28. 一欉小花蕊 A Little Flower (bilingual children's poem)

7. 一欉小花蕊

驚惶的小花蕊       

佇狂風暴雨的凌治中走投無路  

伊一心一意想欲轉去厝走避

但是大滴大滴的雨水阻擋伊的路

風大港大港共伊刁工掠牢咧

害伊毋知欲按怎脫離災厄

伊像新婦仔浸佇塗跤予人蹧蹋

 

好佳哉! 阿母隔工綴日頭來看伊

伊趕緊投入阿母的攬抱裡      

撒奶揉呀揉         

揉過昨昏的驚惶      

揉過昨昏的委曲       

伊閣再恢復以前的嬌軟佮美麗

 

A Little Flower

A little frightened flower

Has been struggling against a violent storm

She wants to go home

But the rain hides the way home

And the wind blows her back

She is so scared that she is crying her eyes out

She looks like a poor new student who is insulted by others

 

Fortunately, Mother draws out the early sun to visit her

She runs in a great hurry to throw herself in mother’s arms

Wanting to be spoiled and comforted

After getting away from yesterday’s storm 

And warming herself in her mother’s love

She become beautiful again
