1 This Land Is Your Land (Excerpts)

Woody Guthrie

This land is your land, this land is my land

From California to the New York island,

From the redwood forest to the Gulf Stream waters;

This land was made for you and me.

As I was walking that ribbon of highway

I saw above me that endless skyway;

I saw below me that golden valley;

This land was made for you and me.

I've roamed and rambled and I followed my footsteps

To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts;

And all around me a voice was sounding:

This land was made for you and me.

When the sun came shining, and I was strolling ,

And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling,

As the fog was lifting a voice was chanting:

This land was made for you and me.

这土地是你的土地（节选）

伍迪·格思里

这土地是你的土地，也是我的土地

从加利福尼亚到纽约岛

从红杉树林到墨西哥湾流

这土地是为你我创造的

当我漫步在蜿蜒如带的公路

我看到头顶无边无际的天空

我看到脚下金色的山谷

这土地是为你我创造的

我徜徉着并跟随着我的脚步

去到那钻石般闪闪发光的沙漠

我耳边响彻着一个声音：

这土地是为你我创造的

当太阳无限明媚时，我一直在徜徉

麦田中波浪滚滚，白云飘荡

雾气正在消散，一个声音在吟唱：

这土地是为你我创造的
