Weep, daughter of a royal line,
为父王的耻辱,王国的衰颓,
A Sire's disgrace, a realm's decay;
你尽情哭泣吧,皇家的公主!
Ah! happy if each tear of thine
但愿你的每一滴泪水
Could wash a father's fault away!
能洗掉父亲一桩错处。
Weep—for thy tears are Virtue's tears—
你的眼泪是“美德”的眼泪,
Auspicious to these suffering isles;
将为这多难的岛国造福;
And be each drop in future years
人民将会在未来的年岁
Repaid thee by thy people's smiles!
以笑颜回报你每一滴泪珠。
