The President Sang Amazing Grace - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)[00:00:00]

//[00:00:09]

A young man came to a house of prayer[00:00:09]

一个年轻人来到祈祷殿[00:00:14]

They did not ask what brought him there[00:00:14]

他们也不问他为何而来[00:00:20]

He was not friend he was not kin[00:00:20]

他并非他们亲友[00:00:25]

But they opened the door and let him in[00:00:25]

但他们却为他敞开大门[00:00:32]

And for an hour the stranger stayed[00:00:32]

他在里边待了一个小时[00:00:37]

He sat with them and seemed to pray[00:00:37]

和他们坐在一起 看起来像是在祷告[00:00:42]

But then the young man drew a gun[00:00:42]

但接着年轻人拿出一把枪[00:00:48]

And killed nine people old and young[00:00:48]

射杀了九个人[00:01:01]

In Charleston in the month of June[00:01:01]

这就发生在六月的查尔斯顿[00:01:06]

The mourners gathered in a room[00:01:06]

哀悼者都聚集在一个房间里[00:01:11]

The President came to speak some words[00:01:11]

总统也前来安抚他们[00:01:16]

And the cameras rolled and the nation heard[00:01:16]

相机记录下这一刻 这件事传遍全国[00:01:22]

But no words could say what must be said[00:01:22]

对所有在世和已故的人们[00:01:27]

For all the living and the dead[00:01:27]

纵有千言万语 也只能保持沉默[00:01:31]

So on that day and in that place[00:01:31]

所以那一天 就在那里[00:01:37]

The President sang Amazing Grace[00:01:37]

总统唱起了奇异恩典[00:01:43]

The President sang Amazing Grace[00:01:43]

总统唱起了奇异恩典[00:02:01]

We argued where to place the blame[00:02:01]

我们争论着该如何归咎责任[00:02:06]

On one man's hate or our nation's shame[00:02:06]

到底是私人恩怨 还是国家耻辱[00:02:11]

Some sickness of the mind or soul[00:02:11]

有些人精神已经受到重创[00:02:16]

And how the wounds might be made whole[00:02:16]

这些伤怎样才能彻底愈合[00:02:22]

But no words could say what must be said[00:02:22]

对所有在世和已故的人们[00:02:27]

For all the living and the dead[00:02:27]

纵有千言万语 也只能保持沉默[00:02:31]

So on that day and in that place[00:02:31]

所以那一天 就在那里[00:02:37]

The President sang Amazing Grace[00:02:37]

总统唱起了奇异恩典[00:02:43]

My President sang Amazing Grace[00:02:43]

总统唱起了奇异恩典[00:02:48]
