In the Bleak Midwinter - Susie Tallman/Merrie Amsterburg
In the bleak midwinter
在阴冷的隆冬
Frosty wind made moan
寒风呼啸
Earth stood hard as iron
大地坚硬如铁
Water like a stone;
水结成了冰
Snow on snow had fallen
雪花纷飞
Snow on snow snow on snow
大地白茫茫一片
In the bleak midwinter long ago
很久以前 在阴冷的隆冬
Angels and archangels may have gathered there
天使们或许都相聚在一起
Cherubim and seraphim thronged the air;
智天使和六翼天使齐聚空中
But His mother only
唯独他的母亲
In her maiden bliss
只是沉浸在自己的幸福之中
Worshipped the beloved with a kiss
献上一个吻 向深爱的人表达崇敬之意
What can I give Him poor as I am
如此平凡的我 能给予他什么呢
If I were a shepherd
如果我是牧羊人
I would bring a lamb;
我会带给他一只羔羊
If I were a Wise Man
如果我是智者
I would do my part;
我会发挥我的聪明才智
Yet what I can I give Him:
但此时 我所能给予他的
Give my heart
只能是我的心
