A Life of Joy and Wonder
Có bao giờ bố mẹ tự hỏi không biết thế giới qua đôi mắt trẻ sẽ như thế nào không? THÉ xin gửi đến bố mẹ câu trả lời thông qua một bài thơ có tựa đề:
Thế Giới Đầy Niềm Vui Và Sự Háo Hức Qua Đôi Mắt Của Con
A look at life through a child’s eyes
Is pure and honest; without disguise
A life of joy and wonder and grace
And here we are: running in place
The miracle of a rainbow, the beauty of a blade of grass
Finding untold treasure where others see only trash
Listen. Here the thrum of wind on golden strings
The bells sounding clear and pure in the trees they sing
A look at life through a child’s eyes
Is pure and honest; without disguise
A life of joy and wonder and grace
And here we are: running in place
Feel the complex dance around you come alive as you are filled
With a racing spirit and feet that won’t be stilled
A song bursts forth just like the morning sun
And overflows and covers you until you and it are one
A look at life through a child’s eyes
Is pure and honest; without disguise
A life of joy and wonder and grace
And here we are: running in place
We lose sight of what’s important as we fight to survive
But if we stop to look through a child’s eyes we learn to truly thrive
A look at life through a child’s eyes
Is pure and honest; without disguise
A life of joy and wonder and grace
But here we are: running in place
A life of joy and wonder greets the sun in morning sky
A life of joy and wonder will run free and learn to fly
A life of joy and wonder finds gladness in the rain
A life of joy and wonder finds healing amidst the pain
A look at life through a child’s eyes
Is pure and honest; without disguise
A life of joy and wonder and grace
But here we are running in place
A look at life through a child’s eyes
Is pure and honest; without disguise
A child’s eyes are bright and strong; they don’t dull or dim
You might hear their quiet song if you stop and listen
There is a life of joy and wonder and grace
But here we are running in place
A life of joy and wonder takes patience, love, and care
It takes a long time, many years till we get there
But a life of joy and wonder is a precious thing I’m told…
Because a life of joy and wonder far surpasses the value of gold!
Và như vậy đấy, niềm vui của các con đến từ khoảnh khắc cầu vồng xuất hiện sau cơn mưa, từ vẻ đẹp của những ngọn cỏ dại bên vệ đường, từ bầu trời đầy nắng của 1 ngày mùa hạ hay tiếng xào xạc của những chiếc lá chạm nhau mỗi khi có cơn gió nhẹ len vào hay những giọt mưa thi nhau rả rích trên sân. Và chúng ta thương con nhiều như cách con yêu cuộc đời này vậy!
