Then and Now: Happy 27th Anniversary
27 years ago, two young graduate students fell in love and got married after knowing each other only about 4 months. By no means, those 27 years have been perfect. We have had disagreements and arguments. However, by all means, those have been loving, fun and adventurous 27 years. By God’s grace, we are looking forward to having many more years together. “To grow old along with me, the best yet to be” (Robert Browning). Happy 27th Anniversary, my beloved husband!
27年前,两位年轻的研究生几乎是一见钟情,认识4个月左右就步入婚姻的殿堂。27年的岁月是身心灵磨合、喜怒哀乐的情感诗;27年的岁月是携手协力与幼女共同成长的亲子画;27年的岁月是油盐酱醋、锅碗瓢盆的交响曲。。。。。。在这特殊的日子,不会写诗的我就从读过的诗中“偷”二首最能代表我感情的诗,献给同承生命之舟27年的先生,感恩同行过的岁月,憧憬与子偕老的未来。。。。。。
《我的心灵和我的一切》
(作者:卡蒙斯,译者:肖佳平)
我的心灵和我的一切,
我都愿你拿去,
只求你给我留下一双眼睛,
让我能看到你。
在我的身上,
没有不曾被你征服的东西,
你夺去了它的生命,
也就将它的死亡携去。
如果我还须失掉什么,
但愿你将我带去,
只求你给我留下一双眼睛,
让我能看到你。
《How Do I Love Thee》
(by Elizabeth Barrett Browning )
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight.
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace
I love thee to the level of everyday's
Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.
I love thee freely, as men strive for right
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints, --I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! -- and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
音乐《爱的抒怀》
