母亲节祝福英文介绍（附中文）

三毛曾写过一篇《守望的天使》，被收在《稻草人手记》里，文章说，每个人生命中最真最诚的天使是自己的父母，天使终其一生舍尽全力来为自己的孩子挡风遮雨。在犹太人的谚语里，也有一句类似的表述，而且更为精辟God could not be everywhere and therefore be made mothers。母亲节来临之际，以下三个小板块向您传递一份感恩母爱的浓浓深情，并用心写上最为朴实的祝福：母亲节快乐！

Thanks to Anna M. Jarvis, Mother's Day has become an official holiday in the United States. Actually, People in many ancient cultures celebrated holidays honoring motherhood, personified as a goddess such as Rhea.

母亲节得以成为官方节日，得归功于一位伟大的女性安娜贾维思。不过，在这之前，母亲节最早可追溯到古希腊的众神之母Rhea（瑞亚），她是主神宙斯和天后赫拉的母亲。

M - O - T - H - E - R

"M" is for the million things she gave me,

"O" means only that she's growing old,

"T" is for the tears she shed to save me,

"H" is for her heart of purest gold;

"E" is for her eyes, with love-light shining,

"R" means right, and right she'll always be,

Put them all together, they spell "MOTHER,"

M-O-T-H-E-R意味着什么？有一首诗这么说，“M”代表她赐予了我整个世界，“O”意味着她正慢慢衰老，“T”是她为我留下的泪，“H”指她那颗金子般的心，“E”是她溢着慈爱的双眼，“R”则意味着正确、她始终是正确的，把这些字母合在一起就拼成了“母亲我的全部。

Mother Machree

There's a spot in my heart which no colleen may own; There's a depth in my soul never sounded or known; There's a place in my memory my life that you fill;

No other can take it

no one ever will;

Every sorrow or care

in the dear days gone by;

Was made bright by the light

of the smile in your eye;

Like a candle that's set

in a window at night;

Your fond love has cheered me and guided me right;

Sure I love the dear silver

that shines in your hair;

And the brow that's all furrowed and wrinkled with care;

I kiss the dear fingers

so toil warm for me;

Oh! God bless you and

keep you, mother machree!

在我的心灵之中

有个地方，深不可测

其境从未与闻

哪个少女也难问津；

在我的记忆之中

我的生命充满你的身影谁也不能取代

永远无人有此真情；

珍贵时光悠悠逝去

辛劳烦扰却永不消停

你眼中的微笑，其光彩使烦劳转为光明；

宛如点燃的烛光

深夜透窗棂

你深情的爱激励我

引领我一直前进；

是的，我爱你如银的发丝闪烁着深情的光芒

我爱你额上道道皱纹

岁月刻满沧桑

我吻你勤劳的手指

双手柔情温暖我心房；啊，慈母在我心

苍天保佑，福寿永绵长！

Carnation: the symbol of Mother's Day

Stories behind Mother's Day

关于母亲节的来历，我们似乎并不陌生一位名叫安娜贾维思的女性在她母亲去世一年后，用自己的行动使这一具有悠久历史的纪念活动上升为官方节日。不过，在这之前，母亲节最早可追溯到古希腊的众神之母瑞亚，她是主神宙斯和天后赫拉的母亲。另外，不同国家，庆祝母亲节的日期也不尽相同，比如：我们熟悉的“五月的第二个星期日”实际上是采用了美国的习俗，而在英国，母亲节则定在四旬节的第四个星期日。

Jewish Proverb: God could not be everywhere and therefore be made mothers.

Ancient celebrations of motherhood

Rhea, Mother of the Greek gods

People in many ancient cultures celebrated holidays honoring motherhood, personified as a goddess. Here are just a few of those:

Ancient Greeks celebrated a holiday in honor of Rhea(Photo), the mother of the gods, including Zeus.

Ancient Romans celebrated a holiday in honor of Cybele, a mother goddess.

In the British Isles and Celtic Europe, the goddessBrigid(Photo), and later her successor St. Brigid, were honored with a spring Mother's Day.

Motherhood honoured in modern times

Mothers' Day is not celebrated on the same day throughout the world, for instance, in America Mother's Day occurs on the second Sunday in May while in Britain it is honored on the fourth Sunday in Lent(For more information on Lent, please check out Lent in "Easter's dictionary" or Carnival in "Word & Story").

** Mother's Day in Britain (March 21st, 2006 )

simnel cake, a rich fruitcake sometimes covered with almond paste

Mothering Sunday was celebrated in Britain beginning in the 17th century.

It began as a day when apprentices and servants could return home for the day to visit

their mothers. Traditionally, men went home with a gift of "mothering cake" -- a kind of fruitcake or fruit-filled pastry known as simnel cake (Photo ).

** Mother's Day in America (May 14th, 2006)

Thanks to Anna M. Jarvis, Mother's Day has become an official holiday in the United States.

After a year when her mother died on May 9, 1905, Anna M. Jarvis attended a memorial service at their church. Inspired by the service, she thought it would be wonderful if people set aside a time to pay personal tribute to their mothers. Then, the daughter began using some of her inheritance to promote a day that would honor all mothers.

She and others staged a letter-writing campaign to ministers, businessmen, and politicians in their quest to establish a national Mother's Day. They were successful in the end. President Woodrow Wilson, in 1914, made the official announcement proclaiming Mother's Day a national observance that was to be held each year on the 2nd Sunday of May.

Carnation: the symbol of Mother's Day

It was Jarvis who originated the custom of wearing a carnation on Mother's Day because carnation was her mother's favorite flower.

A pink carnation is to honor a living mother and a white carnation is memory of a mother who passed away.
