Grandfather's Clock
|
เพลงเพราะๆ กะทำนองคุ้นหูตอนเด็กๆ ได้ฟังเพลงแย้ว คิดถึงคุงปู่เลยอ่ะ พอดีผมม่ายค่อยสนิทกะคุงปู่เลย
พูดง่ายๆ คือไม่ค่อยใกล้ชิดกะญาติๆ ฝ่ายพ่อ .. ตอนเดะๆ ไปเยี่ยมแกบ้าง นานๆ จะไปสักที - -" พอเริ่มๆ โตก็ไม่ค่อยได้ไปแระคับ
My grandfather's clock was too large for the shelf, So it stood ninety years on the floor. It was taller by half than the old man himself, Though it weighed not a pennyweight more. It was bought on the morn of the day that he was born, And was always his treasure and pride; But it stopped, short, never to go again When the old man died.
Ninety years without slumbering, tick, tock, tick, tock, His life seconds numbering, tick, tock, tick, tock, It stopped, short, never to go again, when the old man died.
In watching its pendulum swing to and fro, Many hours had he spent while a boy; And in childhood and manhood the clock seemed to know And to share both his grief and his joy. For it struck twenty-four when he entered at the door With a blooming and beautiful bride. But it stopped, short, never to go again When the old man died.
My grandfather said that of those he could hire, Not a servant so faithful he found; For it wasted no time, and had but one desire: At the close of each week to be wound. And it kept in its place, not a frown upon its face, And its hands never hung by its side. But it stopped, short, never to go again When the old man died.
It rang in alarm in the dead of the night, An alarm that for years had been dumb. And we knew that his spirit was plumbing its flight, That his hour of departure had come. Still the clock kept the time, with a soft and muffled chime, As we silently stood by his side But it stopped, short, never to go again When the old man died.
จนตอนนี้ คุงปู่เสียได้เจ็ดปีแย้วมั้ง .. ไม่รู้ถ้าคุงปู่ยังอยู่ จะยังจำเราได้มั้ยหว่า ไอ้ตัวเตี้ยๆ ซนๆ ที่ชอบรื้อของบ้านปู่เละเทะ ก๊ากๆๆ
ขอโทดที่ช่วงหลังๆ ไม่ค่อยได้ไปเยี่ยม พ่อคิดถึงปู่มากๆ และพ่อก็เปงเดะดีคับ ไม่ต้องเปงห่วง เอิ๊กๆ
ป่านนี้ปู่ไปอยู่กะย่าแล้วมั้ง .. ขอให้มีฟามสุขนะฮะ สักวันเราคงได้เจอกานอีกน๊าคับบ ..
