中英雙語詩歌欣賞：我心雀躍

My Heart Leaps Up 我心雀躍

My heart leaps up when I behold

當天邊彩虹映入眼簾，

A rainbow in the sky：

我心爲之雀躍;

So was it when my life began;

初生時即如此，

So is it now I am a man;

我現在仍不變，

So be it when I shall grow old，

將來也會如此，

Or let me die!

否則我寧願死去!

The Child is father of the Man;

兒童是成人之父;

And I could wish my days to be

願自然虔誠的意念，將我生涯的每個日子連串起來。

Bound each to each by natural piety.

自幼至老，深信不移。
