In The Bleak MidwinterCarolan's Cap
在那寂静的隆冬,风霜声婉转
In the bleak midwinter, frost wind made moan
池塘结成水晶般,大地坚如钢
Earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone
银装飘扬,雪儿纷纷,缓缓降
Snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow
在那寂静的隆冬,许久以前
In the bleak midwinter, long ago
小天使与天使长,或已齐聚彼端
基路伯与撒拉弗,在空中熙攘
Angels and archangels may have gathered there
然唯有祂母亲,福佑的处子
Cherubim and Seraphim thronged the air
施慈爱轻吻,受爱慕敬仰
But his mother only, in her maiden bliss
贫穷当如我,该何以为报?
Worshiped the beloved with a kiss
若我为牧者,我愿献上羔羊
若我为智者,我愿尽所职责
What can I give him, poor as I am?
可此时此时,惟将真心奉上
If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb
If I were a Wise Man, I would do my part
Yet what I can I give him:give my heart
