永遠愛你
LOVE YOU FOREVER
孕育你，數月忍受膽汁俱下的嘔吐之苦；
爲了你的降臨，忍受人間最慘烈的裂骨之痛；
你的一個小翻身，她都會醒來呵護，數年沒睡過一晚安穩覺；
你的第一次抬頭、第一次爬行、坐起、站立、學步，怎樣拿筷子…點滴成長都滴著她的心血…
你總認爲你現在是最難的，其實，世上最難的職業，叫做媽媽。

A mother held her new baby and very slowly rocked him
back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. And while she held him, she
sang:
I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living
my baby you'll be.
The baby grew. He grew and he grew and he grew. He grew
until he was two years old, and he ran all around the house. He pulled all the
books off the shelves. He pulled all the food out of the refrigerator and he
took his mother's watch and flushed it down the toilet. Sometimes his mother
would say, "this kid is driving me CRAZY!"
But at night time, when that two-year-old was quiet,
she opened the door to his room, crawled across the floor, looked up over the
side of his bed; and if he was really asleep she picked him up and rocked him
back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. While she rocked him she sang:
I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living
my baby you'll be.
The little boy grew. He grew and he grew and he grew.
He grew until he was nine years old. And he never wanted to come in for dinner,
he never wanted to take a bath, and when grandma visited he always said bad
words. Sometimes his mother wanted to sell him to the zoo!
But at night time, when he was asleep, the mother
quietly opened the door to his room, crawled across the floor and looked up
over the side of the bed. If he was really asleep, she picked up that nine-year-old
boy and rocked him back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. And while
she rocked him she sang:
I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living
my baby you'll be.
The boy grew. He grew and he grew and he grew. He grew
until he was a teenager. He had strange friends and he wore strange clothes and
he listened to strange music. Sometimes the mother felt like she was in a zoo!
But at night time, when that teenager was asleep, the
mother opened the door to his room, crawled across the floor and looked up over
the side of the bed. If he was really asleep she picked up that great big boy
and rocked him back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. While she rocked
him she sang:
I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living
my baby you'll be.
That teenager grew. He grew and he grew and he grew. He
grew until he was a grown-up man. He left home and got a house across town. But
sometimes on dark nights the mother got into her car and drove across town. If all the lights in her son's house were
out, she opened his bedroom window, crawled across the floor, and looked up
over the side of his bed. If that great big man was really asleep she picked
him up and rocked him back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. And while
she rocked him she sang:
I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living
my baby you'll be.
Well, that mother, she got older. She got older and
older and older. One day she called up her son and said, "You'd better
come see me because I'm very old and sick." So her son came to see her.
When he came in the door she tried to sing the song. She sang:
I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always...
But she couldn't finish because she was too old and
sick. The son went to his mother. He picked her up and rocked her back and
forth, back and forth, back and forth. And he sang this song:
I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living
my Mommy you'll be.
When the son came home that night, he stood for a long
time at the top of the stairs. Then he went into the room where his very new
baby daughter was sleeping. He picked her up in his arms and very slowly rocked
her back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. And while he rocked her he
sang:
I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living
my baby you'll be.
