歌词
When boyhood's fire was in my blood
年少时候我便读到
I read of ancient freemen
自由的先祖的故事
For Greece and Rome who bravely stood
就像在罗马与希腊
Three hundred men and three men
贺拉斯和斯巴达的勇士们
And then I prayed I yet might see
我祈祷在有生之年
Our fetters rent in twain
脚下镣铐被斩断
And Ireland, long a province, be
我们山河沦陷的爱尔兰
A Nation once again!
重生的那一天
A Nation once again
我们重新独立
A Nation once again,
我们恢复主权
And Ireland, long a province, be
我们山河沦陷的爱尔兰
A Nation once again!
重生的那一天
And from that time, through wildest woe,
我们走过漫漫苦海
That hope has shone a far light,
希望之光就在眼前
Nor could love's brightest summer glow
夏日里闪耀的星海
Outshine that solemn starlight;
不如这圣光的显现
It seemed to watch above my head
它永远注视着我
In forum, field and fane,
在广场田野和神殿
Its angel voice sang round my bed,
那是天使齐声唱诵我国
A Nation once again!
重生的那一天
A Nation once again
我们重新独立
A Nation once again,
我们恢复主权
And Ireland, long a province, be
我们山河沦陷的爱尔兰
A Nation once again!
重生的那一天
It whisper'd too, that freedom's ark
天使欢唱自由的方舟
And service high and holy,
神圣旗帜飘扬天边
Would be profaned by feelings dark
我们不会被它玷污
And passions vain or lowly;
卑微致命的邪念
For, Freedom comes from God's right hand,
自由出自上帝右手
And needs a Godly train;
我们代行在人间
And righteous men must make our land
正义人民带领我国走向
A Nation once again!
重生那一天
A Nation once again
我们重新独立
A Nation once again,
我们恢复主权
And Ireland, long a province, be
我们山河沦陷的爱尔兰
A Nation once again!
重生的那一天
So, as I grew from boy to man,
有朝一日长大成人
I bent me to that bidding
我也会响应召唤
My spirit of each selfish plan
不再自私和自利
And cruel passion ridding;
也不再盲目地追赶
For, thus I hoped some day to aid,
我希望能有朝一日
Oh, can such hope be vain?
所有奋斗都不徒劳
When my dear country shall be made
那时我的祖国必将迎来
A Nation once again!
重生那一天
A Nation once again
我们重新独立
A Nation once again,
我们恢复主权
And Ireland, long a province, be
我们山河沦陷的爱尔兰
A Nation once again!
重生的那一天
