我打开盒子时,他们笑了,叫道“拉一曲,拉一曲。”我不情愿地背上琴带,拉了几只简单的曲子。真没想到,我拉起来还是那么娴熟。很快,孩子们围成圈跳起来,咯咯地笑个不停。甚至连我妻子特丽也笑了,打着拍子。看着他们纵情欢笑,我感到惊异。
My father's words came back to me: "Someday you'll have the chance I never had, Then you'll understand." I finally knew what it meant to work hard and sacrifice for others. Dad had been right all along: the most precious gift is to touch the hearts of those you love. Later I phoned Dad to let him know that, at long last, I understood. Fumbling for the right words, I thanked him for the legacy it took almost 30 years to discover. "You're welcome," he said, his voice choked with emotion.
我的耳边回响起父亲说过的话:“有一天你会有我从未有过的机会,那时你会明白的。”我终于明白,去努力,去为别人作出牺牲意味着什么。爸爸始终是对的:最珍贵的礼物莫过于打动你所爱的人的心。后来,我给爸爸去电话,告诉他我终于懂了。我笨嘴拙舌地找寻合适的词语,为他给我的宝贵财富表示感谢,这财富我花了差不多三十年才发现。“不用谢,”他激动得说不出话来。
Dad never learned to coax sweet sounds from his violin. Yet he was wrong to think he would never play for his family. On that wonderful evening, as my wife and children laughed and danced, they heard my accordion. But it was my father's music.
