My Yiddishe Momma - Anne Shelton
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Of things I should be thankful
我本该心怀感恩的事
For I've had a goodly share
因我已得到丰厚馈赠
And as I sit here in the comfort of my cosy chair
当我舒适地坐在安乐椅上
My fancy takes me to a humble eastside tenement
思绪却飘回简陋的东区公寓
Three flights up in the rear to
爬上三层后楼梯
Where my childhood days were spent
那里承载着我的童年时光
It wasn't much like Paradise but 'mid the dirt and all
虽不像天堂般美好 在尘埃中
There sat the sweetest angel one that I fondly call
那里坐着最温柔的天使 我深情呼唤的人
My yiddishe momme I need her more then ever now
我的犹太母亲 此刻比任何时候都需要她
My yiddishe momme I'd like to kiss that wrinkled brow
我的犹太母亲 多想亲吻她布满皱纹的额头
I long to hold her hands once more as in days gone by
渴望再次握住她的手 就像从前那样
And ask her to forgive me for things
请求她原谅那些
I did that made her cry
曾让她落泪的往事
How few were her pleasures
她拥有的快乐多么稀少
She never cared for fashion's styles
从不追逐时尚潮流
Her jewels and treasures
她的珍宝与财富
She found them in her baby's smiles
都藏在孩子的笑靥里
Oh I know that I owe what I am today
我深知今日的成就
To that dear little lady so old and gray
全归功于那位白发苍苍的慈母
To that wonderful yiddishe momme of mine
我那伟大的犹太母亲啊
How few were her pleasures
她拥有的快乐多么稀少
She never cared for fashion's styles
从不追逐时尚潮流
Her jewels and treasures
她的珍宝与财富
She found them in her baby's smiles
都藏在孩子的笑靥里
Oh I know that I owe what I am today
我深知今日的成就
To that dear little lady so old and gray
全归功于那位白发苍苍的慈母
To that wonderful yiddishe momme of mine
我那伟大的犹太母亲啊
