亞妹

飲茶去

七點鐘了

今天

在戲曲中心

看著再世紅梅記

喝著普洱茶

嚐過五味點心

只知道

昔日不再

因為

已沒有人再敲著我房門叫:

亞妹

飮茶去

那是父親的聲音

二十二年了

但是

心底裡

還總是覺得

您跟媽媽也是和我在一起

看著這

再世紅梅記折子戲

喝著普洱茶

也許

您會愛吃蓮蓉包

香橙

在這裏

也給您繪畫了

希望您喜歡

錦芙

記得您在二十二年前的今天走了

p.s. 應該是23年。我錯計了。 

To my father

who often knocked on my door at seven o’clock in the morning 

whenever I came back home for Christmas holidays

Let’s go yum cha

he would often say

today we went to the particular performance at the Tea House Theatre at Xi Qu Centre

my parents would have liked it

they must have tasted similar kind of dim sum and pu- erh tea while enjoying the Cantonese opera

twenty two years have passed

my parents are no longer around

but having dim sum and enjoying the Cantonese opera

is like being with them again

at least 

in spirit

P.S. actually, 23 years. I made a mistake.
