乡愁

作者：余光中

原文：

(中文)

小时候 ，

乡愁是一枚小小的邮票 ，

我在这头 ，

母亲在那头。

长大后 ，

乡愁是一张窄窄的船票 ，

我在这头 ，

新娘在那头 。

后来啊，

乡愁是一方矮矮的坟墓 ，

我在外头，

母亲在里头 。

而现在 ，

乡愁是一湾浅浅的海峡 ，

我在这头 ，

大陆在那头。[2]

(英文)

When I was young,

my homesickness was a small stamp,

I was here,

my mother was there.

After growing up,

my homesickness was a narrow ticket,

I was here,

my bride was there.

Later,

my homesickness was a little tomb,

I was outside,

my mother was inside.

And now,

my homesickness is a shallow strait,

I am here,

the mainland is there.
