水调歌头苏轼明月几时有，把酒问青天。不知天上宫阙，今夕是何年。我欲乘风归去, 又恐琼楼玉宇，高处不胜寒，起舞弄清影，何似在人间。转朱阁，低绮户，照无眠。不应有恨，何事长向别时圆。人有悲欢离合，月有阴晴圆缺，此事古难全。但愿人长久，千里共婵娟。"Thinking of You" When will the moon be clear and bright? With a cup of wine in my hand, I ask the blue sky.I don't know what season it would be in the heavens on this night.I'd like to ride the wind to fly home. Yet I fear the crystal and jade mansions are much too high and cold for me. Dancing with my moon-lit shadow It does not seem like the human world The moon rounds the red mansion Stoops to silk-pad doors Shines upon the sleepless Bearing no grudgeWhy does the moon tend to be full when people are apart? People may have sorrow or joy, be near or far apart The moon may be dim or bright, wax or wane This has been going on since the beginning of time May we all be blessed with longevity Though far apart, we are still able to share the beauty of the moon together. Living Life Over If I had my life to live over...I would have talked less and listened more. I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was strained and the sofa faded. I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth. I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed. I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage. I would have sat on the lawn with my children and not worried about grass stains. I would have cried and laughed less while watching television - and more while watching life. I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would go into a holding patter if I were not there for the day. I would never have bought anything just because it was practical, would not show soil or was guaranteed to last a life time. There would have been more "I love yous" ... more "I'm sorrys"... but mostly, given another shots at life, I would seize every minute... look at it and really see it...live it...and never give it back. 如果有来生 如果有来生，我会少说，多听 我会请朋友来家吃饭，即便地毯脏了，沙发褪色了。 我会抽时间听祖父絮叨他的青年时代 我不会因为刚刚把头发梳理定型而要求在夏天关上车窗。 我会点燃那支雕成玫瑰状的蜡烛，而不让它在尘封中熔化。 我会与孩子们坐在草地上，不去担心草地上的污渍。 我会把泪水和笑声更多地留给观察人生，而不是观看电视。 如果生病了，我会卧床休息，而不是自认没有我，地球就不转了。 我不会买那些仅仅是实用，或者不显脏，或者保证能用一生的东西。 我会更多地说“我爱你”……“对不起”……然而，最重要的是，如果有来生， 我会抓住每一秒……看人生，读人生……体验人生……再也不放手The Music Within Life...What is it? See it in the colors of autumn, A gentle snowfall in winter, A sudden shower in spring, The radiance of a summer day. Behold it in the laughter Of the young and the old. Know of it in a surge of hope, The blessings that are bountiful. What is life? It is joy,awareness, And the music within. Frow New Voice in American Poetry心灵深处的音乐生命是什么？ 它浸染在五彩缤纷的秋色里， 飘融在轻柔无语的冬雪中， 在阵阵春雨里， 在绚丽夏日中。 它包含在老人爽朗的笑声里， 也隐匿在孩子们天真的嬉戏中。 它汹涌在人们的希望里， 它荡漾在美好的祝福中， 生命是什么？ 是欢乐，是领悟， 是心灵深处的音乐。

BUT wherefore do not you a mightier wayMake war upon this bloody tyrant, Time?And fortify yourself in your decayWith means more blessèd than my barren rime?Now stand you on the top of happy hours,And many maiden gardens, yet unset,With virtuous wish would bear your living flowers,Much liker than your painted counterfeit:So should the lines of life that life repairWhich this time's pencil or my pupil pen,Neither in inward worth nor outward fairCan make you live yourself in eyes of men.To give away yourself keeps yourself still,And you must live, drawn by your own sweet skill.但是为什么不用更凶的法子去抵抗这血淋淋的魔王--时光？不用比我的枯笔吉利的武器，去防御你的衰朽，把自己加强？你现在站在黄金时辰的绝顶，许多少女的花园，还未经播种，贞洁地切盼你那绚烂的群英，比你的画像更酷肖你的真容：只有生命的线能把生命重描；时光的画笔，或者我这枝弱管，无论内心的美或外貌的姣好，都不能使你在人们眼前活现。献出你自己依然保有你自己，而你得活着，靠你自己的妙笔。I was her she was me 我就是她 她就是我We were one we were free 我们是一个人 我们很自由And if there's somebody calling me on 如果有人在呼唤我She's the one 她就是那个人If there's somebody calling me on 如果有人呼唤我She's the one 那一定是她We were young we were wrong 我们很年轻 我们曾做过错事We were fine all along 我们一直都很好If there's somebody calling me on 如果有人呼唤我She's the one 她就是那个人When you get to where you wanna go 当你去了你想去的地方And you know the things you wanna know 你知道了你想知道的事情You're smiling 你会开心的笑When you said what you wanna say 当你说出你要说的And you know the way you wanna play 按你喜欢的方式做事You'll be so high you'll be flying 你会感觉你在飞翔Though the sea will be strong 尽管困难重重I know we'll carry on 我知道我会继续努力的Cos if there's somebody calling me on 因为如果有人呼唤我She's the one 她就是那个人If there's somebody calling me on 如果有人呼唤我She's the one 她就是那个人
