Saying goodbye to my years up high
1 Hello, everyone. It’s so nice to see you on my last day at work. The past 30 years were filled with both challenges and joys. All my days up high in the air will be kept in my memory.
2 I still remember my first summer as a “spiderman”. It was a day much hotter than today! I was wet all over. Drops of sweat fell in my eyes. When I opened them, I saw a juicy watermelon. It was carefully cut into small pieces. A kind woman was smiling brightly at me from inside the building. That was the sweetest watermelon of my life.
在我工作的最后一天
既有挑战也有喜悦
将珍藏在我的记忆里
那天比今天热多了!
我浑身湿透。
汗珠滴进眼睛里。
它已经被细心切成小块。
一位善良的女士从楼里向我灿烂地微笑着。
3 I’m reminded of some other friends I met through the glass. There was this sweet newborn baby. I watched her grow bit by bit. She was always excited when I appeared outside her window. She laughed as her cat tried to “catch” my brush. Later, she drew a picture of me and showed it to me! Happiness passed through the glass and into my heart. One day, her mother held up a note for me: the family was moving. I felt sad, but also happy that we were once friends.
我还想起了透过窗户结识的几位朋友。
新生儿
看着她一点点长大
每次我出现在她窗外
看到她的小猫试着 “抓” 我的
清洁刷时,她总会哈哈大笑。
画了一幅我的画像
幸福透过玻璃,照进了我的心房。
举起一张纸条
我们曾是朋友
他们一家要搬家了
4 Window cleaning is not always considered a good job, but I’ll never regret it. I have met a lot of kind people and been part of many warm stories. I found a sense of achievement in my job.
5 Today I am saying goodbye to my job as a “spiderman”. And you are going to start your days up in the air. The city shines brighter because of us, and the job will make us shine, too. Best wishes to you all!
