日升日落
昨晚通过互联网“出席”了潘宇在美国的硕士毕业典礼。
时间过得真快,回想起来,这孩子所历经的毕业典礼从海星幼稚园,拉丁马士小学,义安中学,国家初级学院到国立大学杨秀桃音乐学院,我和太太都出席了。这回,孩子坚持不让我们出席毕业典礼,也许是体恤我们
-
省得我们长途跋涉兼花钱吧?
满以为他的求学生涯可以(最低限度)暂告一段落了,不料这小子还真幸运,居然让他获得了美国纽约茱莉亚音乐学院的博士学位奖学金!或许,在美国的毕业典礼,就等他修完博士课程后再去了?
孩子仿佛突然长大了,想想这如梭岁月,心情就有如老电影《屋顶上的提琴手》(Fiddler
on the Roof)里老夫老妻感叹合唱的《日升日落》(Sunrise,Sunset!),当真是岁月不留人啊!
这就是那个我曾抱过的小女孩?
这就是那个在玩游戏的小男孩?
这就是那个在玩游戏的小男孩?

Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers,
Blossoming even as we gaze.

在我们凝视之下,一夜之间,
种子都已化为盛开的向日葵。

Swiftly fly the years,
One season following another,
Laiden with happiness and tears.

What words of wisdom can I give them,
How can I help to ease their way?

Day by day.

Laden with happiness,
And tears

岁月飞快离去,
欢笑与泪水,都洒落在悠悠的季节里。
