on a wing and a prayer
备注:找了一下英文解释, “What does on a wing and a prayer mean?” [A] It means that you’re in a desperate situation and you’re relying on hope to see you through. 但是偶语文水平是在不怎么样,如果译成“绝望中祈祷”好像也不是很贴切~~~

从背景资料It means that you’re in a desperate situation and you’re relying on hope to see you through解释来看,意思可能是:当你处于绝望的形势下,只能祈祷上帝保佑了.

这个短语意思是:In poor condition, but just managing to get the job done.来源是:This phrase originated with the WWII patriotic song Coming in on a Wing and a Prayer (1943), by Harold Adamson and Jimmie McHugh, which tells of a damaged warplane, barely able to limp back to base. 来源于一首二战时期爱国歌曲上的歌词,大意是:被损的战斗机最后仅能勉强地"蹒跚"到基地. 通过分析其来源,可以得到: on a wing and a prayer 的意思是:尽管形势(严峻)恶劣,但还是设法勉强完成任务(工作).
