歌词
Oh little town of Bethlehem
小城伯利恒啊
Looks like another silent night
似乎是一晚太平之夜
在你沉浸在甜美的熟睡之时
Above your deep and dreamless sleep
一颗巨星熠熠升起在夜空
A giant star lights up the sky
当你躺在无边黑暗之中
夜空中却闪烁着永不熄灭的光芒
And while you're lying in the dark
主离开了祂的王座
There shines an everlasting light
熟睡在了马槽之中, 今夜, 今夜
伯利恒啊, 你是否错过了什么?
For the King has left His throne
当你熟睡之时
And is sleeping in a manger tonight, tonight
神却降生为了人子
踏入了你的世界
Oh Bethlehem, what you have missed
伯利恒啊, 你将在历史中就此浮沉
while you were sleeping
一个不曾为它的王准备房屋之城
For God became a man
当你熟睡之时
And stepped into your world today
当你熟睡之时
玛丽却在刺骨冷风中颤抖
Oh Bethlehem, you will go down in history
只为了给小救世主取暖
As a city with no room for its King
祂降生在了牲畜之间, 衣衫褴褛
While you were sleeping
只因你不曾为祂准备一间房屋
While you were sleeping
在这个祂将拯救的世界
伯利恒啊, 你是否错过了什么?
Mary shivers in the cold
当你熟睡之时
Trying to keep the Savior warm
神却降生为了人子
踏入了你的世界
Born among the animals wrapped in dirty rags
伯利恒啊, 你将在历史中就此浮沉
Because there was no room for Him
一个不曾为它的王准备房屋之城
in the world He came to save
当你熟睡之时
当你熟睡之时
Oh Bethlehem, what you have missed
美利坚共和国啊
while you were sleeping
似乎也是一晚太平之夜
For God became a man
我们被种种人生观安抚着入睡
And stepped into your world today
虽救起了林地, 却扼杀了孩子们的心
当我们躺在一片漆黑之中
Oh Bethlehem, you will go down in history
一声巨响划破了天的东边
As a city with no room for its King
新郎回来了(这里指耶稣归来)
While you were sleeping
祂把新娘从黑夜之中接走
While you were sleeping
美利坚啊, 当我们熟睡之时, 我们又将错过什么?
当耶稣归来之时
United States of America
祂是否会经过我们熟睡之地, 又只能不舍地离开呢?
Looks like another silent night
美利坚啊, 我们是否会在历史中就此浮沉?
是否会成为那个不为它的王准备房屋的国家?
As we're sung to sleep by philosophies
我们是否会沉睡下去?
That save the trees and kill the children
我们是否会沉睡下去?
美利坚共和国啊
And while we're lying in the dark
似乎又是一晚太平之夜
There's a shout heard 'cross the eastern sky
For the Bridegroom has returned
And has carried His bride away in the night
America, what will we miss while we are sleeping
Will Jesus come again
And leave us slumbering where we lay
America, will we go down in history
As a nation with no room for its King
Will we be sleeping
Will we be sleeping
United States of America
Looks like another silent night
