[00:01.000] 作曲 : Aleks Popov
[00:32.30] The sun descending in the west,
[00:34.68] The evening star does shine;
[00:37.17] The birds are silent in their nest,
[00:39.62] And I must seek for mine.
[00:42.06] The moon, like a flower,
[00:44.81] In heaven's high bower,
[00:47.16] With silent delight
[00:49.60] Sits and smiles on the night.
[00:54.73] Farewell, green fields and happy groves,
[00:57.03] Where flocks have took delight.
[00:59.64] Where lambs have nibbled, silent moves
[01:01.88] The feet of angels bright;
[01:04.43] Unseen they pour blessing,
[01:06.73] And joy without ceasing,
[01:09.33] On each bud and blossom,
[01:12.01] And each sleeping bosom.
[01:16.10] They look in every thoughtless nest,
[01:21.36] Where birds are covered warm;
[01:25.60] They visit caves of every beast,
[01:30.78] To keep them all from harm.
[01:38.17] If they see any weeping
[01:43.32] That should have been sleeping,
[01:48.20] They pour sleep on their head,
[01:53.09] And sit down by their bed.
[02:01.63] When wolves and tigers howl for prey,
[02:04.28] They pitying stand and weep;
[02:06.73] Seeking to drive their thirst away,
[02:09.17] And keep them from the sheep.
[02:11.66] But if they rush dreadful,
[02:13.96] The angels, most heedful,
[02:16.71] Receive each mild spirit,
[02:19.35] New worlds to inherit.
[02:54.23] And there the lion's ruddy eyes
[02:56.33] Shall flow with tears of gold,
[02:58.87] And pitying the tender cries,
[03:01.32] And walking round the fold,
[03:03.82] Saying, 'Wrath, by His meekness,
[03:06.40] And, by His health, sickness
[03:09.05] Is driven away
[03:11.35] From our immortal day.
[03:16.44] 'And now beside thee, bleating lamb,
[03:18.94] I can lie down and sleep;
[03:21.42] Or think on Him who bore thy name,
[03:23.57] Graze after thee and weep.
[03:26.17] For, washed in life's river,
[03:28.81] My bright mane for ever
[03:31.32] Shall shine like the gold
[03:33.56] As I guard o'er the fold.'
