I know you are thinking, sitting all by yourself, that your boy must be dead by this time.
But I come to you all stained with blood, and say,
“Mother, the fight is over now.”
您蹲在轎子裏,反複不斷地禱告著神的名字。
轎夫們嚇得瑟瑟發抖,在荊棘叢中躲藏起來。
我向您喊著:“不要害怕,媽媽,有我在。”
他們手執長棒,頭發淩亂,越來越近了。
我大喊:“小心些!你們這些壞蛋!再往前一步,你們就等死吧。”
他們又發出可怕的號叫,並衝上前來。
您緊握住我的手,說:
“乖孩子,看在上天的份兒上,離他們遠些。”
我說:“媽媽,看我的。”
於是我策馬飛奔,
劍和盾互相撞擊,鏗鏘作響。
這場戰鬥是多麽激烈,媽媽,如果您從轎子裏看得見,您一定會打冷戰的。
他們中有許多人逃走了,
大多數被砍成了碎片。
我知道您正獨自坐在那裏,心想,您的孩子此時肯定死了。
然而我跑到您的身旁,滿身是血,說:“媽媽,戰爭已經結束了。”
You come out and kiss me, pressing me to your heart, and you say to yourself,
“I don’t know what I should do if I hadn’t my boy to escort me.”
A thousand useless things happen day after day, and why couldn't such a thing come true by chance?
It would be like a story in a book.
My brother would say, “Is it possible? I always thought he was so delicate!”
Our village people would all say in amazement, “Was it not lucky that the boy was with his mother?”
您從轎子裏走出來,吻著我,把我摟入您的懷中,自言自語地說:
“如果沒有我的孩子保護著我,我真不知如何是好。”
日複一日,上千件無聊的事發生著,為什麽這種事就不能偶爾實現呢?
