英语美文：只是个父亲 Only a Dad
英语课
Only a dad with a tired face,
Coming home from the daily race,
Bringing little of gold or fame,
To show how well he has played the game,
But glad in his heart that his own rejoice
To see him come and to hear his voice.
只是个面带倦容的父亲，
结束每日的奔忙后回到家中，
没有带回多少金钱与名利
来显摆自己的出色表现，
但家人看见他回到家中，听到他的声音
那种喜悦让他喜上心头。
Only a dad with a 1)brood of four,
One of ten million men or more.
2)Plodding along in the daily strife,
Bearing the whips and the scorns of life,
With never a whimper of pain or hate,
For the sake of those who at home await.
只是个养活一家四口的父亲，
无数男人中的一员。
在每日的竞争中辛勤劳作，
忍受着生活的鞭挞与嘲笑，
却从不怨天尤人，心怀怨恨，
只为那些在家中守候的亲人。
Only a dad, neither rich nor proud,
Merely one of the surging crowd.
3)Toiling, striving from day to day,
Facing whatever may come his way,
Silent, whenever the harsh condemn,
And bearing it all for the love of them.
只是个父亲，既不富裕也不高傲，
不过是芸芸众生中的一员，
日复一日地奋斗，不辞劳苦，
直面任何可能阻挡他前进的障碍，
无论何时，默默忍受斥责，
全因对家人的爱。
Only a dad but he gives his all
To smooth the way for his children small,
Doing, with courage stern and grim,
The deeds that his father did for him.
This is the line that for him I pen:
Only a dad, but the best of men.
只是个父亲，却倾其所有
为年幼的孩子铺平道路，
满怀坚定的勇气做着
他父亲曾为他所做的一切。
这是我为他写下的一行颂诗：
只是个父亲，却是最棒的男人。
Coming home from the daily race,
Bringing little of gold or fame,
To show how well he has played the game,
But glad in his heart that his own rejoice
To see him come and to hear his voice.

只是个父亲，却是最棒的男人。
“Only a Dad”（《只是个父亲》）是诗人为其父亲写下的一首颂诗，朴实无华的诗句勾勒出一个隐忍、踏实苦干、默默守护家人的父亲。父爱如一支含蓄的摇篮曲，子女可以听着而酣睡；父爱又如叮咚流淌的泉水，不张扬，不停歇，甘醇可口，沁人心脾。想起阿尔及利亚歌手Idir创作的土著民谣“A Vava Inouva”（《我的小父亲》），父亲忠厚的形象在Idir那令人动容的演唱中流露无遗，每听一回，都会触及内心深处最柔软的地方。六月，在属于父亲的节日里，把这首颂诗送给所有热爱生活、关爱家庭的父亲们—你们，其实就是孩子心中的“英雄”！
