There's a spot in my heart
which no colleen may own;
There's a depth in my soul
never sounded or known;
There's a place in my memory
my life that you fill;
No other can take it
no one ever will;
Every sorrow or care
in the dear days gone by;
Was made bright by the light
of the smile in your eye;
Like a candle that's set
in a window at night;
Your fond love has cheered me
and guided me right;
Sure I love the dear silver
that shines in your hair;
And the brow that's all furrowed
and wrinkled with care;
I kiss the dear fingers
so toil warm for me;
Oh! God bless you and
keep you, mother machree!
在我的心靈之中
有個地方，深不可測
其境從未與聞
哪個少女也難問津；
在我的記憶之中
我的生命充滿妳的身影
誰也不能取代
永遠無人有此真情；
珍貴時光悠悠逝去
辛勞煩擾卻永不消停
妳眼中的微笑，其光彩
使煩勞轉為光明；
宛如點燃的燭光
深夜透窗欞
妳深情的愛激勵我
引領我壹直前進；
是的，我愛妳如銀的發絲
閃爍著深情的光芒
我愛妳額上道道皺紋
歲月刻滿滄桑
我吻妳勤勞的手指
雙手柔情溫暖我心房；
啊，慈母在我心
蒼天保佑，福壽永綿長！
