苦瓜汤

这世上的美味一定是汤

这好喝的汤一定是妈妈做的

The delicacy in the world must be soup

The delicious soup must be made by Mother

岁月流转光阴如水

妈妈的味道只有梦里追寻了

Time flows like water

Mom’s taste can only be pursued in a dream

终于找到了

你第一次熬制的汤

I finally found

The soup you made for the first time

分明就是浓香忘情水

忘了曾经的苦记住今日

这苦瓜排骨汤里的芬芳

That was clearly fragrant and love-forgetting water

Forgetting the past pain and remember today’s

Fragrance of this bitter gourd soup with pork ribs

*

那是一个夏天

你带着清爽迎接我

迎接工地上的一身疲惫

It was a summer

When you greeted me with freshness

Greeting me tired from working on the construction site

已不记得自己洗过手没有

自始至终只记得你

一副心满意足的样子

I don’t remember if I washed my hands

I only remember you all the time

Who was of an air of contentment

*

那是我第一次喝苦瓜汤

第一次觉得生活的苦喝了好

第一次觉得有人怜惜我的苦

It was the first time I had bitter gourd soup

For the first time I felt it good to drink the bitterness of life

For the first time I felt someone took pity on my suffering

第一次直接把苦喝成了甘甜

第一次觉得我们不在一起

那是人生中多么可惜的事

For the first time bitterness had directly turned into sweetness

For the first time I thought it a pity in my life

That we couldn’t be together

*

我找回了妈妈的味道

从此我可以为你写诗

I got back Mom's taste

I could write poems for you from then on
