Each family has a song hard to play,
And everyone has some secret to say,
At an annual Dragon Boat Festival,
Always would the mother's words ocurr in mind---


Have a hurry, my little Xing'an:
An egg and the bread in front of the stove,
Take them for school lunch,
Your brothers and sisters know it not---


Oh, Xing'an:
The fifth in lunar may，
Your birthday is just today ...







( idea: Mom was afraid of the festival, birthday... )

中 诗《 端 午 - 那 年 》英 译《 Dragon Boat Festival That Year 》




    端 午 - 那 年
                       —— 原 作 / 李世纯 - 中国 长春 - 2021.  端午节
  


家家呀
家家都有一曲难，
人人啊
人人都有隐衷言；
一年一度端午节，
娘啊——老娘声音回耳边：

兴安、兴安，快——兴安：
一馍一蛋在灶前，
带上学校晌午饭，
哥哥姐姐不知道，
咳——兴安：
五月初五——你的生日是今天 ... ...





（立 意：老妈当年怕过节，过生日 ... ...）

Each family has a song hard to play,
And everyone has some secret to say,
At an annual Dragon Boat Festival,
Always would the mother's words ocurr in mind---

Have a hurry, my little Xing'an:
Take them for lunch at school
An egg and the bread in front of the stove,
Your brothers and sisters know it not,

O Xing'an:
Today's the fifth of the lunar May,
And it's just today
That's your birthday.





( Conception: Mom was afraid of days at festival and birthday those years ... )
