Before Two Portraits of My Mother
两幅母亲肖像前
I love the beautiful young girl of this
portrait, my mother, painted years ago
when her forehead was white, and there was no
shadow in the dazzling Venetian glass
of her gaze. But this other likeness shows
the deep trenches across her forehead’s white
marble. The rose poem of her youth that
her marriage sang is far behind. Here is
my sadness: I compare these portraits, one
of a joy-radiant brow, the other care-
heavy: sunrise—and the thick coming on
of night. And yet how strange my ways appear,
for when I look at these faded lips my heart
smiles, but at the smiling girl my tears start.
—Emile Nelligan (1879-1941)
我深爱这名美丽少女的画像，
她是我的母亲，绘制于多年前
当时她的前额白皙无瑕
如同威尼斯玻璃般闪亮，没有一丝阴影 在她双眸中。
但另一幅肖像显出深深的纹痕布满她皎白大理石般平滑的前额
她少女时的那 首玫瑰情诗
曾在她婚礼中被咏唱，如今已经远去。
此时我心悲伤：比较这两幅肖像
一幅显得 神情愉悦，另一幅显得心事重重
一幅如同朝阳初升
另一幅则如迎面而来的阴郁 黑夜。
然而我的反应却显得非比寻常
因为当我看着她失去光泽的`双唇，
我心发出微笑，但看着那名微笑的少女
我的泪竟开始涌出。
—艾米里·奈利根 (1879-1941)
What rules the World?
什么支配着世界?
They say that man is mighty,
都说人力无穷
He governs land and sea;
支配着陆地与大海
He wields a mighty scepter
行使着至高无上的王权
O’er lesser powers that be;
统治着弱小的生灵
But a mightier power and stronger,
然而还有更强大的力量
Man from his throne has hurled,
将人从宝座上掀起
And the hand that rocks the cradle
是那双轻推着摇篮的手
Is the hand that rules the world
主宰着整个世界
--BY William Ross Wallace. (1819–1881)
I Love You, Mom
... and I Want You to Know Why
I Feel So Proud to Be Your Daughter
You are a remarkable woman
who accomplishes so much as a
strong woman
in a man's world
You are strong but soft
You are strong but caring
You are strong but compassionate
You are a remarkable woman
who accomplishes so much as a
giving woman
in a selfish world
You give to your friends
You give to your family
You give to everyone
You are a remarkable woman
who is also a remarkable mother
And you are loved by so many people
whose lives you have touched -especially me
