中英文诗歌：父亲不是爸爸

我们一般不会称呼自己的父亲为父亲，多种的称呼。如“爸爸”“dad”等才是我们的日常称呼。同一种身份，但是父亲不是爸爸。下面，我们来欣赏一首诗歌。

A father and a dad are not the same:

父亲和爸爸有着不同的含义

One can be a dad and not a father,

一个人可能是爸爸但不是父亲

Or one can be a father and not bother

或者他可能是父亲不能去打扰

To earn through love the more endearing name.

因为爱，会赋予“父亲”这个词更多含义。

Some find fatherhood a bit too tame,

有人发现父子关系太平淡

Leaving all the details to the mother,

他把很多细节都抛给了母亲

Or dumping the sweet burden on another

或者他把这甜蜜的负担抛给别人

Man with just a passing twinge of shame.

而他自己只会感到一时的羞愧

You have been our dad so many years

你已经成为我们的爸爸好多年了

That you’ve become the landscape that is home,

那你也成为一个风景那就是家

The mountain that we look to from afar.

你是我们远远观望的`一座大山

No matter where we go we’re not alone,

不管我们去哪里我们都不会孤单

For you remain within to still our fears

因为你永远在我们心中安慰我们的畏惧

And be the word that tells us who we are.

告诉我们自己是谁

最后，送给大家一首Keith Urban的歌——“Song for Dad”。

Song For Dad Keith Urban英语歌词：

Lately I've been noticing

I say the same things he used to say

And I even find myself acting the very same way

I tap my fingers on the table

To the rhythm in my soul

And I jingle the car keys

When I'm ready to go

When I look in the mirror

He's right there in my eyes

Starin' back at me and I realize

The older I get

The more I can see

How much he loved my mother and my brother and me

And he did the best that he could

And I only hope when I have my own family

That everyday I see

A little more of my father in me

There were times I thought he was bein'

Just a little bit hard on me

But now I understand he was makin' me

Become the man he knew that I could be

In everything he ever did

He always did with love

And I'm proud today to say I'm his son

When somebody says I hope I get to meet your dad

I just smile and say you already have

He's in my eyes

My heart, my soul

My hands, my pride

And when I feel alone

And I think I can't go on

I hear him sayin' "Son you'll be alright"

Everything's gonna be alright"

Yes it is

That he loved my mother and my brother and me

Oh I hope I see

I hope everyday I see

I hope everyday I see in me

In me
