These Things Shall Never Die--Charles Dickens

The pure.the bright,the beautiful,

That stirred our hearts in youth,

The impulses to wordless prayer,

The dreams of love and truth;

The longing after something's lost,

The spirit's yearning cry,

The striving after better hopes-

These things can never die.

The timid hand stretched forth to aid

A brother in his need,

A kindly word in grief's dark hour

That proves a friend indeed ;

The plea for mercy softly breathed,

When justice threatens nigh,

The sorrow of a contrite heart-

These things shall never die.

Let nothing pass for every hand

Must find some work to do ;

Lose not a chance to waken love-

Be firm,and just ,and true;

So shall a light that cannot fade

Beam on thee from on high.

And angel voices say to thee---

These things shall never die.
这些美好不会消逝--查尔斯.狄更斯


一切纯洁的,辉煌的,美丽的,

强烈地震撼着我们年轻的心灵的,

推动着我们做无言的祷告的,

让我们梦想着爱与真理的;

在失去后为之感到珍惜的,

使灵魂深切地呼喊着的,

为了更美好的梦想而奋斗着的-

这些美好不会消逝。

羞怯地伸出援助的手,

在你的弟兄需要的时候,

伤恸、困难的时候,一句亲切的话

就足以证明朋友的真心;

轻声地乞求怜悯,

在审判临近的时候,

懊悔的心有一种伤感--

这些美好不会消逝。

在人间传递温情,

尽你所能地去做;

别错失去了唤醒爱的良机-----

为人要坚定,正直,忠诚;

因此上方照耀着你的那道光芒

就不会消失。

你将听到天使的声音在说-----

这些美好不会消逝。
