Текст и перевод песни 文慧如 - 外婆的大海

外婆的大海

我外婆的故事
也许寡闻但很真实
家境环境驱使7岁女生
的坎坷谁不知

父亲只好把她寄托给了新家室
Hello
寄人篱下察言观色的生活开始了
为了长大能够一家团聚而坚持着
可那只是催眠
家人没再见 只有偏见

挑了燕窝毛 却没有燕窝喝
姐妹睡午觉 她在猪圈忙着
难过的时候 只能到河边发呆
心中憧憬给她平静的大海

感觉微风 想像海浪
听着大海想说的话

这无际的大海里有你和我
有时风平有时浪涛机遇不同
但只要我有初衷
能够在心中闪烁
就一定能够让生命有始有终

其实外公不是她最爱的人
她最爱的人因为
她指腹为婚只好走人
过完大礼再泣不成声
也挽回不了一个女人
对爱情的童真

新婚几年的时候
外公待她不错
他们三年抱两 感觉幸福美满
可是外公渐渐在外风流

她听到了传闻
她冲动对质 外公不想掩饰
激动的时候朝她一个耳光下去
她抱着孩子们只能失声哭泣
人生的辛苦让她忘了活着的任务
人生的大海只剩迷茫跟孤独

感受微风和海浪
此刻她只想 拼命嘶喊

这残酷的大海怎能忘了我
曾经信仰跟相信的不再相同
但现实中的波涛
已经吞噬我的梦
下一份的勇气 到底如何寻获

大海经历再多风浪 会回归泰然
人生经历再多风霜 总会晴朗
生命里的酸甜苦辣
都要勇敢 大口的尝

也算挨到逢甘露的时候
四个孩子都懂事成熟
一年外公工伤瘫痪需要照顾
一个负了她的人

有时还是忍不住对外公
发泄心中的气愤
几年后外公就走了
半生的枕边人
早释怀所有怨恨

今天她八十一把子孙满堂
安祥的面容历经了风霜
今天有的子女不再联系
但更有一些还在身旁

生命的船帆啊
不一帆风顺那又怎样
最起码终点前我们一直乘风破浪
因为人生就是苦中作乐 甜中带涩

不断地悔责 又不断地选择
外婆闭起眼睛
此时大海如此辽阔
心更从容而她说

这无际的大海里有你和我
有时风平有时浪涛机遇不同
但只要我有初衷
能够在心中闪烁
就一定能够让生命有始有终

这无际的大海在我们心中
无论风平或是浪涛结局相同
看懂了这个初衷
也都活过这普通
生生不息也不灭 再重来过

The Elderly Grandma's Sea

My grandma's story
Is uncommon but true
Family circumstances push a 7-year-old girl
Where misfortunes lie hid from many

Her father leaves her to a stepmother
Hello
Living in other's homes; observing, her story begins
Hoping to reunite them as one
Yet she's hypnotized
Family out of reach, only prejudice remains

Picking out swallow feathers, no swallows to see
Sisters nap in comfort, while she labors by the pigpen
When in distress, she finds her solace by the river
Dreaming of the serene sea

Feeling the breeze, envisioning waves crash
Listening to the messages of the sea's splash

In this boundless sea, we find ourselves
Times are calm and times are wild, opportunities differ
But as long as I remember my intention
That flickers in my core
I will fulfill my purpose, forevermore

Truthfully, her grandfather isn't her greatest love
Her beloved, due to fate
Was promised to another, and he had to leave her
After their engagement, she cries uncontrollably
But she can't reclaim a woman's
Naïve ideas of love

During the first few years of marriage
Her grandfather treated her well
Three children in three years, happiness and fulfillment
But gradually, her grandfather becomes a philanderer

Whispers reach her ears
She confronts him out of passion and he doesn't hide his affair
In a fit of rage, he slaps her in the face
She holds her children close, only able to weep silently
Life's hardships make her forget her purpose
The vast sea of life leaves her lost and alone

Embracing the sea breeze and the waves' caress
She desperately screams out her distress

How can the sea, so cruel, forget me?
Beliefs and faith I once held are now lost at sea
The fierce waves of reality
Have consumed my dreams
How do I recover, where do I find my next source of hope?

Seas, despite their storms and winds, ultimately find serenity
Lives, despite their hardships, always find clarity
Life's bittersweet flavors
Must be bravely tasted

Finally, the sweet dew of fortune falls upon her
Four children, now grown and mature
One year, her grandfather, injured and paralyzed, needs care
The man who wronged her

Sometimes, she can't resist lashing out at him
Releasing her pent-up anger
Years later, her grandfather passes
Her companion of half a lifetime
All resentment long since forgotten

Today, she's eighty-one, surrounded by her loved ones
Her serene face etched with time
Today, some children have lost touch
But some remain close by her side

The sails of life
Will not always catch the wind, but what of it?
At least until the end, we've sailed bravely against the storm
For life is a bittersweet symphony

Constantly regretting, constantly choosing
Grandma closes her eyes
The sea is vast and wide
Her heart composed, she shares her wisdom

In this boundless sea, we find ourselves
Times are calm and times are wild, opportunities differ
But as long as I remember my intention
That flickers in my core
I will fulfill my purpose, forevermore

In our hearts, the sea is boundless
Through calm and storm, the ending is the same
Understanding this intention
We all live our ordinary lives
Forever flowing, never ceasing, we begin anew
