Im a little bird in a cage Far
I’m a little bird in a cage, Far from the sky and the broad field; It is You, Lord, who bring me here, And I will praise You ceaselessly; Such confinement gives me great joy, Because, my God, it is Your will. 我是一隻籠中小鳥, 遠離天空、曠闊野地 是主將我安置於此, 我願向祂歌頌不已 如此被囚, 我甚歡欣, 因這, 我神, 使你稱心 Song from Prison 我是一隻籠中小鳥(1)
Being confined I do nothing, But sing all day in solitude; My God whom I am trying to please, Listens to my songs and praises; Though He has tied both of my wings, He loves to hear the songs I sing. 禁中我無他事可作, 終日就是靜中歌唱 我所使之稱心的神, 也在傾聽我的頌揚 祂捆綁了我的翅膀卻愛俯首聽我歌唱 Song from Prison 我是一隻籠中小鳥(2)
O God, You have ears to hear me, But also have love to grant grace; Tho’ my singing is not refined, You will not despise nor reject. For You do know the melody, Is played with the sweetness of love. 哦神, 你是有耳能聽, 你也有心施愛賜恩 我的音調雖然粗陋, 你卻毫不鄙棄厭惡 因你知這音調之絃, 乃是甜美之愛所彈 Song from Prison 我是一隻籠中小鳥(3)
This cage confines me on all sides, I cannot fly away at will; Altho’ my wings are bound by men, My mind and spirit are still free; Prison walls can’t hinder my mind, From soaring freely in the sky. 這籠將我四面禁錮, 我難外飛任意遨遊 我的翅膀雖被捆住, 我心我靈仍是自由 監牢牆垣不能阻擋, 心靈所有釋放翱翔 Song from Prison 我是一隻籠中小鳥(4)
My mind soars above the prison, My spirit enjoys the free flight; To my dearest Lord I have flown, Your will is what I value most; It is within Your steadfast will, That my spirit’s free and joyful. 我心超越監牢之閂, 我靈騰飛任其自在 向著心愛之主騰飛, 你的旨意我所敬拜 在你堅定旨意之中, 我靈得到自由歡騰 Song from Prison 我是一隻籠中小鳥(5)
