Sweet and Low
Alfred Tennyson
Sweet and low , sweet and low,
Wind of the western sea,
Low, low, breathe and blow,
Wind of the western sea!
Over the rolling waters go,
Come from the dying noon, and blow,
Blow him again to me;
While my little one, while my pretty one, sleeps.
Sleep and rest, sleep and rest,
Father will come to thee soon;
Rest, rest on mother's breast,
Father will come to thee soon;
Father will come to his babe in the nest,
Silver sails all out of the west
Under the silver moon;
Sleep, my little one, sleep, my pretty one, sleep.
轻轻地,柔和地
阿尔弗雷德·丁尼生
轻轻地,柔和地,轻轻地,柔和地,
西方吹来海风;
轻轻地,柔和地吹拂,
西方吹来海风!
西边吹来,月色朦胧,
吹过波涛汹涌;
吹得他回家呵,
亲亲睡着的宝宝,可爱的宝贝。
睡吧,休息;睡吧,休息,
爸爸一会儿就来;
睡吧,睡在妈妈怀里,
爸爸一会儿就来;
从西方归来,扬起银色风帆,
映着银色月光,飘洋过海,
来看宝宝--安睡在家里;
睡吧,小宝贝,睡吧,可爱的宝贝。
