那些曾经惊天动地的，其实从未出现过，而那些缠绕在我们心头的，一直一直没有离开。
Those who have been earth shaking, in fact, never appeared, and those who twined in our hearts, has not left.
我是个不善于表达感情的女儿，16年间，我从未给父亲过过一个生日，甚至连一句"爸，生日快乐"这样的话都从未亲口说过。可我竟然从未愧疚过。因为我以为爸爸从不在乎这样一句平淡如水的话，我总是半开玩笑的对爸爸说，我们是君子之交，淡如水。
I am a daughter who is not good at expressing her feelings. In 16 years, I have never given my father a birthday, or even said a & quot; Dad, happy birthday & quot; in person. But I never felt guilty. Because I thought dad never cared about such a plain as water, I always half jokingly said to Dad, we are friends of gentlemen, light as water.
可是，我错了，我竟然错的那样离谱。
But I was wrong. I was so wrong.
就在不久之前，1月，爸爸生日那天我刚刚好在姥姥家。不知是谁提起来，今天是姐姐同学的生日要开派对。1月12日，我仿佛从梦中惊醒……今天好像是爸爸的生日……好像……是的。父亲理智的脸浮现，又退去。我拿起手机想打个电话，来完成我16年未曾尽到的义务，我又放下了，爸爸不会在意的。
Not long ago, in January, on my father's birthday, I was just at Grandma's house. I don't know who mentioned it. Today is my sister's classmate's birthday. On January 12, I woke up as if from a dream Today seems to be dad's birthday It seems that... Yes. Father's rational face appeared and retreated. I picked up my cell phone and wanted to make a phone call to fulfill my obligations that I hadn't fulfilled in 16 years. I put it down again. Dad wouldn't care.
姐姐出去了，抱着给同学的礼物。
My sister went out, holding the present for her classmates.
我拿起手机，打开发件箱。
I picked up my cell phone and opened the Outbox.
爸，生日快乐。
Happy birthday, Dad.
这是我唯一能做到的极限，一条短信而已。
This is the only limit I can achieve, just a text message.
第二天，妈妈也被叫到了姥姥家。饭桌上，妈妈神神秘秘地问我，眼里有掩不住的兴奋。"你……昨天给你爸爸发短信祝他生日快乐了，是吗？""嗯，你怎么知道？"我心跳得有些快，轻描淡写地说。
The next day, my mother was also called to grandma's house. At the dinner table, my mother asked me mysteriously. There was excitement in my eyes. &You I texted your father yesterday to wish him a happy birthday, didn't I? &Well, how do you know? &My heart beat a little fast, I said lightly.
妈妈是这样告诉我的。
That's what mom told me.
昨天我和你爸还有他的同事在外面吃饭。你爸的手机响了，说是有短信。他打开手机之后竟然愣了有半分钟，我赶忙问，怎么了？你爸爸的表情突然温柔起来，恩……我有许多年没见到他这么温柔的表情。然后他举着电话给我看，还大叫着，看呀，我女儿祝我生日快乐！你看到没有，她说爸，祝你生日快乐……
Yesterday, I was eating out with your father and his colleagues. Your dad's cell phone rings, saying there's a text message. After he turned on his cell phone, he was stunned for half a minute. I asked quickly, what's the matter? Your father's face suddenly softened, eh I haven't seen his gentle expression for many years. Then he held up the phone and showed it to me, shouting, look, my daughter wishes me a happy birthday! Do you see? She said Dad, happy birthday
妈说爸爸当时像一个孩子，在他的同事身边穿梭，给他的同事看那条短信，脸上或许是因为喝了酒而变得微红，眼睛里兴奋得闪着光，他真的很高兴。
Mom said that dad was like a child, shuttling around his colleagues, reading that message to his colleagues. Maybe his face was slightly red because he drank wine, and his eyes were shining with excitement. He was really happy.
一种细水长流的感情，在风中浅浅的低吟。我能看到爸爸当时那张微醉的脸，看到他曾经那么坚毅的身影，看到一个男人一个父亲不可倒下的身姿，看到那时那刻心柔软如湖水的父亲。因此，我也无比的惭愧。那只是一条短信呀，在别人看来微不足道的五个字。
A kind of feeling of flowing water and long time, singing in the wind. I can see Dad's slightly drunk face at that time, his once resolute figure, a man and his father's unshakable posture, and his heart as soft as the lake at that time. Therefore, I am also extremely ashamed. It's just a text message. It's five words that others think are insignificant.
我的父亲却把它当作生日最美丽的礼物。
My father regards it as the most beautiful gift for his birthday.
爸，生日快乐。
Happy birthday, Dad.
乖，我的好女儿。
Darling, my good daughter.
