【诗歌】My Mother Called my Name Standing by

此诗为诗人杨晓华的力作 My Mother Called my Name Standing by the Yellow River Yang Xiaohua My mother called my name standing by the Yellow River At that moment I had walked far away She called me from the high yellow cliff She was seeing me off But I clearly heard she was calling me back Her sound was vaguer [veɪɡə] and vaguer At last it was immersed in the roaring sound of the torrents The impetuous[ɪmˈpetʃʊəs] yellow river had run for thousands of years How could it be moved by my mother? But in my heart, the echo of calling was miraculously [mɪˈrækjʊləslɪ] Deeper and deeper, louder and louder At last I understood she was seeing me off, While she was calling me back She told me when I was happy, I could go further When I was ever hurt, I could be back home My mother was calling to tell me The door of my hometown was forever open for me Her son never need worry about What would happen behind him Pride Yellow river Why are you called great Mother River? Isn’t it because there are thousands of mothers calling their sons by your side? Aren’t you listening to my mother’s calling? You are great in my heart just because my mother is always calling me by your side How can you ignore a mother’s calling for her son? My mother has been calling me by the high yellow cliff She is seeing me off, while she is calling me back.
