作词 : 董玉芳 作曲 : 许飞/许飞 1984 I didn’t reap enough crops around 一九八四年 庄稼还没收割完 Nestled snugly in my arms, my boy slept so sound 儿子躺在我怀里 睡得那么甜 No time left to see a film in the open ground 今晚的露天电影 没时间去看 My wife sighed wearily -- the old sewing machine was down 妻子提醒我 修修缝纫机的踏板
Tomorrow I would borrow more from the next door 明天我要去 邻居家再借点钱 Craving for biscuits all day, my poor boy cried on the floor 孩子哭了一整天哪 闹着要吃饼干 My old blue jacket could not mask the heartfelt sore 蓝色的涤卡上衣 痛往心里钻 Squatting near a pond, I punched myself twice or more 蹲在池塘边上 狠狠给了自己两拳 Those stanzas are locked up in my papa’s journal 这是我父亲 日记里的文字 His verses record his youth and make it eternal 这是他的青春留下 留下来的散文诗 Tears flowing hard, my heart can’t help but tremble 多年以后我看着泪流不止 Aging in shadow, he always stays so humble 可我的父亲已经老得像一个影子 1994 I reaped all crops around 一九九四年 庄稼早已收割完 My old mum departed this world without a sound 我的老母亲去年 离开了人间 With a white shirt, my boy rushed to school in the town 儿子穿着白衬衫 跑进了校园 He seemed to feel weighed down these days, losing several pounds 可是他最近有些心事 瘦了一大圈 In the years ahead, I would be as old as useless paper 想一想未来 我老成了一堆旧纸钱 But then my boy would mature, with duty on his shoulders 那时的儿子已是 真正的男子汉 A girl loves his soul and he would marry her 有个可爱的姑娘 和他成了家 Hope they could live a more beautiful life together 但愿他们 不要活得如此艰难 Those stanzas are locked up in my papa’s journal 这是我父亲日记里的文字 His verses store his life and make it eternal 这是他的生命留下 留下来的散文诗 Tears flowing hard, my heart can’t help but tremble 多年以后我看着泪流不止 Aging in shadow, he always stays so humble 可我的父亲已经老得像一个影子 Those stanzas are locked up in my papa’s journal 这是我父亲日记里的文字 His verses store his life and make it eternal 这是他的生命留下 留下来的散文诗 Tears flowing hard, my heart can’t help but tremble 多年以后我看着泪流不止 Now he’s like the yellowed newspaper, old and unnoticeable 可我的父亲在风中 像一张旧报纸 Bygone generations left their footprints on this land 这是那一辈人留下的足迹 With winds and rains, almost everything slipped from hands 几场风雨后就要抹去了痕迹 Memories of the past bring sorrows that I can’t stand 这片土地曾让我泪流不止 They have all been buried in tears and shifting sands 可它埋葬了多少人辛酸的往事
