《Old Waits Carol》歌词

时长： 02:34

The moon shines bright[00:00:00]

And the stars give a light [00:00:04]

A little before it is day[00:00:07]

The Lord our God He for-gave us [00:00:14]

And bids us awake and pray [00:00:21]

The life of man is but a span [00:00:30]

And cut down in its flower [00:00:37]

We're here to-day to-morrow gone [00:00:44]

The creatures of an hour [00:00:51]

To-day you may be alive and well [00:01:01]

Worth many a thousand pound;[00:01:07]

To-morrow dead and cold as clay [00:01:14]

Your corpse laid underground [00:01:21]

With one turf at thine head O man [00:01:31]

And another at thy feet;[00:01:38]

Thy good deeds and thy bad O man [00:01:45]

Will all together meet [00:01:52]

My song is done I must be gone [00:02:02]

I can stay no longer here;[00:02:09]

God bless you all both great and small [00:02:16]

And send you a joyful new year [00:02:23]
