When she made her first communion
当她初次领受圣体时
Esther made the perfect union
埃丝特缔结了神圣盟约
In her dress of white and wispy veil
白裙轻纱摇曳生姿
Esther's parents said to please us
父母殷切叮嘱道
You got to go an marry Jesus
你须嫁给救主耶稣
And her father took her to the alter rail
父亲牵她走向祭坛栏杆
When she made her first communion
当她初次领受圣体时
Esther made the perfect union
埃丝特缔结了神圣盟约
And that night she though of him in bed
那夜她在床上思念着他
She decided if he sees us
她暗自思忖若他看见我们
She ought to get a look at Jesus
她该去瞻仰耶稣圣容
And she began to see the one she wed
却开始注视自己婚约的对象
I began to see little Jesus
我眼前浮现小耶稣的身影
He was sitting on my bed
他正端坐在我的床沿
That's what Esther told her mother
埃丝特如此告诉母亲
And to which her mother said
母亲闻言这般说道
You're an evil child to tease us
你这顽劣孩子竟敢戏弄我们
Glory be I hope to Jesus
愿主耶稣垂怜
That your father never hears this
千万别让你父亲知晓
He would wash your mouth with soap
否则他会用肥皂洗你的嘴
When she made her first communion
当她初次领受圣体时
Esther made the perfect union
埃丝特缔结了神圣盟约
But she never saw his face again
却再未见过圣容
Yeh her mother said don't tease us
她母亲厉声呵斥莫再亵渎
So instead of seeing Jesus
于是她眼中不再只有耶稣
She began to see a lot of other men
开始浮现许多其他男人的身影
What she saw was quite a collection
所见之人堪称五花八门
Younger men and old ones too
青年与老者皆在其中
Cousins friends and even a brother
表亲朋友甚至自家兄弟
One at a time and quite a few
接连不断且为数不少
She began to see a gay uncle
后来出现位神采飞扬的叔父
Who resembled Billy Graham
模样酷似比利·葛培理
She began to see perfect strangers
她开始梦见陌生的面孔
She didn't even know by name
那些连名字都未曾知晓的人
When she made her first communion
当她初次领受圣体时
Esther made the perfect union
埃丝特缔结了神圣盟约
But she never saw his sweet face again
却再未见过他慈爱的容颜
Yeh her mother said don't tease us
她母亲厉声呵斥莫再亵渎
So instead of seeing little Jesus
从此她不再梦见圣婴耶稣
She began to see a lot of other men
开始浮现许多其他男人的身影
But she never told her mother again
却再未向母亲提起
No she never told her mother again
是的 她再未向母亲提起
No she never told her mother again
是的 她再未向母亲提起
No
再也没有
