依然清晰 - In memory of Father-in-law

依然清晰的 

是你的笑貌音容 

晨光夕照里 

却已听不见你亲切的问候

一抔黄土 

隔绝了多少喜乐忧愁

在那个世界里 

可有你喜欢的从容和自由?

你的温暖记忆 —— 

是去车站的长路，你曾陪我一起走 

是匆忙上班前的三明治，你曾为我亲手做 

更是每一刻平淡舒服的相处，被岁月酿成了醇酒

你是儿辈心中 

永远的父亲

你，是倦鸟归来之时

那片永不消失的沙洲!

Still Clear in My Mind

By Yu Cheng

Still clear in my mind 

Are your voice and your smile; 

Yet in the glow of dawn and dusk, 

I can no longer hear 

Your gentle, warm greetings.

A mound of yellow earth 

Seals away all joys and sorrows; 

In that world beyond, 

Have you found the serenity and freedom 

That you always loved?

The warm memories of you — 

Are the long roads to the station, where you once walked with me; 

Is the morning-rush sandwich, that you once made for me; 

And every moment of simple, cozy company, 

Brewed by the years into a vintage wine.

In the hearts of your children, 

You are the Father, forever; 

You are the isle that never vanishes, 

When the weary birds 

Return to their home.
