Awake and sing, you who lie in the dust! Let your dew fall, o Lord, like a dew of light, and the earth will throw out her dead.

睡在尘埃中的人们都要苏醒歌咏，因为你的朝露是晶莹的朝露，大地将抛出幽灵。

youdao

Until awake and hear birds in all places sing.

直到醒来听到鸟儿在所有的地方歌唱。

youdao

Then song sparrow will return and sing, the frogs will awake, the warm wind will blow again.

百灵会回来唱歌，青蛙也会醒来，又会吹起暖暖的风。
