Hope is the thing with feathers
And sings the
tune2 without the words,
And never stops at all.
The sweetest in the
gale3 is heard;
And sore must be the storm
That could
abash4 the little bird
That kept so many warm.
And on the strangest sea;
希望是鸟儿,
在人们心灵栖居,
唱着无词的歌儿,
永无止息。
心灵是甜蜜的避风港
只有猛烈的风暴,
才能威胁希望,
这慰藉心灵的小鸟。
它歌唱在最寒冷的地方
最陌生的海洋
纵然身处绝境,
也不索取分毫。
