The Cherry Tree Carol 歌词


Joseph was an old man,
约瑟夫是个老头子
And an old man was he,
他年老体衰
When he married Virgin Mary,
当他和圣母玛利亚
The Queen of Galilee. ——
加利利女王结婚的时候

As Mary and Joseph
一天玛利亚和约瑟夫
Were walking one day
在散步
To an orchard of cherry trees
偶然地他们来到
They chanced for to stray.
一片樱桃园

Then Mary said to Joseph,
于是玛利亚对约瑟夫
So meek and so mild,
温柔地说
“Pick me some cherries, Joseph,
为我摘一些樱桃吧,约瑟夫
For I am with child.”
因为我怀孕了

But Joseph flew angry,
但约瑟夫勃然大怒
So angry flew he,
他是那么的生气
“Let the father of your baby
让你孩子的父亲
Gather cherries for thee.”
来给你采樱桃吧

Then up spoke Lord Jesus
这时主耶稣说话了
From in his mother's womb,
从他母亲的子宫里
“Bow low down, cherry trees,
低下来,樱桃树
Bow down to the ground.”
低到地上来

And the cherry trees all bowed down,
然后樱桃树都压低了树枝
Bowed low to the ground,
低到了地上
And Mary gathered cherries
于是玛利亚自己采了樱桃
While Joseph stood round.
而约瑟夫在旁边呆呆地站着

Then Joseph he kneeled down
然后约瑟夫
All upon his right knee,
右膝着地跪了下来
“Come tell me, pretty baby,
来告诉我,可爱的孩子
When your birthday shall be.”
你将会何时出生

“On the fifth day of January
一月五日
My birthday shall be,
将会是我的生日
And the stars in the heaven
那时天上的群星
Shall all bow down to me.”
都会向我致敬
