PHENOMENAL WOMAN
by Maya Angelou

Pretty women wonder where my secret lies
I'm not cute or built to suit a model's fashion size
But when I start to tell them
They think I'm telling lies.
I say
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips
The stride of my steps
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally
Phenomenal woman
That's me.

I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please
And to a man
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees
Then they swarm around me
A hive of honey bees.
I say
It's the fire in my eyes
And the flash of my teeth
The swing of my waist
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally
Phenomenal woman
That's me.

Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can't see.
I say
It's in the arch of my back
The sun of my smile
The ride of my breasts
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally
Phenomenal woman
That's me.

Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say
It's in the click of my heels
The bend of my hair
The palm of my hand
The need for my care.
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally
Phenomenal woman
That's me.

 

这首歌也蛮好听的:

chic 回复 悄悄话 am very glady. xixi : )

degree 回复 悄悄话 You really honored me by posting this Poem with your comments that "With Degree."Gong Mian"..". Sorry I cannot type Chinese in this computer, and still did not figure out how to do that. You already used your cheerful blog (a new term I just learned) to cheer me up a lot. I like your blog and the first time I was attracted to it was by its title "Refuse to Recall" (sorry about the lousy translation. Your Chinese title is much beautiful and elegant than my English version). My mood has been changed a lot by this poem and by you also. Did I tell you a few days ago that I have looked forward to logging in your blog and reading your postings and listening to the songs there. I like this song also. Ok, enough about me, me, and still me. Hope you have a relaxing evening. BTW, I did try to set up my own blog, but some terms are so foreign to me that I just could not complete the setup. Until I set up mine, I will certainly share my site with you.
