第一篇--
Waves of the life 生命的波纹
Sioux Indian story ...
My grandfather took me to the fish pond on the farm when I was about seven, and he told me to throw a stone into the water. He told me to watch the circles created by the stone. Then he asked me to think of myself as that stone.
"You may create lots of splashes in your life, but the waves that come from those splashes will disturb the peace of all your fellow creatures," he said.
"Remember that you are responsible for what you put in your circle and that circle will also touch many other circles."
"You will need to live in a way that allows the good that comes from your circle to send the peace of that goodness to others. The splash that comes from anger or jealousy will send those feelings to other circles. You are responsible for both."
That was the first time I realized that each person creates the inner peace or discord that flows out into the world. We cannot create world peace if we are riddled with inner conflict, hatred, doubt, or anger.
We radiate the feelings and thoughts that we hold inside, whether we speak them or not. Whatever is splashing around inside of us is spilling out into the world, creating beauty or discord with all other circles of life.
这是苏语系印第安人部落中流传的一个古老的故事……
在我七岁那年,我的祖父来到田边的一个池塘.他让我丢一颗石子到水中,并嘱咐我仔细观察石子所激起的水波纹.然后他叫我把自己想象成那颗石子.
他说:“在生命的水面上,你也许能激起许多波纹,而你所激起的波纹也会打破别人的平静,”
“要谨记,对你所激起的波纹中所包含的东西负责,因为这些东西会接触、影响到别人的波纹.”
“你应当努力使自己波纹中的平和宁静传播给他人.当然,如果你的波纹中携带有愤怒、嫉妒,别人也会受到你的影响,因此,你要对它们负责.”
这是我第一次了解到,每个人心中的平和抑或不和,都会传播给整个世界.如果我们自己内心都被冲突、仇恨、疑虑或者愤怒所纠缠,自然就不能给世界带来平和宁静.
无论我们是否说出心中的感觉和思绪,我们都在向外界传播它们.无论我们内心激起的是何种波纹,它们都会被传向他人,与别人的生命波纹共同激起美丽,抑或是不和谐.
第二篇
Wind of forgiveness 宽恕的风
The story goes that two friends were walking through the desert. During some point of the journey they had an argument, and one friend slapped the other one in the face.
The one who got slapped felt hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand: "Today my best friend slapped me in the face."
They kept on walking until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath. The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him.
After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone: "Today my best friend saved my life."
The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, "After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now you write on a stone. Why?"
The other friend replied: "When someone hurts us we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can erase it away. But when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it."
两个朋友结伴穿越沙漠,旅途中二人突然吵了起来,其中一个掴了对方一记耳光.被打的人感到自己受了伤害,但什么也没有说,只是在沙地上写下了这样一句话:“今天我最好的朋友掴了我耳光.他们继续前行,看见到处绿洲,他们正打算在那里洗澡时,刚才被打的人不小心陷入了泥潭,开始深陷,他的朋友救了他.
等他从几近淹死的边缘苏醒过来后,他在石头上刻下:“今天我最好的朋友救了我的命.”他的朋友问:“为什么我伤你之后,你在沙子上写字,现在却把字刻在石头上?” 他回答道:“当有人伤害了我们,我们应该把它写进沙里,宽恕的风会把仇恨抹去.而当有人为我们做了好事,我们应当把它刻在石头上,没有风可以将它抹去.”
第三篇
Lake Of Autumn
I remember quite clearly now when the story happened. The autumn leaves were floating in measure down to the ground, recovering the lake, where we used to swim like children, under the sun was there to shine. That time we used to be happy. Well, I thought we were. But the truth was that you had been longing to leave me, not daring to tell me. On that precious night, watching the lake, vaguely conscious, you said: “Our story is ending.”
The rain was killing the last days of summer. You had been killing my last breath of love, since a long time ago. I still don’t think I’m gonna make it through another love story. You took it all away from me. And there I stand, I knew I was going to be the one left behind. But still I’m watching the lake, vaguely conscious, and I know my life is ending.
我仍清晰地记得故事发生的时候.秋叶翻飞,飘落一地.我们曾经孩子般戏水畅游过的小湖盖满落叶,在太阳下闪着光.那时我们幸福过.哦,我是这样认为的.可事实上你早就想离开我,只是不敢告诉我罢了.在那美丽的夜晚,眼望湖水,恍惚中听见你说:我们的故事已到尽头.
雨水扼杀着所剩无几的夏日,而你很久以来也在扼杀我奄奄一息的爱.我仍不认为自己会再去经历另一段爱情故事.你把一切都带走了.我只有悄然伫立,早已明白自己将会是那个被遗弃的人.而我依然凝望着湖水,恍惚中,生命正离我而去.
第四篇
Love is a two-way street爱是一条双行道
A father sat at his desk poring over his monthly bills when his young son rushed in and announced,
“Dad, because this is your birthday and you’re 55 years old, I’m going to give you 55 kisses, one for each year!” When the boy started making good on his word, the father exclaimed, “Oh, Andrew, don’t do it now; I’m too busy!”
The youngster immediately fell silent as tears welled up in his big blue eyes. Apologically the father said, “You can finish later.”
