daily growing (民谣) - [微量情素]
树会长高 The trees they grow high
叶会变绿 And the leaves they do grow green
多少次,我看到了自己的真爱 Many is the time my true love I've seen
几多时,我独自默默凝视着他 Many an hour I have watched him all alone
他还小,但他每天都在成长 He'syoung, but he's daily growing
爸爸啊,亲爱的爸爸 Father, dear father
你对女儿犯下了天大的错 You've done me great wrong
你把我嫁给了一个没有成人的小男孩 You have married me to a boy who is too young
我二十四岁了,而他只有十四岁 I'm twice twelve and he is but fourteen
他还小,但他每天都在成长 He's young, but he's daily growing
女儿啊,亲爱的女儿 Daughter,dear daughter
我对你并没做错什么 I've done you no wrong
我把你嫁给了一位豪门公子 I have married you to a great lord's son
一旦我死了,他将是你可以依靠的男人 He'll be a man for you when I am dead and gone
他还小,但他每天都在成长 He's young, but he's daily growing
爸爸啊,亲爱的爸爸,如果你觉得合适 Father, dear father, if you see fit
我们就送他到大学里再待一年 We'll send him to college for another year yet
我要在他头上扎条蓝丝带 I'll tie blue ribbons all around his head
让年轻的女孩们知道他已有家室 To let the maidens know that he's married
曾有一天我的视线越过家里的院墙 One day I was looking o'er my father's castle wall
看到一群男孩在玩球 I spied all the boys playing with a ball
我的真爱是他们所有人中的精英 And my own true love was the flower of them all
他还小,但他每天都在成长 He's young, but he's daily growing
那是曙光微现的清晨 And so early in the morning, at the dawning of the day
他们冲入远处的草田里 They went into the hayfield far
嬉戏玩闹 To have some sport and play
他们幼稚的行为,她羞于告人 And what they did there, she never would declare
但她再也不抱怨他的成长 But she never more complained of his growing
十四岁,他成已婚男人 At the age of fourteen, he was a married man十五岁,他做了父亲 At the age of fifteen, the faher of my son
十六岁,他坟头上绿草如茵 At the age of sixteen, his grave it was green
死亡终止了他的成长 And death had put an end to his growing
我将为爱人买来法兰绒 I'll buy my love some flannel
我将为爱人做一件寿衣 I'll make my love a shroud
一针一线 And every stitch I put in it
泪如雨下 The tears, they will pour down
千针万线 And every stitch I put in it
泪雨滂沱 How the tears, they will flow
残酷的命运终止了他的成长 cruel fate has put an end to his growing
