《 Coat of many colours》穿着彩衣的鸟
演唱：Shania Twain（仙妮亚.唐恩）
Back through the years
I go wonderin' once again
Back to the seasons of my youth
I recall a box of rags that someone gave us
And how my momma put the rags to use
There were rags of many colors
Every piece was small
And I didn't have a coat
And it was way down in the fall
Momma sewed the rags together
Sewin' every piece with love
She made my coat of many colors
That I was so proud of
回忆过去的岁月总能令我惊奇，
想起了我的童年。
记得曾有人送给我家一盒碎布，
而妈妈又是如何将它们派上了用场。
这些碎布五颜六色，每一片都非常小，
那时我没有外套，而时节已入深秋，
妈妈将这些碎布缝在一起，
针针线线都凝聚她的爱意，
妈妈为我做件七彩衣，我多么骄傲。
As she sewed, she told a story
From the bible, she had read
About a coat of many colors
Joseph wore and then she said
Perhaps this coat will bring you
Good luck and happiness
And I just couldn't wait to wear it
And momma blessed it with a kiss
她边缝边讲在圣经上读过的
有关约瑟七彩衣的故事，
然后她说这外套或能为你带来幸运和快乐。
我等不及穿上它，
妈妈将祝福的吻印在了七彩衣上。
My coat of many colors
That my momma made for me
Made only from rags
But I wore it so proudly
Although we had no money
I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me
妈妈为我做的七彩衣
虽由碎布制成，我却自豪地穿上它，
尽管我们没有钱，但我仍然富有，
穿着妈妈为我做的七彩衣。
So with patches on my britches
Holes in both my shoes
In my coat of many colors
I hurried off to school
Just to find the others laughing
And making fun of me
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me
于是我穿上打补丁的裤子，两只都有洞洞的鞋，
披上我的七彩衣，兴冲冲地赶往学校。
我看到的只是同学的嘲笑和奚落，
她们瞧不起妈妈为我做的七彩衣。
And oh I couldn't understand it
For I felt I was rich
And I told them of the love
My momma sewed in every stitch
And I told 'em all the story
Momma told me while she sewed
And how my coat of many colors
Was worth more than all their clothes
哦，我不明白，我不觉得自己贫穷。
我告诉她们妈妈用爱缝制的一针一线，
还有妈妈缝衣时给我讲的那些故事，
我觉得我的七彩衣胜过她们所有的衣服。
But they didn't understand it
And I tried to make them see
That one is only poor
Only if they choose to be
Now I know we had no money
But I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me
Made just for me
她们无法理解，我尽力使她们明白，
人只有在甘愿贫穷的时候才是贫穷。
我们虽然没有钱，却无比富有，
穿着妈妈做的七彩衣，
妈妈为我做的七彩衣。
