人们倏然引吭高歌；

Everyone suddenly burst out singing;

我满心欢喜

And I was filled with such delight

就如被囚的鸟儿获得自由

As prisoned birds must find in freedom,

展翼任飞翔，飞过

Winging wildly across the white

白色的果园和碧绿的旷野，飞呀飞；

Orchards and dark-green fields; on--on--and out of sight.

直至消失于视野。

Everyone's voice was suddenly lifted;

人们歌声突然扬起,

And beauty came like the setting sun:

诗意的黄昏之景出现。

My heart was shaken with tears; and horror

我的心随泪水而激动；

Drifted away ... O, but Everyone

恐惧烟消云散…… 人们啊

Was a bird; and the song was wordless; the singing will never be done.

真成了鸟儿，无声的歌

永远唱不完。
