我的歌声里听见了妈妈的泪水
记得小时候,家里的电视上经常播放黄梅戏。每当严凤英的那双眼眸在银幕上闪烁,我就会觉得自己仿佛置身于古老的江南水乡。我不知道那个时候的小我有没有意识到,那些看似平淡无奇的故事背后,是对生活深刻的诠释。
母亲总是在厨房忙碌着,偶尔会停下手中的活儿,走到客厅边,用一种近乎悄然的声音低语:“哎呀,这个剧情怎么这么像我们家的。”她的声音中充满了复杂的情感,而那些情感,却又似乎随风而逝,让我无法抓住它们。
黄梅戏,它是一种关于生活、爱情和命运的小小诗篇,每一句台词都透露出一种悲凉与温暖。我开始注意到母亲在看黄梅戏时,她的心情如何多变。她会因为剧中的悲剧而轻轻地呜咽,也会因为喜剧中的人物趣事而不禁露出了微笑。而我,却始终是旁观者,只能用自己的方式去理解她心中的世界。
有一次,我主动坐在母亲身边,看着同一个演出。严凤英饰演的一个角色,因为爱意过深,最终只能独自一人站在桥头,我们家也正处于一个相似的转折期。父亲工作外出,母亲却面临着生计的问题。我感觉到了那种无言之中弥漫开来的忧伤,就像严凤英在台上的样子一样。
那天晚上,我第一次真正地理解了“黄梅戏”的力量,它不仅仅是舞台上的表演,更是一种能够触动人心灵深处的情感沟通。在那个静谧的夜晚,当屏幕上的故事结束后,我的歌声不知从何处涌现出来,那是一个简单却又充满希望的声音,就像是想要安慰那个被世间万象包围,却又孤单无助的心灵。
Mother, mother, my song is for you. I know that the stories in these old plays are just like our own life's journey - full of twists and turns, happiness and sorrow. Just as the singers on stage use their voices to convey their emotions, I hope my voice can reach your heart and bring you some comfort.
In those moments when tears stream down your face while watching a yellow-bone opera or a melodrama on TV, I want you to know that it's not just the actors' performances that move us but also the deep understanding they show towards human nature. It's as if they speak directly to our souls.
I may not be able to change anything with my simple melody but at least let this small gift be a token of love from me to you. And who knows? Maybe one day when we're sitting together again in front of the TV watching another episode of "The Water Margin" or "Journey to the West," we'll both smile quietly knowing how much has changed yet how much remains unchanged between us.
So here it goes:
My song is dedicated to all those people out there who still find solace in traditional Chinese operas and dramas; for those who feel seen through these timeless stories; for everyone whose hearts have been touched by an actress named Fengying Shan; and most importantly, for every mother in this world who finds her way back home through music alone.
This piece is called 'A Song Dedicated To My Mother,' written from within my own little world where tradition meets modernity and love speaks louder than any words ever could.
