Boats sail on the rivers, 小舟在河上航行，
And ships sail on the seas; 大船在海中操輪，
But clouds that sail across the sky, 然而白雲飄過天空時，
Are prettier far than these. 比這些更為悅人。

There are bridges on the rivers, 河上有橋，
As pretty as you please; 如你所願的那麼悅目；
But the bow that bridges heaven, 然而橫跨在穹蒼的長虹，
And overtops the trees, 卻比樹梢更高，
And builds a road from earth to sky, 而能建築一條通行天際的道路，
Is prettier far than these. 比這些更為美好。
