感恩的心故事

有一个天生失语的小女孩，爸爸在她很小的时候就去世了。她和妈妈相依为命。妈妈每天很早出去工作，很晚才回来。每到日落时分，小女孩就开始站在家门口，充满期待地望着门前的那条路，等妈妈回家。妈妈回来的时候是她一天中最快乐的时刻，因为妈妈每天都要给她带一块年糕回家。在她们贫穷的家里，一块小小的年糕都是无上的美味了啊。

An innate mute little girl poorly lived with her mother. Her father died when she was an infant. Her mother went to work very early everyday and was only able to return at midnight. Each day, when the sun shed its last setting rays on their hut, she would be spotted waiting at the door, much desired, for her mother. The moment she saw her mother’s coming back was the most exciting experience for her on each single day, because Mom always brought with her a piece of rice cake. To the needy family, even a small bite of the rice cake would satisfy them.

有一天，下着很大的雨，已经过了晚饭时间了，妈妈却还没有回来。小女孩站在家门口望啊望啊，总也等不到妈妈的身影。天，越来越黑，雨，越下越大，小女孩决定顺着妈妈每天回来的路自己去找妈妈。她走啊走啊，走了很远，终于在路边看见了倒在地上的妈妈。她使劲摇着妈妈的身体，妈妈却没有回答她。她以为妈妈太累，睡着了。就把妈妈的头枕在自己的腿上，想让妈妈睡得舒服一点。但是这时她发现，妈妈的眼睛没有闭上！小女孩突然明白：妈妈可能已经死了！她感到恐惧，拉过妈妈的手使劲摇晃，却发现妈妈的手里还紧紧地拽着一块年糕……她拼命地哭着，却发不出一点声音……

It was a day of thunder and heavy rain. She waited until suppertime, but she still couldn’t even see the slightest hope of her mother’s coming back. The sky turned blacker and the rain poured even harder. She finally determined to look for her mother on her own. She walked and kept walking. It was such a long way before she caught the sight of her mother lying on the road. With the though that her mother was too tire and fell asleep, her shaking her mother was responded by nothing. She thought it would make her mother more comfortable if mother’s head leaning on her thigh, when she found her mother’s eyes were not closed. It suddenly occurred to her that her mother was dead. Fear drained her braveness that she could not even utter a sound though she was crying. She shook her mother’s hand fiercely as if she was not dead. Only did she see that a piece of rice cake be hold tightly in mother’s palm.

雨一直在下，小女孩也不知哭了多久。她知道妈妈再也不会醒来，现在就只剩下她自己。妈妈的眼睛为什么不闭上呢？她是因为不放心她吗？她突然明白了自己该怎样做。于是擦干眼泪，决定用自己的语言来告诉妈妈她一定会好好地活着，让妈妈放心地走……

It kept raining and the little girl had no awareness of how long she had been crying. What she was certain was that Mom had gone and she was herself, alone. But why did mother not close her eyes? “Is she worry about me?” she thought. The light came to her all in a while that she was determined what should she do. She dried her tears, and decided to comfort her mother by her own language.

小女孩就在雨中一遍一遍用手语做着这首《感恩的心》，泪水和雨水混在一起，从她小小的却写满坚强的脸上滑过…… “感恩的心，感谢有你，伴我一生，让我有勇气做我自己……感恩的心，感谢命运，花开花落，我一样会珍惜……”她就这样站在雨中不停歇地做着，一直到妈妈的眼睛终于闭上……

Then the little girl repeated this song- Indebted heart- by her sign language again and again. Tears mixed with rain drops slid silently from her face which showed her determination---“Heart of feel grateful the with gratitude has you, Companion I make me courageous to make myself from cradle to the grave”… “The heart of feel grateful thank destiny, The flower blooms to fall me similar will cherish”. She stood in the rain and kept “singing” only until her mother’s eyes closed.
