I had e dream …
تصوري داشتم ...

I dreamed I was walking along the beach with God.
خيال کردم که در کنار ساحل با خدا قدم مي زنم                          

                                                                 Across the sky flashed scenes from my life.
در آسمان تصويري از زندگي خود را ديدم                                 

         For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand;
در هر قسمت 2 جاي پا ديدم                                                        

                                                         One belonging to me, and the other to God.
يکي متعلق به من و ديگري به خدا                                                                         

                     When the last scene of my life flashed before me.
وقتي آخرين تصوير زندگيم را ديدم                                     

                                                                           I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
به جاي پا روي شن نگاه کردم                          

                                                                                            I noticed that many times along the path of my life there was only one set of  footprint  
ديدم که چندين زمان در زندگيم فقط يک جاي پا بيشتر نيست                                    

                                    I also noticed that it happened at very lowest and saddest times in my life  
دريافتم که اين در سخت ترين نقاط زندگيم اتفاق افتاده                

                                                           This really bothered me so I questioned God about it.
براي رفع ابهامم از خدا سوال کردم.                                                             

                                            God, you said that once I decided to follow you. You'd walk with me all the way  
خدايا فرمودي که اگر به تو ايمان بياورم هيچ زماني مرا تنها نخواهي گذاشت                  

                           But I have noticed that during the most trouble some times in my life, there  is  only one set of footprint.
ديدم که در سخت ترين لحظات زندگيم فقط يک جاي پا بيشتر نيست      

                                                   I don't understand why when I needed you most you would leave me.
چرا در زماني که بيشترين نياز به تو داشتم تنهايم گذاشتي          

                                                         God replied, "My precious, precious child"
خدا فرمود: فرزند عزيزم                        

                                                                                                      I love you, and I would never leave you.
تو را دوست دارم و تنهايت نمي گذارم          

                                                                                       During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprint
در مواقع سخت اگر يک جاي پا مي بيني               

                                                                                    It was then that I carried you.
در آن لحظات تو را بدوش کشيدم.
