獲 贈
你取之于我,
是我得到的最好的禮物,
當(dāng)你知道我因施與你
而快樂。
你明白,我的給予不是
讓你欠我的人情,
而是因?yàn)槲蚁牖畛?/span>
對你的愛。
欣然的接受,
或許是最佳的賞賜。
我無法將二者
分開。
當(dāng)你施與我,
我給你我的接納。
當(dāng)你取之于我,
我感激你的賜予。

英文
Given To
I never feel more given to
than when you take from me-
when you understand the joy I feel
giving to you.
And you know my giving isn't done
to put you in my debt,
but because I want to live the love
I feel for you.
To receive with grace
may be the greatest giving.
There's no way I can separate
the two.
When you give to me,
I give you my receiving.
When you take from me, I feel so
given to.
-'Given To' (1978) by Ruth Bebermeyer
from the album Given To.
育兒,育己,在愛里!
