游子吟
孟郊
慈母手中线,
游子身上衣。
临行密密缝,
意恐迟迟归。
谁言寸草心,
报得三春晖。
Song Of A Traveling Son
By Meng Jiao
Needle and thread in the hands of a dear mama
Makes clothes for her boy who is leaving.
Carefully she sews and thoroughly she mends,
Be afraid that her son will delay for home.
Even daylily also have love,
But how can they repay sun for three spring months of light?
