当我老了 When I Turn Old

当我老了 When I turn old

当我老了，不再是原來的我。请理解我，对我有一点耐心。
When I turn old, when I am not the original me, please understand me and have patience with me.

当我把菜汤洒到自己的衣服上时，当我忘记怎样系鞋带时，请想一想当初我是如何手把手地教你。
When I drip gravy all over my clothes, when I forget to tie my shoelaces, please remember how I taught you what to do, and how to do many things.

当我一遍又一遍地重復你早己听膩的话语,请耐心地听我说,不要打断我。你小的时候，我不得不重復那个讲过千百遍的故事，直到你进入梦乡。
When I repeatedly tell you the things that you’re tired of hearing, please be patient and listen to me. Please do not interrupt me. When you were young, I told you the same story over and over again until you were sound asleep.

当我需要你帮我洗澡时，请不要责备我。还記得小时候我千方百计哄你洗澡的情形吗？
When I need you to help me bathe, please do not scold me. Do you still remember how when you were young I had to coax you to bath?

当我对新科技和新事物不知所措时，请不要嘲笑我。想一想當初我怎样耐心地回答你的每一个 “为什么”。
When I do not understand new technology, please do not laugh at me or mock me. Please think how I used to be so patient with you to answer your every “Why”.

当我由于双腿疲勞而无法行走时，请伸出你年轻有力的手攙扶我。就像你小时候学習走路时，我扶你那样。
When my both legs are tired and I cannot walk anymore, please stretch out your strong arms to help me, just like when you were a baby learning to walk I held both your hands.

当我突然忘記我们谈话的主题，请给我一些时間让我回想。其实对我來说，谈论什么并不重要， 只要你能在一旁听我说，我就很满足。
When I suddenly forget what subject we are discussing, please give me a little time to recollect. Actually, it does not matter what we are talking about; as long as you are by my side, I am so contended and happy.

当你看着老去的我，请不要悲伤。理解我，支持我，就像你刚开始学习 如何生活时我对你那样。
When you see the old me, please do not be sad. Please understand me and support me, just like how I was with you when you were young and were just learning to face life.

当初我引導你走上人生的路，如今请陪伴我走完最后的路。给我你的爱和耐心，我会报以感激的微笑，这微笑中凝结着我对你无限的爱。
At the beginning, I guided you to the path of life . Now I ask you to keep me company to finish this last leg of my life. Give me your love and patience, I will give you a grateful smile, and crystallized in this smile is my endless love for you.
