the Cherry tree Carol 歌詞


Joseph was an old man,
約瑟夫是個老頭子
And an old man was he,
他年老體衰
When he married Virgin Mary,
當他和聖母瑪利亞
The Queen of Galilee. ——
加利利女王結婚的時候

As Mary and Joseph
一天瑪利亞和約瑟夫
Were walking one day
在散步
To an orchard of cherry trees
偶然地他們來到
They chanced for to stray.
一片櫻桃園

Then Mary said to Joseph,
於是瑪利亞對約瑟夫
So meek and so mild,
溫柔地說
“Pick me some cherries, Joseph,
為我摘一些櫻桃吧,約瑟夫
For I am with child.”
因為我懷孕了

But Joseph flew angry,
但約瑟夫勃然大怒
So angry flew he,
他是那麼的生氣
“Let the father of your baby
讓你孩子的父親
Gather cherries for thee.”
來給你採櫻桃吧

Then up spoke Lord Jesus
這時主耶穌說話了
From in his mother's womb,
從他母親的子宮裡
“Bow low down, cherry trees,
低下來,櫻桃樹
Bow down to the ground.”
低到地上來

And the cherry trees all bowed down,
然後櫻桃樹都壓低了樹枝
Bowed low to the ground,
低到了地上
And Mary gathered cherries
於是瑪利亞自己采了櫻桃
While Joseph stood round.
而約瑟夫在旁邊呆呆地站著

Then Joseph he kneeled down
然後約瑟夫
All upon his right knee,
右膝著地跪了下來
“Come tell me, pretty baby,
來告訴我,可愛的孩子
When your birthday shall be.”
你將會何時出生

“On the fifth day of January
一月五日
My birthday shall be,
將會是我的生日
And the stars in the heaven
那時天上的群星
Shall all bow down to me.”
都會向我致敬
