Chapter 45

Have you not heard his silent steps? He comes, comes, ever comes.
 
Every moment and every age, every day and every night he comes, comes, ever comes.
 
Many a song have I sung in many a mood of mind, but all their notes have always proclaimed¹, ‘He comes, comes, ever comes.’
 
In the fragrant² days of sunny April through the forest path he comes, comes, ever comes.
 
In the rainy gloom of July nights on the thundering chariot of clouds he comes, comes, ever comes.
 
In sorrow after sorrow it is his steps that press upon my heart, and it is the golden touch of his feet that makes my joy to shine.
 
你没有听见他静悄的脚步吗？他正在走来，走来，一直不停地走来。
 
每一个时间，每一个年代，每日每夜，他总在走来，走来，一直不停地走来。
 
在许多不同的心情里，我唱过许多歌曲，但在这些歌调里，我总在宣告说：“他正在走来，走来，一直不停地走来。”
 
四月芬芳的晴天里，他从林径中走来，走来，一直不停地走来。
 
七月阴暗的雨夜中，他坐着隆隆的云辇，前来，前来，一直不停地前来。
 
愁闷相继之中，是他的脚步踏在我的心上，是他的双脚的黄金般的接触，使我的快乐发出光辉。
