
我太愛他
無法再與我引以為恥的人生活
那時幾點 都柏林火車的時間
幫我的馬上鞍，好嗎？
幫馬上鞍
我再幫你使她更丟臉便不可原諒
上馬鞍
我們走了
容我說句話，卡斯特洛先生
火車己遲到四個半小時
不，原本便該如此，歐比利先生
神有全能之力
我是冠軍，所有…
你若如你所說的了解本國史
但知道郵便士過去22無來
從未在仙倫以西被打敗過
沒錯，馬隆尼先生
謊話！卡斯特洛
這是否意味著我希望的意思
丹納赫對美國人
我一直在等這一天
早安
日安，先生
你說五分鐘？
好
他帶著她走回來了
走這條漫長的路
是她的功勞，只能說是她的功勞
要成家得先使男人生氣
你的槍呢？ 在同樣的地方
對不起，將軍
一槍準備，兩槍開始
丹納赫這次得倒大霉了
殷尼斯費的大日子
在這種日子裡，我只能說一句話
各位先生，本店請客
不是嗎？
達令，妳的鞋在這裡
你…
只有五哩路
是伸伸腿的好機會
夫人，妳的鞋掉了
謝謝你的好心，先生
放手
先生
這是根棍子
讓你打這位漂亮的太太
謝謝
（出外喝茶）
我想你的妹婿來拜訪你了
愛爾蘭紳士
丹納赫，你欠我350磅
拿出來吧
原來他也有些愛爾蘭血統
他若是威爾丹納赫
你那棟房子的每塊石頭都會倒塌
漂亮的感想
我永遠不會付錢
那破壞了所有約定
你可以將你妹妹帶回去
那是你們的習俗，不是我的
沒有財富便沒有婚姻
我們就此叫停
你對我做這種事
你自己的妻子
在我… 就此結束
這是你的髒錢，拿去
數清楚
聽著
我若再見到你，就會揍扁你
攻擊
我要回家去了
我會幫你準備好晚餐
小心他的下流手段，尚
好，你是自找的
3比1，赌丹納赫贏
我下十磅赌松頓贏
成，還有別人嗎？
赌我的朋友美國人…
各位先生
拜託，這是個私人打鬥
伊莉莎白女王的規則必須遵守
記住伊莉莎白女王的規則，紳士
我沒意見，麥克林
謝了
雙方請保持超然立場
現在握手，開始打架
謝謝各位
聽到了嗎，各位
伊莉莎白女王的規則
快點起來，是伊莉莎白女王規則
希望他被打得失去知覺
松頓先生是個己婚的人，莎拉
誰管他，我關心的是那個大粗漢
”我是殷尼斯費最好的人”
我卻不知道
打電話給拜倫羅
告訴他們這兒有打鬥
派些支援過來
拜倫羅…
5比1赌那個大傢伙贏
下注或做莊？ 下注 做莊
你受夠了嗎？ 沒有
那拉我一把吧
是，督察，謝謝你，長官
他怎麼說？
他說下五磅赌丹納赫贏
再加十磅赌松頓贏
再加十磅
一磅赌丹納赫
兩磅赌丹納赫先生
弗林先生
兩磅，好的
打過數以百計的戰鬥
見過成千的救世主
屹立在勝利戰場上
帶扣扭曲，破劍握在強壯手中
無數的傷口的血
由他的血管流出
滴在聖人的身體上
神父！蘭尼根神父！
鎮上有大打鬥
我正在和魚大戰
我原本想阻止，可是…
你去阻止吧！那是你的責任
但打架的是丹納赫和尚松頓
誰？ 丹納赫和尚松頓
你怎麼不早說
神父，我們現在不該阻止嗎？
應該，孩子，那是我們的職責
是我們的職責
起來，快點
赌注情況如何 勢均力敵，尚
但別搞砸了
丹納赫，我得說你是個好打手
我也要說，打敗你是我的榮幸
謝了
你能再收赌松頓的二十磅嗎
不，停止下注了
一磅赌松頓擊敗紳士
滾開，你這個叛徒
在殺死自己前去喝杯酒如何？
由本店請客 好主意，尚
格隆谷的人要搭巴士來
數以千計 那是好主意
我不累，我還很有精神
你的樣子糟透了，我們走
那是個酒館嗎？ 是，閣下
他們要進去嗎？ 是，閣下
那表示打架結束了嗎？
不，那只是第一局結束
退後，退後，讓他們安靜喝酒
我想想看，威士忌？
不，那太熱，會使血液沸騰
波爾多最適當
裡面真祥和安靜，不是嗎？
是啊
你知道…
這是我期待己久的打架
但願你能支撐到最後
不用擔心
你知道，美國人
我變得蠻喜歡你的
我也變得喜歡你
你的寡婦，我妹妹
她原本可能更糟 沒錯
可憐的女人
謝了，再倒滿
你休想請我喝酒
酒由柯漢酒館請客
我不讓你請客，你這個小烏賊
我請客
等你清醒再請我，之前不行
我請客
毛巾
幾點了？ 五點半，先生
老天爺
希望你別生我的氣，西爾
我輸特蘭太太三磅
我知道我不該緒博，可是…
在這裡，十五磅
哈囉，伊莉莎白 閣下
妳整天都在做什麼
恕我失陪，我去準備茶點，討厭
屋裡的女人
我帶哥哥來吃晚餐了
很歡迎
神保佑這一家人
擦乾淨你的腳 謝謝妳，太太
坐下，椅子是做什麼用的
快點
好啦！
祥和寧靜再度回到殷尼斯費
我們正要…
老天，那個女人現在要做什麼
讓開，她會撞到你的子女的
好
當普雷費爾牧師先生下來時
我要大家熱情歡呼
現在散開
不准碰手指，請注意
必須遵守禮節
坐稳，走吧
终
