COAT OF MANY COLORS 五顏六色的外套
（Written by Dolly Parton） Back through the years I go wandering again 再一次的，我又想起了過去的歲月 Back to the seasons of my youth 想起了我童年的時光 I recall a box of rags that someone gave us 我記得有一盒子人家給我們的碎布 And how my mama put the rags to use 還有媽媽怎樣的把那些碎布派上用場 They were rags of many colors but every piece was small 那些碎布花色很多，但每一塊都很小 And I didn't have a coat and it was way down in the fall 當時我沒有外套可穿，而又已經是秋涼時分 Mama sewed the rags together, sewing every piece with love 媽媽用她的愛心，把那些碎布一片片縫接起來 She made my coat of many colors that I was so proud of 她替我做了那件讓我無比自豪的，五顏六色的外套 As she sewed she told a story from the Bible she had read 她一邊縫衣，一邊告訴我一個她從聖經裡讀過的故事 About a coat of many colors Joseph wore and then she said 關於一件約瑟曾經穿過的多彩外衣，然後她又說 Perhaps this coat will bring you good luck and happiness 也許這件外套會給你帶來好運和幸福 And I couldn't wait to wear it and mama blessed it with a kiss 我迫不及待的把它穿上，媽媽又加上了祝福的一吻 My coat of many colors that my mama made for me 我那媽媽為我做的、五顏六色的外套 Made only from rags but I wore it so proudly 雖然只是碎布做的，但我穿在身上無比自豪 Although we had no money, I was rich as I could be 儘管我們沒有錢，我卻覺得自己無比富有 In my coat of many colors my mama made for me 當我穿上我那媽媽為我做的、五顏六色的外套 So with patches on my breeches and holes in both my shoes 於是穿著打了補釘的褲子，還有兩腳都已磨穿孔的鞋子 In my coat of many colors I hurried off to school 罩上了我那五顏六色的外套，我匆匆的趕到學校 Just to find the others laughing and making fun of me 卻只見別人都在笑，他們都嘲弄我 In my coat of many colors my mama made for me 還有我身上那媽媽為我做的、五顏六色的外套 And oh, I couldn't understand it for I felt I was rich 而我真的無法瞭解，因為我覺得自己好富有 And I told them of the love my mama sewed in every stitch 我告訴他們媽媽縫在每一針每一線裡面的愛 And I told them of the story mama told me while she sewed 我還告訴他們媽媽縫衣的時候說給我聽的故事 And how my coat of many colors was worth more than all their clothes 以及我那五顏六色的外套，是如何的比他們所有的衣裳都更珍貴 They didn't understand it and I tried to make them see 他們無法理解，而我努力的讓他們明白 That one is only poor only if they choose to be 一個人只有志窮的時候才是真正的貧窮 Now I know we had no money but I was rich as I could be 我知道我們沒有錢，但我卻覺得自己無比富有 In my coat of many colors my mama made for me 當我身穿我那媽媽為我做的、五顏六色的外套 Made just for me 媽媽特別為我做的外套
