1 我爱回想往日,
那不再回来的岁月,
那时我在母亲门旁
享受童年的游戏;
穿过我灵魂的各间屋子,
似乎有甘甜的回声响起;
那首古老的诗歌似乎再次滚动,
是母亲曾唱的。
1 I love to think of other days,
Of years that come no more,
When I enjoy’d my childhood plays,
Beside my mother’s door;
And thro’ the cambers of my soul
Sweet echoes seem to ring;
Once more that old hymn seems to roll
That mother used to sing.
耶稣,我灵魂的爱者,
求让我飞向你的怀中,
当近处的水涌流,
当风暴仍然猛烈。
Jesus, lover of my soul,
Let me to Thy bosom fly,
While the billows near me roll,
While the tempest still is high.
2 当冬天使大地显得光秃,
夜晚漫长,
我常站在她的椅旁,
听一些圣诗;
当她那丰富清亮的声音里,
响起最甜美的音乐;
我想天使也在近旁盘旋,
来听母亲歌唱。
2 When winter made the earth seem bare,
And evenings then were long,
I used to stand beside her chair
To hear some sacred song;
When from her voice so rich and clear,
The sweetest music rang;
Methinks the angels hover’d near
To hear when mother sang.
更接近你,我的神,
更接近你:
纵然那使我升高的,
是一副十字架!
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee;
E’en tho’ it be a cross,
That raiseth me!
3 我母亲深爱她的家人,
却更爱她的救主;
她已与祂同去居住,
在那天上的海岸。
哦,她亲爱的面容何等发光,
令人想起春天,
当母亲用几乎神圣的音符
歌唱的时候。
3 My mother loved her family well,
But lov’d her Saviour more;
And she has gone with Him to dwell
On that celestial shore.
Oh, how her dear face used to shine,
Reminding one of spring,
As when in notes almost divine
My mother used to sing.
万岁,耶稣之名的权能!
愿天使俯伏下拜!
请取出王的冠冕,
为祂加冕,作万有的主;
请取出王的冠冕,
为祂加冕,作万有的主。
All hail the pow’r of Jesus name!
Let angels prostrate fall!
Bring forth the royal diadem,
And crown Him Lord of all;
Bring forth the royal diadem,
And crown Him Lord of all.
4 虽然朋友在此聚在我四围,
是真诚善良的朋友;
然而像亲爱的母亲这样的朋友,
我在世上永远找不到。
但在这里最好的朋友也必分离,
虽然我们紧紧相依,
我在童年就略知一二,
当母亲歌唱的时候。
4 Tho’ friends may gather round me here,
Friends who are true and kind;
Yet such a friend as mother dear
On earth I’ll never find.
But here the best of friends must part,
Tho’ closely we may cling,
I learn’d in childhood this in part
When mother used to sing.
我基督徒的朋友们,在爱的联结中,
你们的心最甘甜地联合,
你们的友情如牵引的带子,
然而我们必须伸出分别的手。
你们的陪伴甘甜,你们的联合亲爱,
你们的话语使我耳朵喜悦,
然而当我看见我们必须分别,
你们如绳索般牵引我心。
My Christian friends in bonds of love,
Whose hearts in sweetest union join,
Your friendship’s like a drawing band,
Yet we must take the parting hand.
Your company’s sweet, your union dear,
Your words delightful to my ear,
Yet when I see that we must part,
You draw, like cords around my heart.
5 我在人生路上有过我的苦难,
有过我的疑惑与惧怕;
我在忧伤中背负我的重担,
而盼望已擦干我的眼泪;
因为在上面眼泪永不流,
罪在那里不留毒钩,
我很久以前就学到这点,
当母亲歌唱的时候。
5 I’ve had my troubles on life’s road,
I’ve had my doubts and fears;
Thro’ sorrow I have borne my load
While hope has dried my tears;
For tears up there will never flow,
Sin there will leave no sting,
I learn’d of this long years ago
When mother used to sing.
在那里没有忧伤,
在那里没有忧伤,
在爱满溢的天上,
在那里没有忧伤。
There’ll be no sorrow there,
There’ll be no sorrow there,
In heav’n above where all is love,
There’ll be no sorrow there.
