Mama (1) 妈妈
(一)
1940's 四十年代
“Mama”
does not need a name. For a child, mama is mama,
the only mama. Not one to confuse, and no one can replace.
In peaceful years, mama is the paradise; in turbulent times, mama
is the safety harbor.
“Mama” has her own name, of course.
She has trodden all along--every foot step of it. She knows
all the toil and hardships of any life. She clings on to
any hope that life can ever have.

“妈妈”
可以不必有名字,因为在孩子的心目中,妈妈就是妈妈,只有一个,不会混淆,无可替代。在平安的日子里,妈妈是乐园;在动荡的岁月里,妈妈是安全港。
“妈妈” 当然有她的名字,有她的时代,有她走过来的路--一步步。人间有多大苦难,她都知道。人间有多少希望,她也都知道。
