一番長く感じられる時は　客車が到着して― 馬車を待っている時―

I think the longest Hour of all

Is when the Cars have come –

And we are waiting for the Coach –

一番長く感じられる時は

客車が到着して―

馬車を待っている時―

It seems as though the Time

Indignant – that the Joy was come –

Did block the Gilded Hands –

And would not let the Seconds by –

まるで時計の時間が

喜びの訪れに―憤慨して―

金の分針の邪魔をして―

秒針を動きを止めているよう―

But slowest instant – ends –

The Pendulum begins to count –

Like little Scholars – loud –

The steps grow thicker – in the Hall –

The Heart begins to crowd –

 

でも最も遅い瞬間も―終わり―

振り子は数え始める―

小さな生徒のように―大声で―

玄関では―歩みが繁くなり―

心が混み合い始める―

Then I – my timid service done –

Tho’ service ’twas, of Love –

Take up my little Violin –

And further North – remove.

やがて私は―臆病な仕事―

つまり愛の，奉仕を終え―

小さなバイオリンを抱えて―

もっと北に―向かう．
