Mother Machree

  There's a spot in my heart

  which no colleen may own;

  There's a depth in my soul

  never sounded or known;

  There's a place in my memory

  my life that you fill;

  No other can take it

  no one ever will;

  Every sorrow or care

  in the dear days gone by;

  Was made bright by the light

  of the smile in your eye;

  Like a candle that's set

  in a window at night;

  Your fond love has cheered me

  and guided me right;

  Sure I love the dear silver

  that shines in your hair;

  And the brow that's all furrowed

  and wrinkled with care;

  I kiss the dear fingers

  so toil warm for me;

  Oh! God bless you and

  keep you, mother machree!

 

在我的心灵之中

有个地方,深不可测

其境从未与闻

哪个少女也难问津;

在我的记忆之中

我的生命充满你的身影

谁也不能取代

永远无人有此真情;

珍贵时光悠悠逝去

辛劳烦扰却永不消停

你眼中的微笑,其光彩

使烦劳转为光明;

宛如点燃的烛光

深夜透窗棂

你深情的爱激励我

引领我一直前进;

是的,我爱你如银的发丝

闪烁着深情的光芒

我爱你额上道道皱纹

岁月刻满沧桑

我吻你勤劳的手指

双手柔情温暖我心房;

啊,慈母在我心

苍天保佑,福寿永绵长!
