《慈母頌》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!
    外文詩：歌頌偉大的母親《慈母頌》
    在我的心靈之中
    有個地方，深不可測
    其境從未與聞
    哪個少女也難問津；
    在我的記憶之中
    我的生命充滿你的身影
    誰也不能取代
    永遠(yuǎn)無人有此真情；
    珍貴時光悠悠逝去
    辛勞煩擾卻永不消停
    你眼中的微笑，其光彩
    使煩勞轉(zhuǎn)為光明；
    宛如點(diǎn)燃的燭光
    深夜透窗欞
    你深情的愛激勵我
    引領(lǐng)我一直前進(jìn)；
    是的，我愛你如銀的發(fā)絲
    閃爍著深情的光芒
    我愛你額上道道皺紋
    歲月刻滿滄桑
    我吻你勤勞的手指
    雙手柔情溫暖我心房；
    啊，慈母在我心
    蒼天保佑，福壽永綿長！
