I am a poor, wayfaring stranger
Я бедный, путешествующий незнакомец,
Wandering through this land of woe
Блуждающий по этой земле горя.
Yet there's no sickness, toil or danger
Но нет никакой болезни, труда или опасности,
In that bright land to which I go
В той светлой земле, в которую я иду.
I'm going there to meet my mother
Я буду там со своей матерью.
She said she'll meet me when I come
Она сказала, что встретит меня, когда я приду.
I'm only going over Jordan
Я всего лишь иду через Иордан.
I'm only going over to home
Я всего лишь иду домой.
I'll soon be free of every trial
Я скоро буду свободен от всех испытаний.
My body rests in the old graveyard
Мое тело покоится на старом кладбище.
I'll drop my cross of self-denial
Я брошу свой крест самоотречения
And enter on my great reward
И выйду на сцену за своей великой наградой.
I'm going there to meet my father
Я буду там со своим отцом.
I'm going there no more to roam
Я больше не буду странствовать.
I'm only going over Jordan
Я всего лишь иду через Иордан.
I'm only going over home
Я всего лишь иду домой.
I want to wear the crown of glory
Я хочу носить нимб,
When I get home to that good land
Когда вернусь в эту добрую землю.
I want to shout salvation's glory
Я хочу кричать о славе спасителя
In concert with the blood washed band
Вместе с группой омытых кровью.
I'm going there to meet my savior
Я иду туда встретиться со своим спасителем,
To sing his praise forever more
Петь похвалы вечно.
I'm only going over Jordan
Я всего лишь иду через Иордан.
I'm only going over home
Я всего лишь иду домой.
