一 : Daily growing -Altan

Found a song, the first time listening to it, the lyrics almost made my tears dropping down. Here is the lyrics.

Daily growing 日夜成长
The trees they grow high, the leaves they do grow green, 树会长高,叶子会变绿
Many is the time my true love I've seen, 多少次，我曾注视着我的真爱
Many an hour I have watched him all alone, 几多时，我独自对他长久凝视，
He's young but he's daily growing. 他还小，但他正在长大

Father, dear father, you've done me great wrong, 爸爸, 亲爱的爸爸, 你对你的女儿犯下一个巨大的错误
You have married me to a boy who is too young, 你把我嫁给了一个没有成年的男孩
I am twice twelve and he is but fourteen, 我已经二十四岁，他却只有十四岁
He's young but he's daily growing. 他还小，但他正在长大

Daughter, dear daughter, I've done you no wrong, 女儿, 亲爱的女儿,我给你的安排并没有错
I have married you to a great lord's son, 我把你嫁给贵族的儿子
He will be a man for you when I am dead and gone, 一旦我老去，他将是你依靠的男人
He's young but he's daily growing 他还小, 但他正在长大

Father, dear father, if you see fit, 爸爸, 亲爱的爸爸, 如果你认为合适
We'll send him to college for another year yet, 送他再去读一年大学吧
I'll tie a blue ribbon all around his head, 我要用蓝绸带缠上他的头
To let the maidens know that he is married. 告诉年轻的女孩他已经结婚

One day I was looking over my father's castle wall, 曾经有一天, 我望着父亲城堡的墙外
I spied all the boys playing with a ball, 我看到一群男孩在玩球
And my own true love was the flower of them all, 我的爱是所有人中最可爱的
He's young but he's daily growing. 他还小, 但他正在长大

And so early in the morning at the dawning of the day, 那天早上很早，刚刚破晓
They went into a hayfield to have some sport and play, 他们冲入草场锻炼游戏
And what they did there she never would declare, 他们做了什么，她闭口不提
But she never more complained of his growing. 但她从此不再抱怨他的年轻

At the age of fourteen he was a married man, 十四岁，他成了一个已婚男人
At the age of fifteen the father of my son, 十五岁, 他成了我儿子的父亲
At the age of sixteen his grave it was green, 十六岁，他的墓地前绿草如茵
And death had put an end to his growing. 死亡结束了他的成长
I'll buy my love some flannel, I'll make my love a shroud, 我要买来法兰绒，我要为我的爱做寿衣
With every stitch I put in it, the tears they will pour down, 每缝一针，泪落如雨
With every stitch I put in it, how the tears they will flow, 每逢一针，难禁泪落
Cruel fate has put an end to his growing. 残酷的命运终结了他的成长
