給夏學曼 A Spring Blessing

春天一新 May you be blessed, dear sister Vicky Hsuehman

天上之恩 May the Healer and Keeper of all Israel

感謝每日 Watch over you and protect you from all harm

雖然坎坷 Giving you a spirit of gratitude

但也有美 For the beauty in spite of the sufferings of self and family anf friends

但願上天 May heaven heal you completely and speedily

賜福妹妹 beloved dear sister whose sweet voice has saved my life so many, many times, as an angel

使得神經 that your nerve cells

細胞恢復 should restore completely

癌症細胞 but the cancer cells

則已停步 completely cease to grow

允許妹妹 that spring might mean a new leaf not for Taiwan alone, but for you too

陪伴兒子 to share spring with your son, this year and every for many to come

一起好好 with all goodness

快樂活著 in joy together, the Taiwanese way, the Chinese way, the Hsiah family way
