LESSON 71

LULLABY

摇篮曲

western breathe dying moon babe sails

1.

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 moon, and blow,

Blow him again to me;

While my little one, while my pretty one sleeps.

2.

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.

(Tennyson)

1.

轻又甜,甜又轻,

来自西边的海风,

轻轻地呼气与吹舞,

来自西边的海风!

从沉落的月中走来,

越过波浪的翻腾,

把他带回我的身边,

我的宝贝已然入梦。

2.

安静地睡吧,

爸爸就要回来看你,

睡在妈妈的怀里,

爸爸就要回来看你。

爸爸就要回来看摇篮里的宝贝,

在银色的月光下,

扬起银帆从西边起程,

睡吧,睡吧,我的宝贝已然入梦。
