A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labour camp
劳工营中拥挤的小屋，帆布覆盖着屋顶
Stand out in this memory I revived;
这段记忆在我心中格外鲜明
Cause my daddy raised a family there
因为父亲用他勤劳的双手在那里养家
With two hard working hands
他努力用双手支撑起这个家
And tried to feed my mama's hungry eyes
试图填满母亲眼中那渴望的目光
He dreamed of something better
他梦想着更好的生活
And my mama's faith was strong
而母亲的信仰依然坚定
And us kids were just to young to realize
而我们这些孩子当时太年幼，未能理解这一切
That another class of people
那是另一类人
Put us somewhere just below;
将我们置于底层；
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes
这是我母亲眼中渴望的又一个原因
Mama never had the luxuries she wanted
母亲从未拥有她想要的奢华
But it wasn't cause my daddy didn't try
但这并非因为父亲未曾努力
She only wanted things she really needed;
她只想要她真正需要的东西；
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes
这是我母亲眼中渴望的又一个原因
I remember daddy praying for a better way of life
我记得父亲曾为更好的生活祈祷
But I don't recall a change of any size;
但我未曾记得生活有任何改变
Just a little loss of courage
只是他们逐渐失去了勇气
As their age began to show
随着岁月在他们身上留下痕迹
And more sadness in my mama's hungry eyes
母亲眼中多了更多的悲伤与渴望
Mama never had the luxuries she wanted
母亲从未拥有她想要的奢华
But it wasn't cause my daddy didn't try
但这并非因为父亲未曾努力
She only wanted things she really needed;
她只想要她真正需要的东西；
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes
这是我母亲眼中渴望的又一个原因
Yes I still recall my mama's hungry eyes
是的，我仍记得母亲那充满渴望的眼神
