儿子学中文，有一篇关于岳飞小时家境贫寒买不起纸笔而用沙盘练字的故事。儿子问我知不知道中国古代百战百胜的将军岳飞。我说当然知道，难道你不记得我和你四年前到过“岳王庙”吗？我翻出了几年前我俩在岳飞铜像前拍的照片。岳飞威风凛凛地站在大厅中央，背后是他流转千古的诗篇《满江红 - 写怀》。岳王庙中的《满江红》是草书，不宜读懂。
为了让儿子更深刻地理解岳飞，我和女儿一起把《满江红》翻成了英文。虽然参照了一些已有的译文（ http://www.crazyenglish.org/zhuantiyingyu/duanyujiangjie/20081014/24046.html ），但有许多地方不满意。请各位大虾指正。
