Heart Song
心灵之歌
Patty Hanson/帕蒂·汉森
Once upon a time,there was a great man who married the woman of his dreams.With their love,they created a little girl.She was a bright and cheerful little girl and the great man loved her very much.
When she was very little,he would pick her up,hum a tune and dance with heraround the room,and he would tell her,“I love you,little girl!”
When the little girl was growing up,the great man would hug her and tell her,“I love you,little girl.”The little girl would pout and say,“I’m not a little girl anymore.”Then the man would laugh and say,“But to me,you‘ll always be my little girl.”
The little girl who-was-not-little-anymore left her home and went into the world.As she learned more about herself,she learned more about the man.She saw that he truly was great and strong,for now she recognized his strengths.One of his strengths was his ability to express his love to his family.It didn’t matter where she went in the world,the man would call her and say,“I love you,little girl.”
从前,有个男人娶到了他梦寐以求的人为妻。后来,他们有了一个聪明伶俐的小女儿,那是他们爱情的结晶,男人很爱她。
女孩很小时,男人就抱着她,哼着小曲,在屋子里翩翩起舞,并告诉她:“小女儿,我爱你!”
小女孩渐渐长大了,这个男人仍然经常拥抱她,并告诉她:“我爱你,小女儿!”此时小女孩会撅起嘴一脸严肃地说:“我已不再是小女孩了。”男人就笑着说:“但在我眼里,你永远都是我的小女孩。”
后来,小女孩长大了,离开家,步人了社会。她逐渐对自己有了进一步的了解,也更理解爸爸了。她觉得爸爸的确很了不起,因为现在她看到了他的力量,他能向家人表达自己的爱,这就是其中之一。无论她走到哪里,男人都会打来电话对她说:“小女儿,我爱你!”
The day came when the little girl who—was—not—little—anymore received a phone call.The great man was damaged.He had had a stroke.He was aphasic,they explained to the girl.He couldn‘t talk anymore and they weren’t sure that he could understand the wordsspoken to him.He could no longer smile,laugh,walk,hug,dance or tell the little girl who—was—not—little—anymore that he loved her.
