These Things Shall Never Die

The pure，the bright, the beautiful,                               一切纯洁的,辉煌的,美丽的,
That stirred our hearts in youth,                                  强烈地震撼着我们年轻的心灵的,
The impulses to wordless prayer,                                   推动着我们做无言的祷告的,
The dreams of love and truth;                                      让我们梦想着爱与真理的;
The longing after something's lost,                                在失去后为之感到珍惜的,
The spirit's yearning cry,                                         使灵魂深切地呼喊着的,
The striving after better hopes--                                   为了更美好的梦想而奋斗着的-
These things can never die.                                        这些美好不会消逝。

The timid hand stretched forth to aid                              羞怯地伸出援助的手，
A brother in his need,                                             在你的弟兄需要的时候，
A kindly word in grief's dark hour                                 伤恸、困难的时候，一句亲切的话
That proves a friend indeed ;                                      就足以证明朋友的真心；
The plea for mercy softly breathed,                                轻声地乞求怜悯，
When justice threatens nigh,                                       在审判临近的时候，
The sorrow of a contrite heart--                                   懊悔的心有一种伤感--
These things shall never die.                                      这些美好不会消逝。

Let nothing pass for every hand                                    在人间传递温情
Must find some work to do ;                                        尽你所能地去做；
Lose not a chance to waken love--                                  别错失去了唤醒爱的良机-----
Be firm, and just, and true;                                       为人要坚定，正直，忠诚；
So shall a light that cannot fade                                  因此上方照耀着你的那道光芒
Beam on thee from on high.                                         就不会消失。
And angel voices say to thee---                                    你将听到天使的声音在说-----
These things shall never die.                                      这些美好不会消逝。
