标题: 春节
春节
By The Rev. Ed. 皮尔斯。
商店都关门了,没有生意可做;繁忙喧嚣的人群都走了;人们似乎几乎是孤独的。
在中国的元旦。
奇怪的是,国外的人很少。
没有苦力在他们的负荷下蹒跚而行;没有椅子或马车在路上。
在中国的元旦。
一会儿,我们在街上闲逛

一些杂耍者在做奇妙的壮举。
庞克和朱迪在那里完成。
在中国的元旦。
像往常一样,我们邀请我们所有的本地朋友,无论大小。
来参观我们的 "耶稣堂

在中国的元旦。
每位客人都来得很早很早。
男人们刮得干干净净,穿得整整齐齐,戴着帽子,穿着长袍,穿着周日的衣服。
在中国的元旦。
孩子们身着色彩斑斓的衣服。
他们的头发梳理得如此顺畅。
玫瑰花和罂粟花各一朵。
在中国的元旦。
然后慢慢地弯下腰来。
每个人都深深地鞠了一躬。
希望能有好运气。
在中国的元旦。
很快,围着餐盘坐下,每个客人
踊跃地吃着食物,用他的筷子尽力而为。
在中国的元旦。
现在每个人都沉浸在快乐之中
;
在欢快和喜悦中
迅速流逝的时光中度过。
在中国的元旦。
当白昼开始消逝。
小伙伴们都玩累了。
在中国的元旦,我们聚集在一起唱歌和祈祷。
长者们用庄严的声音
邀请所有的人都来欢庆。
为上帝和天堂做出选择。
在中国的元旦。
就这样,我们的日子没有白过
如果一些可怜的灵魂有一丝微弱的光芒
赢得光明,以振奋他们的道路。
在中国的元旦。



NEW YEAR'S DAY IN CHINA
By The Rev. Ed. Pearse.
Ar.L shops are closed, no business done ; The busy, bustling crowd are gone ; One seems to be almost alone,
On New Year's Day in China.
'Tis strangely still, few folks abroad,
No coolies stagg'ring 'neath their load ; No chair or barrow on the road,
On New Year's Day in China.
Anon we saunter down the street

Some jugglers doing wondrous feat,
With Punch and Judy there complete,
On New Year's Day in China.
As usual, we invited all Our native friends, both great and small,
To visit us at " Jesus Hall

On New Year's Day in China.
All bright and early came each guest,
The men clean-shaved and neatly dressed, In hat and gown and Sunday-best,
On New Year's Day in China.
The children decked in colours gay,
Their well-combed hair so smoothly lay,
With rose and poppy each a spray,
On New Year's Day in China.
Then bending slowly to the ground,
Each person makes a bow profound,
And hopes good fortune may abound,
On New Year's Day in China.
Soon, seated round the board, each guest
Attacks the food with eager zest, And with his chopsticks does his best,
On New Year's Day in China.
On pleasure now each one is bent
;
In cheerfulness and merriment
The quickly-passing hours are spent,
On New Year's Day in China.
When day begins to wear away,
And little folks are tired of play,
We gather round to sing and pray, On New Year's Day in China.
The elders then, with solemn voice,
Invited all who would rejoice,
For God and heaven to make their choice,
On New Year's Day in China.
And so, not vainly spent our day
Should some poor soul one feeble ray
Of brightness gain to cheer their way,
On New Year's Day in China.
