Was ever a wedding
So wonderful
As hers?
The day my daughter married….
The music of Mendelssohn,
Cascades of color,
Orchids and lilies
And lavender organdy,
Candlelight catching on
Satin and lace and lashes
Wet with tears….
But more,
More than all that,
There was such wonder,
Such awe, such magic,
As love walked down that aisle!
曾经有任何婚礼
像她的婚礼一般如此美好吗?
我挚爱的女儿结婚那天….
曼德尔颂的音乐轻扬,
彩色的瀑布倾泻,
兰花、百合花
薰衣草织成的花海,
醉人的烛光摇曳
丝缎、蕾丝和闪动的睫毛
都被泪水沾湿….
还有,
除了这些以外,
那更美好的,
让人震慑的神奇,
当爱缓缓走过红毯!
