When You Believe是动画片《埃及王子》的主题曲,由当红的天后级歌星玛丽亚凯利和元老级天后惠特妮休斯顿共同演唱,创作灵感来自于动画片主角回忆想象上帝祈祷的场景,起初,他们祈祷数夜,上帝却未曾答应,最终却坚信,只要相信上帝,奇迹就一定会出现,也就是歌词中的There can be miracles when you believe, 这也是本首歌的主题所在。

英文歌词

Many nights we pray
With no proof anyone could hear
In our hearts a hopeful song
We barely understood
Now we are not afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains long
Before we know we could
There can be miracles
When you believe
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe
In this time of fear
When prayer so often proves in vain
Hope seems like the summer birds
Too swiftly flown away
And now I'm standing here
My heart's so full I can't explain
Seeking faith and speaking words
I never thought I'd say
There can be miracles……
They don't always happen when you asked
And it is easy to give in to your fear
But when you're blinded by your pain
Can't see your way safe through the rain
Thought of a still resilient voice
Says love is very near
There can be miracles

中文歌词

多少个夜晚我们在祈祷
并非每个人都能听见
我们心中的希望之歌
自己也不能理解
现在我们并不害怕
虽然我们知道未来有许多艰难险阻
我们负重已久
只是原来并不清楚我们的能力
奇迹将会出现
只要你肯相信
希望虽然渺茫
却不可磨灭
谁知道你会创造怎样的奇迹
只要你肯相信
你就会
只要你肯相信,你就会创造奇迹
在害怕的时候
当祈祷变得苍白无力
希望就像夏日里的鸟儿
悄然飞逝
现在我伫立于此
心中充满无限莫名的希望
寻求信念
说出从未想到会说过的话
奇迹一定会出现
虽然当你需要时 它并不总会出现
你向内心的恐惧屈服了
但是当你被痛苦蒙住了双眼
在风雨中看不见未来的出路时
听到有一个声音回荡在你耳边
说,爱就在你身边
奇迹将会出现
