Beloved Old Man Daddy 親愛的老爹

      


              
You’re my beloved Old Man Daddy.
您是我親愛的老爹
Gentle as you were, meek and mild your life drew although it’s in difficulty.
您過去的生活雖然充滿荊棘, 您還是如此祥和. 逆來順受
Somehow you're also stubborn with tough character, it made you like an old time Mr. Big.
您也總是有著頑固相當倔強的性格, 這讓您像個舊時代的大男人
A family leader and supporter was your favorite job, you preferred to be.
做為一個家庭的領袖和支柱是您最喜愛的工作, 您喜歡的角色
Gone through decades and seasons changed over and over again.
走過幾十年, 季節更迭無數次
Your precious memory was your childhood countryside, your born hometown.
您最珍貴的記憶是在你兒時的鄉間, 您出生的故鄉
Your figure, your smile, your words and your breath, I remember them all.
您的身影, 您的笑容, 您的言語和您的氣息, 我都完全記得
The happiest time I love was the family dinner moment you were with us.
我最喜愛的時光是您與我們一起用餐的家庭晚餐時刻
 
How can I let you go ?
我如何能讓您走
How I wish you’re still here-sitting on your chair.
我多麼希望您仍然還在, 坐在您的椅子上
The chair exists there, now it’s vacant.
椅子仍在那兒, 現在是空的
Will you be back and sit there again ?
您會回來再坐那兒嗎 ?
Dear Old Man Daddy, please don’t forget me, don’t forget your family.
親愛的老爹, 請不要忘記我, 不要忘記您的家人
I try to hold your hands, don’t go.
我試著要拉住您的手, 不要走
I know you’re in your world where now you belong to, you’re also in here.
我知道您已在屬於您的世界, 同時您也還在這裡
I love you, we love you, dearest Old Man Daddy.
我愛您, 我們愛您, 最親愛的老爹
I let you go, I also catch at your spirit.
我讓您走, 同時我也抓住了您的精神
 

此首詩用以紀念我已經逝世的公公, 日前是他生前生日而有所感,
也送給我一位我親愛的格友~願你一切安好且恢復力量往前行~
