Oh, the snowflakes fell in silence 呵呵，雪花默默下跌

Over Belleau Wood that night 在Belleau木头那一夜

For a Christmas truce had been declared 对于圣诞节休战已宣布

By both sides of the fight 扑灭两侧

As we lay there in our trenches 当我们躺在那里，在我们的战壕

The silence broke in two 在两个沉默中爆发

By a German soldier singing 由德国士兵唱歌

A song that we all knew 一首歌，大家都知道

   

Though I did not know the language 虽然我不知道的语言

The song was "Silent Night" 这首歌是“平安夜”

   

Then I heard my buddy whisper, 然后，我听到了我的哥们耳语，

"All is calm and all is bright" “一切都平静，一切都光明”

Then the fear and doubt surrounded me 那么恐惧和怀疑包围着我

'Cause I'd die if I was wrong 因为我会死，如果我错了

But I stood up in my trench 不过，我在沟站起来

And I began to sing along 我开始一起唱

   

Then across the frozen battlefield 然后在冰冻的战场

Another's voice joined in 另外的声音加入

Until one by one each man became 直到一个接一个的每个人成为

A singer of the hymn 赞美诗的歌手

   

Then I thought that I was dreaming 后来我想，我是在做梦

For right there in my sight 对于正确的，在我的视线

Stood the German soldier 站在德国士兵

'Neath the falling flakes of white 白照耀下的薄片下降

And he raised his hand and smiled at me 他抬起手，对着我微笑

As if he seemed to say 好像他似乎在说：

Here's hoping we both live 这里的希望，我们都活

To see us find a better way 看到我们找到更好的方法

   

Then the devil's clock struck midnight 于是魔鬼的午夜钟声敲响

And the skies lit up again 而天空亮了起来再次

And the battlefield where heaven stood 而在战场里放着天堂

Was blown to hell again 再次吹地狱

   

But for just one fleeting moment 但只是一个短暂的瞬间

The answer seemed so clear 答案似乎很清楚

Heaven's not beyond the clouds 天堂不是超越云

It's just beyond the fear 这只是超越恐惧

   

No, heaven's not beyond the clouds 不，天堂是不是超出了云

It's for us to find it here 这是我们在这里找到它
