To mother on Mother's Day  

 

The most beautiful song I've ever heard 

Is mother's cradle song in the moonlight

 

The deftest hands I've ever seen

are mother’s hands stitching my torn cotton padded clothes

under oil lamps  

 

The most beautiful meals I've ever had

are the baked cakes and the rolled noodles by mom

And the sweet porridge cooked in a pot 

 

The most poignant picture I have ever seen 

Is mother’s hitting me who made mistakes 

However, it was mom who shed the tears of love all over her cheeks

 

It's Mother's Day

Though having asked for everything from you half of my life

I don't know what to give you

母亲节致母亲

我听过的最美的歌

是母亲月光下的摇篮曲

我见过的最灵巧的手

是母亲在油灯下

为我缝补划破的棉衣

我吃过的最美的饭

是母亲烙的饼、擀的面

还有地锅熬香的米

我见过最凄美的画面啊

是母亲打过犯错的我

自己却滚落满腮

心疼的泪滴

今天是母亲节了

向您索取了半生的我

却不知有什么给你
