Grandpa had a piano it was built in 1904
[Kongkong punya piano yang dibangun tahun 1904]
He brought it down from Sydney town before the First World War
[Dia membawanya dari Sydney sebelum Perang Dunia Pertama]
He'd sit down and crack his knuckles put his glasses on his head
[Dia duduk, memecahkan jari, dan menaruh kacamatanya di kepala]
When he'd start to play the cat would run and hide behind the bed
[Begitu dia mulai bermain, kucingnya langsung lari sembunyi di balik tempat tidur]
Well his right foot stomped the pedals and his left foot stomped the floor
[Kaki kanannya menginjak pedal, kaki kirinya menginjak lantai]
His wrinkled hands would skip the keys that wouldn't play no more
[Tangan keriputnya melompati tuts yang sudah tidak berbunyi]
He'd play Onward Christian Soldiers and the window panes would shake
[Dia memainkan "Onward Christian Soldiers" dan jendela bergetar]
When the man of 87 played his old 88
[Saat pria berusia 87 tahun itu memainkan piano tuanya yang ber-88 tuts]
The piano sat in a corner on a sagging hardwood floor
[Piano itu terletak di sudut di atas lantai kayu yang melorot]
On top was a frame I made for him with a picture of the Lord.
[Di atasnya ada bingkai yang aku buat untuknya dengan gambar Tuhan]
A faded baptist hymnal took its place above the keys
[Sebuku lagu baptis yang pudar diletakkan di atas tuts]
We'd take turns sitting by him he'd nod we'd turn the page
[Kami bergantian duduk di sampingnya, dia mengangguk, kami membalik halaman]
Well the old piano's silent now it don't ring with joy no more
[Piano tua itu sekarang sudah diam, tidak berbunyi ceria lagi]
Except sometimes when the cat jumps down when there's someone at the door
[Kecuali kadang-kadang kucingnya melompat turun saat ada orang di pintu]
I can see him up in heaven with a smile upon his face
[Aku bisa melihatnya di surga dengan senyum di wajahnya]
When God and all the angels let him lead Amazing Grace
[Saat Tuhan dan semua malaikat membiarkannya memimpin "Amazing Grace"]
