圣诞舞鞋

圣诞节马上来到，我站在那里排队，

想买最后一两份礼物，虽然并没有过节的心情。

在我前面是一位男孩，他焦急不安地等待，

手中拿着一双鞋子。

他的衣服破旧不堪，从头到脚也脏兮兮的

排到他的时候，我简直不相信我的耳朵：

“先生，我要给妈妈买这双鞋子，

在这圣诞之夜，这鞋子也正好是她的尺寸，

能快点吗先生，爸爸说她的时间不多了。

妈妈生病已经很久，我知道这双鞋能让她微笑，

如果妈妈今晚去见耶稣，我想让她看起来非常漂亮。”

他慢慢地数着硬币，好像过了很久，

店员张口说道：“孩子啊，这些钱不够。”

孩子着急地翻着口袋，然后转过来看我，

他说妈妈总是把圣诞节办得好好的，

尽管有时候什么都没有

先生你说我该怎么办？

我无论如何都要给妈妈买到这双圣诞舞鞋。

我得帮助这个孩子，就把钱拿出来摆上，

我永远无法忘掉他的话和脸上的模样：

我的妈妈将会非常漂亮！

当他谢谢我，然后转身跑走的时候，

我知道我看到了天堂之爱，

明白是上帝派了这个小男孩，

提醒我圣诞节的意义是什么……

The Chrstma Shoes

It was almost Christmas time, there I stood in another line
Trying to buy that last gift or two, not really in the Christmas mood
Standing right in front of me was a little boy waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round like little boys do
And in his hands he held a pair of shoes

And his clothes were worn and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe what I heard him say

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for what seemed like years
Then the cashier said, "Son, there's not enough here"
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He said Mama made Christmas good at our house
Though most years she just went without
Tell me Sir, what am I going to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her these Christmas shoes

So I laid the money down, I just had to help him out
And I'll never forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's gonna look so great

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew that God had sent that little boy
To remind me what Christmas is all about

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight.
