Precious Memories

珍贵的回忆

Precious memories, unseen angels

Sent from somewhere to my soul

How they linger, ever near me

And the sacred scenes unfold.

珍贵的回忆，

在我心深处，

来自看不见的天使，

它们流连在我身边，

如此贴近，

徐徐展开那飘逝的过去。

Precious memories, how they linger

How they ever flood my soul

In the stillness of the midnight

Precious, sacred scenes unfold.

珍贵的回忆，

如此流连难舍，

好像洪水，

在我灵魂深处泛溢。

已往的景象，

珍贵而神圣，

打开在这寂静的深夜里。

Precious father, loving mother

Fly across the lonely years

And old home scenes of my childhood

In fond memory appear.

亲爱的父亲，

慈祥的母亲，

越过孤独的岁月飞翔而来。

童年时老家的景色

在亲切的回想中重现。

In the stillness of the midnight

Echoes from the past I hear

Old-time singing, gladness bringing

From that lovely land somewhere.

夜半的宁寂里，

我听见往事的回音，

旧时的歌曲

从那可爱的地方送来温馨。

I remember mother praying

Father, too, on bended knee

Sun is sinking, shadows falling

But their prayers still follow me.

我记得跪着的母亲在祈祷，

父亲也是这样，

太阳渐沉，

黑暗降落，

但他们的祈祷却一直跟随我。

As I travel on life's pathway

Know not what the years may hold

As I ponder, hope grows fonder

Precious memories flood my soul.

当我在人生之途上跋涉，

不知未来的岁月将带给我什么;

当我深深沉思，

懂得了珍惜，

珍贵的回忆便犹如洪水

在我灵魂深处泛溢。
