5-11 慈母颂

Mother Machree

 

There's a spot in my heart

 

which no colleen may own;

 

There's a depth in my soul

 

never sounded or known;

 

There's a place in my memory

 

my life that you fill;

 

No other can take it

 

no one ever will;

 

Every sorrow or care

 

in the dear days gone by;

 

Was made bright by the light

 

of the smile in your eye;

 

Like a candle that's set

 

in a window at night;

 

Your fond love has cheered me

 

and guided me right;

 

Sure I love the dear silver

 

that shines in your hair;

 

And the brow that's all furrowed¹

 

and wrinkled² with care;

 

I kiss the dear fingers

 

so toil³ warm for me;

 

Oh! God bless you and

 

keep you, mother machree!

 

慈母颂

 

在我的心灵之中

有个地方，深不可测

其境从未与闻

哪个少女也难问津；

在我的记忆之中

我的生命充满你的身影

谁也不能取代

永远无人有此真情；

珍贵时光悠悠逝去

辛劳烦扰却永不消停

你眼中的微笑，其光彩

使烦劳转为光明；

宛如点燃的烛光

深夜透窗棂

你深情的爱激励我

引领我一直前进；

是的，我爱你如银的发丝

闪烁着深情的光芒

我爱你额上道道皱纹

岁月刻满沧桑

我吻你勤劳的手指

双手柔情温暖我心房；

啊，慈母在我心

苍天保佑，福寿永绵长！
