[00:00:26] And the torch lights up a famished man

[00:00:30] 火炬的光照亮了那个可怜的人

[00:00:30] Who fortune could not save

[00:00:34] 饥肠辘辘 财富无存

[00:00:34] Did you work upon the railroad

[00:00:37] 你是铁路上卖力的工人？

[00:00:37] Did you rid the streets of crime

[00:00:41] Were your dollars from the white house

[00:00:45] 你的钱是白宫给的？

[00:00:45] Were they from the five and dime

[00:00:48] 还是杂货店里挣的？

[00:00:48] Did the old songs taunt or cheer you

[00:00:52] 那些老歌让你觉得讽刺还是欣慰？

[00:00:52] And did they still make you cry

[00:00:56] 它们是否仍能让你哭泣？

[00:00:56] Did you count the months and years

[00:00:59] 你是否难以忘怀度日如年

[00:00:59] Or did your teardrops quickly dry

[00:01:03] 抑或泪水很快风干

[00:01:03] Ah no says he 'twas not to be

[00:01:06] 不 他说 我上船启程来这儿时

[00:01:06] On a coffin ship I came here

[00:01:10] 它还不是一条棺材船

[00:01:10] And I never even got so far

[00:01:14] 并且我也从没到那个地步

[00:01:14] That they could change my name

[00:01:17] 以至于他们可以随便改了我的名字

[00:01:17] Thousands are sailing

[00:01:21] Across the western ocean

[00:01:24] 横渡大西洋

[00:01:24] To a land of opportunity

[00:01:39] Their bellies full

[00:01:41] 他们肚子虽空

[00:01:41] Their spirits free

[00:01:42] They'll break the chains of poverty

[00:01:46] 他们立志要拧断贫穷的锁链

[00:01:46] And they'll dance
