For a list of 14)local Vietnam dead死去的同乡默哀
Crying all alone under the stands看台下面
Was a piccolo player in the marching band行进乐队的短笛手在默默伤心哭泣
And one name read and nobody really cared没有人真正在意那死者姓名
But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair除了那头戴蝴蝶结的姑娘
Well I was doubling over the load on my shoulders曾经我的肩膀背负太多
Was a weight I carried with me everyday我每天背负着很重的压力
Crossing miles of frustrations and rivers a raging穿过失败之路和愤怒的河流
Picking up stones I found along the way捡起石子我发现我的孤单
I staggered and I stumbled down我摇摇晃晃坎坷前行
Pathways of trouble烦恼与困难的路
I was hauling those souvenirs of misery我扔掉了痛苦的纪念品
And with each step taken my back was breaking每一步都感觉后背要被压垮
'Til I found the One who took it all from me直到我遇到了一个把我所有负担卸下来的人
Down by the riverside漫步在河畔

I laid my burdens down我终于卸下来我的负担
Now I'm traveling light现在我轻装前行
My spirit lifted high我朝气蓬勃
(I found my freedom now)现在我找到了我的自由
I found my freedom now现在我找到了我的自由
And I'm traveling light我轻装前行
Through the darkest alleys and loneliest valleys穿过黑暗的小路跟孤单的山谷
I was dragging those heavy chains of doubt and fear我抛开了疑惑跟恐惧的枷锁
Then with the one word spoken the locks were broken伴随着那句一个字的口头语锁已经打开
Now He's leading me to places现在他正在带领我去那个地方
Where there are no tears那个没有眼泪的地方
Down by the riverside漫步在河畔
