父亲节，让我们聆听

     黑人歌手Luther Vandross的Dance With My Father是其倾情制作的一首同名主打歌曲。
这首歌曲是Luther Vandross自己真实的故事。一个7岁孩子的记忆，一点点忧伤，更多的却是那些遥远而温暖的细节和情绪。这周日即是父亲节，让我们和父亲一道在歌曲的温暖中沉醉，或者独自在歌曲的哀思中想念。
 

Back when I was a child
Before life removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high
And dance with my mother and me and then
小时候
天真懵懂
父亲会把我高高举起
跟我和母亲一起翩翩起舞，然后
 
Spin me around till I fell asleep
Then up the stairs he would carry me
And I knew for sure
I was loved
抱着我转圈，直到我入睡
父亲会把我抱上楼
我知道
父亲深深爱着我
 
If I could get another chance
Another walk, another dance with him
I'd play a song that would never, ever end
How I'd love, love, love to dance with my father again
如果我还有一次机会
跟父亲散步，与父亲共舞
我会放一首永远不会结束的曲子
我是多么想再跟父亲跳一次舞
 
Ooh, ooh
喔，喔
 
When I and my mother would disagree
To get my way I would run from her to him
He'd make me laugh just to comfort me, yeah, yeah
Then finally make me do just what my mama said
当我不想听母亲话的时候
我就会跑到父亲跟前
他会想办法让我笑起来，安慰我
但是最后让我照母亲的话去做
 
Later that night when I was asleep
He left a dollar under my sheet
Never dreamed that he
Would be gone from me
那一晚在我睡觉的时候
他在我的床单下放了一块钱
从来没有想过
父亲会离开我
 
If I could steal one final glance
One final step, one final dance with him
I'd play a song that would never, ever end
Cause I'd love, love, love to dance with my father again
如果我能再看父亲一眼
再迈出一步舞步，再跟父亲跳最后一支舞
我会放一首永远不会结束的曲子
因为我是多么想再跟父亲跳一次舞
 
Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
And I'd hear her, mama crying for him
I pray for her even more than me
I pray for her even more than me
有时候我会在母亲的门外
听见她思念父亲的哭声
