Christina the Astonishing 克里斯蒂娜惊人

Lived a long time ago 很久以前住

She was stricken with a seizure 她患了癫痫

At the age of twenty-two 在22岁

   

They took her body in a coffin 他们把她的尸体在棺材里

To a tiny church in Liege 为了一个小小的教堂列日

Where she sprang up from the coffin 她从棺材里跳起来

Just after the Agnus Dei 刚过Agnus棣

   

She soared up to the rafters 她飙起来的椽子

Perched on a beam up there 栖息在梁那里

Cried "The stink of human sin 哭着道：“人类罪的臭味

Is more that I can bear" 更是我能承受“

   

Christina the Astonishing 克里斯蒂娜惊人

Was the most astonishing of all 是最惊人的是

She prayed balanced on a hurdle 她的一道坎祈祷平衡

Or curled up into a ball 或蜷缩成一团

   

She fled to remote places 她逃到了遥远的地方

Climbed towers and trees and walls 爬塔和树木和墙壁

To escape the stench of human corruption 为了逃避人类腐败的恶臭

Into an oven she did crawl 进烤箱，她做了爬行

   

O Christina the Astonishing Ø克里斯蒂娜惊人

Behaved in a terrifying way 欲语还可怕的方式

She would run wildly through the streets 她会在街上疯狂地跑

Jump in the Meusse and swim away 跳与Meusse和游泳离开
