There was an old stone-cutter who lived in a cabin on the mountain side 有一个老石匠谁住在一间小木屋在山的另一边

And the old stone-cutter knew it won't be long before he died 和老石匠知道这不会很长，在他去世前

And all around his cabin were statues the man had made 和所有围绕他的小屋是雕像的人做了

Statues that the buyers said were all of a mediocre grade 雕像的购房者表示都是一个平庸的品位

With his calloused hands he lit a lamp and laid down his head on his handmade table 随着他长满老茧的双手，他点燃一盏灯，奠定了他的头在他的手工制作的表

And he softly whispered Lord I'm old and shaky and I'm hardly able 他小声地说：主啊我老了，摇摇欲坠，我几乎不能

But give me strenght and wisdom and give me a week at least 但请给我实力和智慧，给我一个星期至少

And I'll climb up to the top of this mountain and chisel out a masterpiece 我会爬上这座山的顶部，并凿出来的杰作

The very next morning he felt new strenght 就在第二天早上，他觉得新实力

And he took his brand new hammer and the sharpest chisel 他带着他的全新的锤子和凿子幅度最大

He began to climb the mountain his old feet slipping in the freezing dizzle 他开始爬山了他的老脚滑倒在结冰dizzle

When he finally reached the top he shouted to a world that didn't hear 当他终于到达山顶，他喊来并未听说世界

I'll carve my masterpiece out of this marble boulder here 我会刻我的杰作了这个大理石巨石这里

So the hammer beat the chisel and he hammered till an image grew 因此，锤子敲打凿子和他敲定，直到图像同比增长

Then he stopped to look it over to appraise his work when he was through 然后他停下来看看它交给评价他的工作时，他是通过

It was a boy carrying a crippled boy and the old man said it isn't my masterpiece 这是一个男孩背着一个残缺的孩子和老人说，这不是我的杰作

I'll call it charity and then a masterpiece of mine will be 我把它叫做慈善，然后我的杰作会

So the hammer beat the chisel til another immage in a marbel grew 因此，锤子敲打凿直到在马贝尔另一IMMAGE增长

Then the wind began to blowing and he sat and rested when he was through 然后，风开始吹，他坐着休息时，他是通过

It was the image of a mother holding her child 这是一个母亲的形象抱着她的孩子

He said this is love as the world would know 他说，这是爱的世界会知道

But it isn't my masterpiece and he began again as it began to snow 但它不是我的杰作，他又开始下起雪来

The hammer beat the chisel as the snow fell harder and the wind grew and grew 锤子敲打凿的雪花落在硬，风越做越大

He fell to his knees holding a stone and he threw down his hammer and his chisel too 他跪倒在地拿着一块石头，他扔下锤子和凿子他太

He lay frozen face down in the snow but one hand was held for the world to see 他躺在冰冻的脸倒在雪地上，但一方面举行的世界看到

Cut in the marble was his masterpice three neatly carved letters GOD 切割大理石是他masterpice 3整齐地刻信神
