爸爸我一直带着你从未忘记
在北京 纽约 伦敦和悉尼
把你撒进每一座美丽的港湾
把你融进翻涌的'浪花里
爸爸 我想你 我想你
这思念 让我痛彻心底
在天堂里你 能听到吗
我为你 唱的这段旋律
那是第一次在你面前放声哭泣
当工人把你身上的白布掀起
你依然像过去那样的沉默安详
只是再也没有了那些叮咛
爸爸 我想你 我想你
这思念让我 痛彻心底
在天堂里 你能听到吗
我为你 默默祈祷的声音
妈妈她比过去看上去苍老了许多
每天总会整夜开着电视
因为她的生命里突然没有你
那是怎样一种无法承受的孤寂
爸爸 我问你 我问你
为何你如此匆匆地离去
在天堂里 你能看到吗
我为你默默流下的泪滴
爸爸 我问你 我问你
为什么生命如此艰辛
在天堂里你能听到吗
我呼唤你的声音

歌颂父亲的英文诗歌一
It takes more than blood to be a dad.
Oh this is surely a proven fact.
I've seen men give his heart to a child …
Never once think of taking it back.
A Dad is the one who is always there;
He protects a child from all harm.
He gives a child the assurance that hewill be their anchor in any storm.
A real Dad is a man that teaches his child
all the things in life he needs to know.
He's the tower of strength a child leans on.
The source of love that helps them grow.
There are men that children call Daddy.
Oh, he is their shelter when it rains.
He showers them with unconditional love.
As if it were his blood in their veins.
Whenever you meet a Dad that redefines the word,
honor him with all the respect that is due.
Understand that he proudly wears this banner……
Because his heart is big enough for you.
It's sad but true that not all men understandit takes more than blood to be a dad.
Someday if they wake up to their empty life …
They shall miss what they could have had.
To those men who will never be a dad …
No matter what they say or do.
It takes more than blood to possess that title …
And it's only found in a man like you.
歌颂父亲的英文诗歌二
God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,
The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagles in flight,
The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family need,
Then God combined these qualities,
And there was nothing more to add,
He knew his masterpiece was complete,
And He called it – Dad.
歌颂父亲的英文诗歌三
Be kind to thy father, for when thou wert young,
Who loved thee so fondly as he?
He caught the first accents that fell from thy tongue,
And joined in thy innocent glee.
歌颂父亲的英文诗歌四
A Dad is a person who is loving and kind,
And often he knows what you have on your mind.
He's someone who listens, suggests, and defends -
A dad can be one of your very best friends!
He's proud of your triumphs, but when things go wrong,
A dad can be patient and helpful and strong
In all that you do, a Dad's love plays a part -
There's always a place for him deep in your heart.
And each year that passes, you're even more glad,
More grateful and proud just to call him your dad!
歌颂父亲的英文诗歌五
He doesn't stand out in a crowd,
just an average,
regular guy,
But to me he's a king and stands near ten feet high.
He loves and understands me,
whether I am good or bad.
They'll make the man that I will be,
the hours I spend with Dad.
歌颂父亲的英文诗歌六
I love someone dearly.
He's kind as can be;
He makes me so happy;
He's my dad, you see.
He takes me out fishing;
We play ball and swim;
He knows about everything;
I'm so proud of him.
And as I get bigger,
I just want to grow
To be like my daddy
Cause I love him so.
歌颂父亲的英文诗歌七
Only a dad with a tired face,
Coming home from the daily race,
Bringing little of gold or fame
To show how well he has played the game;
But glad in his heart that his own rejoice
To see him come and to hear his voice.
Only a dad with a brood of four,
One of ten million men or more
Plodding along in the daily strife,
Bearing the whips and the scorns of life,
With never a whimper of pain or hate,
For the sake of those who at home await.
Only a dad, neither rich nor proud,
Merely one of the surging crowd,
Toiling, striving from day to day,
Facing whatever may come his way,
Silent whenever the harsh condemn,
And bearing it all for the love of them.
Only a dad but he gives his all,
To smooth the way for his children small,
Doing with courage stern and grim
The deeds that his father did for him.
This is the line that for him I pen:
Only a dad, but the best of men.
