Walk You Down the Aisle

(2019-12-13 04:36:56) 下一个

文/子同

Dust off all the albums, bring up the memory 
Rewind the melody of your growing up in a dance of reverie 
Tune up the piano, and with a fateful march
Walk you down the aisle, toward the rose-bound arch

Let the ring root love in the soil of your soul
And ribbon the zero-milestone in your journey with the white lace today 
Let the promise be engraved in the path to your goal
Echoing the vow around ocean cliffs until the rocks decay

You were my dawning star
My window light
My New Year calendar 
My summer flight
My topic,my lyric 
My kitchen’s calling
My sleep talking
I thought you were a growing mast always in my sight
But today I realize on my horizon
You are becoming a leaving flashlight

May those painful days we suffered never come to you
When a mother had to tear herself away 
from her unaccompanied child 
At the airport year after year 
And when a father had to leave his little girl home alone day after day 

May you never be trapped as we were  in an invisible cage
while seeking the lake of life
Gazing at the different sky

May in your life the ocean, the border, and the career never become a force majeure to forge a hopeless separation

May in your sky all the towering storm clouds of crisis, menace, and despair 
be always turned into a tranquil drizzle in the fields of faith, hope, and love.

And may God bless you and each and everyone of us

附子同译文:

步入婚姻殿堂

 

拂去影集的尘封 

唤醒记忆

在梦幻的纷舞中 

回放 你成长的旋律

校准琴弦 踏着命运之曲

带你 走进婚誓的殿堂 

走向爱的荆棘

 

让这枚戒指 植爱

于你灵魂的深处

用今天的婚纱 扎成里程的原点

立在你生命之旅

将今天的誓言 

镌刻 于你砥砺的途中

让这初心 回荡在崖岸 

直至海枯石烂

 

曾经 

你是 我早出时的晨星

你是 我晚归时的窗灯

你是我新年的挂历 

是夏季的别离

是我每支歌的歌词 每日的话题

是来自厨房的呼唤 

来自梦境的呓语

我以为你会不断长大

成为我们航行的帆桅

今天 我才知道

在我生命的地平线上

你正成为一道 远去的光辉

 

愿 你们

不再重复我们的疼痛

母亲 不再年复一年 

忍受 骨肉分离

父亲 不再日复一日

经历 牵肠挂肚

 

愿 你们

在寻找生命之湖的途中

不再重复我们的悲哀

眼 望着不同的天空

身 陷于无形的囹圄

 

愿 你们的人生中

海洋 国界 事业

永不成为命运之山

铸成无望的分离

 

愿 你们的天空中

所有乌云压顶般的

危机 威胁 和绝望

都化为 无声的丝雨

滋润你们的信心

希望和爱的心渠

人参花 回复 悄悄话 感动得一塌糊涂。地方选的好美,高,大,上。喜欢。
最感动的是父女情,你的留恋,你的祝福,你对孩子的希冀。特别理解“你早晨起来的晨星,你晚归回来的窗灯”,孩子充斥了你天和地之间所有的空间。父女情深。
子同不容易,单手带大孩子,情更深。致个意。
