“Dear St. Valentine,

“親愛的圣瓦倫丁：

I’m writing to you about a beautiful young lady who has been in this household for 25 years now—come March 4.

我寫的這封信同一位美麗的女士有關(guān)。到今年3月4日，她就在這個(gè)家庭生活了足足25年了。

I have a request to make of you but before doing so feel you should know more about her. For one thing she has 2 hearts—her own and mine. I’m not complaining. I gave her mine willingly, and like it right where it is. Her name is Nancy but for some time now I’ve called her Mommie and don’t believe I could change.

我想請(qǐng)求您做一件事，但是在此之前，我希望您能對(duì)她有更多的了解。首先，她有兩顆心：一顆是她自己的心，一顆是我的心。我對(duì)此毫無(wú)怨言，因?yàn)槲倚母是樵傅貙⒆约旱男慕挥枇怂?，也希望這顆心一直在那。她的名字叫南希，不過(guò)一段時(shí)間以來(lái)我一直叫她“媽媽”，已經(jīng)無(wú)法改口了。

My request of you is—could you on this day whisper in her ear that someone loves her very much and more and more each day? Also tell her, this “Someone” would run down like a dollar clock without her so she must always stay where she is.”

我對(duì)您的請(qǐng)求是：在今天這個(gè)特別的日子里，能否悄悄地靠在她耳邊對(duì)她說(shuō)，有一個(gè)人深愛著她，他的愛與日俱增?同時(shí)也請(qǐng)告訴她，如果沒有她，這個(gè)人會(huì)像電子表一樣停止運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)，所以請(qǐng)她一直留在這個(gè)地方。”
