一页又一页，我读着你的书，

The pages of thy book I read,

每一页读到末了，

And as I closed each one,

我的心总要响应，总要说：

My heart, responding, ever said,

“上帝的仆人！干得好！”

"Servant of God! well done!"

干得好！你书中写下的言词

Well done! Thy words are great and bold;

是那样崇高而勇敢，

At times they seem to me,

常令我想起往日的路德

Like Luther's, in the days of old,

争取自由的奋战。

Half-battles for the free.

干下去！从这片土地上扫除

Go on, until this land revokes

老朽而横霸的谎言

The old and chartered Lie,

和封建祸害——它的鞭和轭

The feudal curse, whose whips and yokes

凌辱了人的尊严。

Insult humanity.

一个声音总在你耳旁

A voice is ever at thy side

用权威口吻讲话，

Speaking in tones of might,

如同约翰在拔摩岛上

Like the prophetic voice, that cried

听到的预言：“写吧！”

To John in Patmos, "Write!"

写吧！诉说这血腥的故事，

Write! and tell out this bloody tale;

记录这无尽的哀哭，

Record this dire eclipse,

这可怕的日蚀，这降罚的日子，

This Day of Wrath, this Endless Wail,

这惊心动魄的《启示录》！

This dread Apocalypse!
