发这条朋友圈那天是父亲节,去年。
那天我带崽驶离那拉提大草原,返回阿克苏沙雅县。
道路两旁的景色使人感觉很不真实,尤其对于生长在平原地区的我们。
我遇见学过的所有词汇都难以契合地形容它的壮美,人往往会高估自身文明,语言,词句的力量在大自然面前也时常不值得发声。
巍峨,挺拔,每一棵树,一株随风摇曳的小草都散发出旺盛的生命力,哪怕只是近身,你也能感受得到这种力量。
我的父亲物理身高算不上巍峨,但绝对是挺拔的力量型。从我记事起,他就会用坛子装沙土练习上肢力量,用废弃轮胎练习深蹲,青年时期还订购了县城唯一一份武术杂志,时隔半个多世纪,仍可以借鉴里面的插画动作。
上周他主厨做饭,还秀起了摆盘。
Father‘s Love 父亲的爱
Fathers seldom say”I love you”
Though the feeling’s always there,
But somehow those three little words
Are the hardest ones to share.
父亲们很少说“我爱你”
虽然那份感情从不曾远离
但不知为何这简单的三个字
却最难以用言语传递
And fathers say”I love you”
In ways that words can’t match-
With tender bed time stories
Or a friendly game of catch!
其实父亲说“我爱你”
用的方式非言语所能比拟——
或是温和地在床头讲故事
或是一场友好的捉迷藏游戏
You can see the words “I love you”
In a father’s boyish eyes
When he runs home,all excited,
With a poorly wrapped surprise.
你看得到他说“我爱你”
从父亲那孩子气的眼睛里
当他兴奋地跑回家
脸上带着难以掩饰的惊喜
A father says”I love you”
With his strong helping hands
With a smile when you’re in trouble
With the way he understands.
父亲说“我爱你”
用他坚实有力、扶助儿女的手臂
用帮你渡过难关时的微笑
用他所理解的方式爱你
He says”I love you”haltingly,
With awkward tenderness-
It’s hard to help a four-year-old into a
Party dress!
他踌躇地说“我爱你”
带着笨拙的温柔——
帮一个四岁小孩穿派对礼服实在是
不容易
He speaks his love unselfishly
By giving all he can
To make some secret dream come true,
Or follow through a plan .
他无私地表达他的慈爱心意
哪怕付出他的全部家底
只为让儿女心底的梦想成真
或将制定的计划坚持到底
A father’s seldom-spoken love
Sounds clearly through the years-
Sometimes in peals of laughter,
Sometimes through happy tears.
父亲很少说出口的爱
随着光阴流逝变得清晰——
有时在响亮的笑声中
有时在欢乐的泪水里
Perhaps they have to speak their love
In a fashion all their own,
Because the love that fathers feel
Is too big for words alone!
可能他们表达爱
只能用自己的方式
因为父亲的爱如此深厚
岂是言语所能诠释
