圣城

1.Last night I lay a-sleeping,There came a dream so fair,
昨夜我在睡梦中，有美梦真甜蜜；
I stood in old Jerusalem,Beside the temple there.
我站在旧耶路撒冷，在圣殿的那边；
I heard the children singing,And ever as they sang,
我听见孩童的歌声，直回响在耳边；
Me thought the voice of angels,From heaven in answer rang.
有如天使的歌声，自天和谐响应。
Jerusalem! Jerusalem!Lift up your gates and sing,
耶路撒冷，耶路撒冷，众城门齐歌颂，
Hosanna in the highest!Hosanna to your King!
和散那归於上主，和散那归君王！

2.And then me thought my dream was changed,The streets no longer rang,
随後梦境又转变，不再有街道声，
Hushed were the glad Hosannas,The little children sang.
我不再听见孩童们欢唱着和散那；
The sun grew dark with mystery,The morn was cold and chill,
日头忽然变成黑暗，清晨寒冷无比；
As the shadow of a cross arose,Upon a lonely hill.
十字架的阴影显现，在寂寞山那边。
Jerusalem! Jerusalem!Hark! How the angels sing,
耶路撒冷，耶路撒冷，请听天使歌颂，
Hosanna in the highest!Hosanna to your King!
和散那归於上主，和散那归君王！

3.And once again the scene was changed;New earth there seemed to be;
又再一次情景转变，有新天地出现！
I saw the Holy City,Beside the tideless sea;
我看见天上圣城，在平静的海边；
The light of God was on its streets,The gates were open wide,
上帝的光普照街市，城门大开广阔，
And all who would might enter,And no one was denied.
愿意的人都可来，不要拒绝前往。
No need of moon or stars by night,Or sun to shine by day;
夜间无须月亮星辰，白昼无须日光；
It was the new Jerusalem,That would not pass away.
那就是新耶路撒冷，永远坚固长存；

Jerusalem! Jerusalem!Sing for the night is o'er!
耶路撒冷，耶路撒冷，夜尽了齐歌唱。
Hosanna in the highest!Hosanna for evermore!
和散那归於上主，和散那直到永远！
Hosanna in the highest!Hosanna for evermore!
和散那归於上主，和散那直到永远！
