《生日快乐》
——写给今天满七岁的女儿
大人们常说
三岁看大
老人们也说
七岁看老
我有點大，是大人了
也有點老了，但还不算老人
看着你，我的小宝
還是无法想像你的大和你的老
你常常問
媽咪你愛我嗎？
我說愛呀！
你还覺得不夠
要和我比高下
“媽咪我愛你比你愛我多一點點儿”
“你是我的最爱，我也是你的最爱吗？”
Happy Birthday
——To my daughter who turns seven years old today
As an old Chinese saying goes---
One can be seen how her adulthood could be when she is still 3 years old,
How her old age could be when she is still 7 years old
I'm an adult and I'm a bit old
But not a old woman yet
Looking at you, my baby
I still can't imagine your adulthood and what your old age would be like
You often ask
Mommy, do you love me?
I said I do love you
You don't think it's enough.
To challenge me, you say
"Mommy, I love you a little more than you love me"
"You are my favorite, and am I also your favorite?"
我蜜得嘴上就說謝謝你——
寶貝，行了，行了
心上說拿出行動听话呀！
你立刻给我一个大大的拥抱和一个甜甜的亲吻
真的很開心，真的也很高興
有你這麼一個小粉絲
你大啦！
你漸漸地長大了
我的梦，你的梦想
我们的世界
无论如何
无论你几岁
无论何时何地
请保有那粉红色，金光灿烂的梦想
保有一颗色彩缤纷，真诚的爱心
还有我们钟爱的绿色，如春雨般清新温暖的希望
亲爱的宝贝
要乐观 要独立 要坚强
My heart melts with your loveliness and I say “thank you” —
Baby, all right, all right
I also say action speaks louder than words.
Will you listen and obey me?
You immediately give me a big hug and a sweet kiss.
Happy and thrilled that
I have a little fan like you
You are getting bigger
You grow bigger each day
My dream, your dream, and our world
No mater what
No matter how old you are
No matter when and where you are
Please keep that pink and golden dream
Keep a colorful, sincere loving heart
Fresh and warm, like spring rain, the color of green, it’s the hope that we are deeply in love with
Baby, sweetheart, my darling
Be optimistic, be independent, and be strong
生日快乐！
