川沙诗歌《当年,母亲也是这般丰姿》赏析(2)

  当年,母亲也是这般丰姿

  当我在姹紫嫣红的花园里
  两排摇曳着绿叶的冬青树间
  铺着卵石的小道上
  当我看着那身着夏裙的少妇
  丰腴的身段
  白皙如玉的肌肤
  袒裸的手臂牵着那
  满脸眷恋的
  大脑袋的男孩
  花瓣般的小手儿,
  还有男孩那
  步履蹒跚的憨姿
  在这阳光融融的日子里
  在这花儿吐露芳馨
  彩蝶飘逸的夏日雨后
  在这恬静怡人的伊甸园

  呵!
  那个年代
  也是在一个姹紫嫣红的花园里
  在两排摇曳着绿叶的冬青树间
  在铺着卵石的小道上
  在这花儿吐露芳馨
  彩蝶飘逸的夏日雨后
  也是这般伊甸园似的恬静怡人
  当年
  母亲也是这般丰姿。

  Mother as Beautiful

  I was taking a walk in a garden
  Along a trail of cobbled lane
  Lined by two rails of evergreen trees
  When I saw a young woman in a summer skirt
  Beautifully shaped
  Marble white skin
  Taking the little hands of
  A big-headed boy who looked at his mother
  With love
  The boy walked slowly, clumsily
  With endearing hesitation
  Bright day when the sunshine poured down
  Upon the fragrant flowers
  After the rain butterflies danced around making
  The garden Eden-like in peace 

  Oh, what a time
  It was!
  It was in a flowery garden
  That a cobbled lane led to before
  The evergreen trees nodding with leaves upward
  The sun appeared after a summer shower
  And shone on the fragrant flowers around which
  Butterflies danced
  Peaceful just like Eden
  That year Mother was like that
  Young and beautiful
