[閒聊] A POEM TO MY VEGAN* DAUGHTER
fb上看到一個媽媽分享一首詩給他純素女兒
看的很好,不過我希望能翻譯成中文的放在fb
分享給我身邊許多當媽媽的朋友看(已到大叔年紀)
有英文翻譯背景的素版友可以幫我翻譯嗎?
當然翻完我會詢問原作是否肯讓我放中文翻譯在fb上(尊重)
謝禮是來花蓮我可以請您吃好吃的常春藤吃到飽素食乙次
完整文章如下:
A POEM TO MY VEGAN* DAUGHTER (by Heather Leughmyer)
You'll never watch an elephant standing on her head,
You will see amazing acrobats and painted clowns instead.
You'll never color Easter eggs or eat a "Happy" Meal,
Instead you'll give pigs belly rubs; you'll know chickens
dream and feel.
The clamor from the ice cream truck won't be music to your ears,
You will know your Soy Delicious caused no suffering or tears.
You may hear a gentle gobble as you softly stroke a turkey,
And give thanks that she's alive as you're eating your Tofurky.
While other kids buy leather shoes and eat at Chuck E. Cheese,
You'll be kissing cows and feeding goats and saying "soy please!"
Being different can be hard I know. This world is often cruel,
Maybe you'll be laughed at by the other kids at school.
But compassion is a vital gift that too few share with others,
And your heart will not be filled with guilt the way it plagues
your mother's.
So don't ever be embarrassed or ashamed because you care,
You'll be uniquely beautiful with an empathy that's rare.
And when you see a rescued lamb and touch his thick warm fleece,
You'll feel no sadness or remorse; you can look at him in peace.
What took so long for me to learn, I'll start teaching you from birth,
And your footprint will be much tinier on this fragile earth.
