孩子..

　　the day that you see me old and i am already not, have patience and try to understand me

　　哪天你看到我日漸老去,身體也漸漸不行,請耐著性子試著了解我

　　if i get dirty when eating if i can not dress have patience. remember the hours i spent teaching it to you.

　　如果我吃的臟兮兮,如果我不會穿衣服 有耐性一點 你記得我曾花多久時間教你這些事嗎?

　　if, when i speak to you, i repeat the same things thousand and one times do not interrupt me listen to me

　　如果,當我一再重復述說同樣的事情不要打斷我,聽我說.

　　when you were small, i had to read to you thousand and one times the same story until you get to sleep

　　when i do not want to have a shower, neither shame me nor scold me

　　你小時候,我必須一遍又一遍的讀著同樣的故事,直到你靜靜睡著..當我不想洗澡,不要羞辱我也不要責罵我

　　remember when i had to chase you with thousand excuses i invented, in order that you wanted to bath

　　when you see my ignorance on new technologies give me the necessary time and not look at me with your mocking smile

　　你記得小時后我曾編出多少理由,只為了哄你洗澡..當你看到我對新科技的無知,給我一點時間,不要掛著嘲弄的微笑看著我

　　i taught you how to do so many things to eat good, to dress well to confront life

　　我曾教了你多少事情啊.如何好好的吃,好好的穿如何面對你的生命

　　when at some moment i lose the memory or the thread of our conversation let me have the necessary time to remember and if i cannot do it, do not become nervous as the most important thing is not my conversation but surely to be with you and to have you listening to me

　　如果交談中我忽然失憶不知所云,給我一點時間回想

　　如果我還是無能為力,

　　請不要緊張..

　　對我而言重要的不是對話,而是能跟你在一起,和你的傾聽..

　　if ever i do not want to eat, do not force me. i know well when i need to and when not.

　　當我不想吃東西時,不要勉強我. 我清楚知道該什么時候進食

　　when my tired legs do not allow me walk...

　　當我的腿不聽使喚.

　　 give me your hand the same way i did when you gave your first steps.

　　扶我一把. 如同我曾扶著你踏出你人生的第一步.

　　and when someday i say to you that i do not want to live any more that i want to die do not get angry some day you will understand

　　當哪天我告訴你不想再活下去了.請不要生氣. 總有一天你會了解

　　try to understand that my age is not lived but survived.

　　試著了解我已是風燭殘年,來日可數.

　　some day you will discover that, despite my mistakes, i always wanted the best thing for you and that i tried to prepare the way for you..

　　有一天你會發現, 即使我有許多過錯,我總是盡我所能要給你最好的 當我靠近你時不要覺得感傷,生氣或無奈

　　you must not feel sad, angry or impotent for seeing me near you. you must be next to me, try to understand me and to help me as i did it when you started living. help me to walk help me to end my way with love and patience. i will pay you by a smile and by the immense love i have had always for you.

　　你要緊挨著我,如同我當初幫著你展開人生一樣的 了解我,幫我.扶我一把,用愛跟耐心幫我走完人生我將用微笑和我始終不變無邊無際的愛來回報你

　　i love you son

　　我愛你孩子
