《新月集》第37篇-The Gift
配乐:勃拉姆斯 -D大调小提琴协奏曲(片段)
THE GIFT
I want to give you something, my child, for weare drifting in the stream of the world.
Our lives will be carried apart, and our loveforgotten.
But I am not so foolish as to hope that I couldbuy your heart with my gifts.
Young is your life, your path long, and youdrink the love we bring you at one draught and turn and run away from us.
You have your play and your playmates. Whatharm is there if you have no time or thought for us?
We, indeed, have leisure enough in old age tocount the days that are past, to cherish in our hearts what our hands have lostfor ever.
The river runs swift with a song, breakingthrough all barriers. But the mountain stays and remembers, and follows herwith his love.

可我却不会那样傻,希望能用我的礼品来收买你的心。
你的生命正值青春,你前路漫漫,你一口气饮尽了我们带给你的爱,然后转身,跑离了我们。
你有你的游戏,有你的玩伴。如果你没有时间同我们在一起,如果你没空想到我们,那有什么害处呢?
听不懂你教我
