When I am Old 當我老了…

Old_man_by_MaraDamian

當我老了,不再是原來的我。
When I’m old, I’m not what I was.
請理解我,對我有一點耐心。
Please understand me, be patient facing me.


當我把菜湯灑到自己的衣物上時,
When I dropped the soup on my cloth,
當我忘記怎樣繫鞋帶時,
When I could not remember how to tie up shoe’s string,
請想一想, 當初我是如何手把手地教你。
Please remember the time when I taught you, I trained you how to do.


當我一遍又一遍地重複你早已聽膩的話語,
I with my senility keep telling you continually the sentence that made you bored,
請耐心地聽我說,不要打斷我。
Please be patient to listen to me.
你小的時候,我不得不重複那個講過千百遍的故事,直到你進入夢鄉。
When you were child, I need to repeat again and again the story that I have told you thousand times until you slept.


當我需要你幫我洗澡時,
When I need you to shower me,
請不要責備我。
Please do not blame me.
還記得小時候我千方百計哄你洗澡的情況嗎?
Do you still remember when you were child, how with my many different ways to persuade to take a shower?


當我對新科技和新事物不知所措時,
When I confused facing the new things and modern technology,
請不要嘲笑我。
Do not laugh at me.
想一想當初我怎樣耐心的回答你的每一個「為什麼」。
Please muse how with my patient I answered your every “Why” questions?


當我由於雙腿疲勞而沒法行走時,
When my both leg too weak for walking,
請伸出你年輕有力的手去攙扶我。
Please give me your strong hand to support me.
就像你小時候學習走路時,我扶你那樣。
as if your child time, I guide you how to step your leg to start walking.


當我忽然忘記我們談話的主題,
When I forget our topic conversation,
請給我一些時間讓我回想。
Please give me sometime to try to remember.
其實對我來說,談論什麼並不重要,
Actually, the topic conversation is not important things for me,
只要你能在一旁聽我說,我就很滿足。
If you stand by me to listen to me, I have been happy.


當你看著老去的我,請不要悲傷。
When you see me getting old, don’t be sad.
理解我,支持我,
Please understand me, please support me.
就像你剛開始學習如何生活時我對你那樣。
Like how I guide you when you started learning about life.


當初我引導你走上人生路,
In the past, I guided you passing through this life’s way,
如今請陪伴我走完最後的路。
Now, please accompany me until the end of my life’s way.
給我你的愛心,我會報以感激的微笑。
Please give you love and patient. I will receive it with my smile and my gratitude to God.
這微笑中凝結著我對你無限的愛。
In my smile, there is unlimited love for you.

Appreciate our parents and what they do for us….be good to them and treat them as how they treat us when we was a child.
Do what can we do now,help them,accompany them,love them,and you will not regret until the end of their life’s way…….