The boy said nothing but quietly walked away, disappointment written over his face. That evening the father said, “Come and finish the kisses now, Andrew!” But the boy didn’t respond.
Unfortunately, a few days later after this incident, the boy had an accident and was drowned. His heartbroken father wrote...
“If only I could tell him how much I regret my thoughtless words, and could be assured that he knows how much my heart is aching.”
…Love is a two-way street. Any loving act must be warmly accepted or it will be taken as rejection and can leave a scar. If we are too busy to give and receive love, we are too busy! Nothing is more important than responding with love to the cry for love from those who are near and precious to us. Because... there may be no chance at all as in the case of the little boy...
父亲坐在办公桌旁,正盯着那些堆积了一个月来的账单,这时,他的小儿子冲了过来,大声宣布:
“爸爸,因为今天是你五十五岁的生日, 我想给你五十五个吻,一年一个!”当男孩正要兑现诺言时,他爸爸大声说道:“哦,安德鲁,现在不行,我太忙了!”
小男孩马上不吭声了,蓝色的大眼睛里涌满了泪水.父亲深表歉意地说:“过会有空再亲吧.”
男孩什么也没说,只是静静地走开了,失望的表情溢于言表.那天晚上,父亲说:“来吧安德鲁,现在可以亲了!”但是,孩子却没有做出回应.
不幸的是,这件事刚过去几天之后,小男孩就不幸溺水身亡.伤心欲绝的爸爸写道:
“如果我早告诉他,对于那些无心的话我是多么后悔,他一定会明白我的心有多么痛.”
爱,是一条双行道.对于爱的表示一定要热心地接受,否则对方会以为你拒绝了,从而留下一道伤痕.如果我们忙得连给予和接受爱的时间都没有,那未免也忙得太过分了!对于那些在我们身边,对我们弥足珍贵的人,用爱去回应他们爱的渴望,这最重要不过了!因为……如果发生像小男孩这样的情况,即使后悔也没有机会了.
第五篇
The Real Meaning of Peace宁静的真谛(没有翻译啊)
There once was a king who offered a prize to the artist who would paint the best picture of peace. Many artists tried. The king looked at all the pictures. But there were only two he really liked, and he had to choose between them. One picture was of a calm lake. The lake was a perfect mirror for peaceful towering mountains all around it. Overhead was a blue sky with fluffy white clouds. All who saw this picture thought that it was a perfect picture of peace.
The other picture had mountains, too. But these were rugged and bare. Above was an angry sky, from which rain fell and in which lightning played. Down the side of the mountain tumbled a foaming waterfall. This did not look peaceful at all.
But when the king looked closely, he saw behind the waterfall a tiny bush growing in a crack in the rock. In the bush a mother bird had built her nest. There, in the midst of the rush of angry water, sat the mother bird on her nest — in perfect peace.
Which picture do you think won the prize? The king chose the second picture. Do you know why?
“Because,” explained the king, “peace does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work. Peace means to be in the midst of all those things and still be calm in your heart. That is the real meaning of peace.”
第六篇
微笑
When you smile, I smile, that’s the deal.
I will not walk past you and not look you in the eyes and not acknowledge you.
Instead we will pass each other and say hello.
Not with our words, for they are not the same; but with our faces.
I meet you and I see there is good in your eyes, there's passion in your heart and there's a friendly hello in your smile.
And for the first time we can relate and appreciate each other.
That’s all it takes, that’s where it starts.
Because I know that you will smile and I will smile and the rest is easy.
参考译文
微笑
当你微笑,我也微笑,我们一言为定.
我不会从你身边走过并且不看着你的双眼,不会给你任何回应.
相反,我们互相走过时会对对方说:“你好”.
不是我们的语言,因为它们是不一样的;而是用我们的脸.
我遇到你,我从你的眼睛中看到美好,你心中拥有热情,还有从你的笑容中听到你说“你好”.
这是我们第一次建立关系,第一次相互欣赏.
就是这么简单,一切从这一刻开始.
因为我知道你会微笑,我会微笑,其余一切都会很容易.
第七篇
这个我很喜欢,很有意义
Inseparable, in Life or Death
Translator: Ruth Hung; Ted Barham; Guang-Yu Li From Oxford University
Inseparable, in life or death.
Wherever your dreams have rested,
Believe that life can last.
The sky has lost its beauty,
But you expect to stand tomorrow.
Wherever you are, I’ll find you.
Our blood ties can achieve the impossible,
Your shouts are pulsing through my veins.
Inseparable, in life or death.
I am waiting for you,
counting the seconds.
Believing life can last.
I cannot see you,
But you are lying here in my heart.
Wherever you are,
I will find you.
Our blood ties can achieve the impossible,
Hand in hand we are laying the road
For your journey back home.
Inseparable, in life or death.
The whole world is reduced to silence,
Suffering, shedding no tears.
Love will make your life legendary,
After the rain there will be a rainbow.
Wherever you are,
I will find you.
Our blood ties can achieve the impossible,
Your thread of hope is my whole source of power .

生死不离
生死不离,你的梦落在哪里
想着生活继续
天空失去美丽
你却等待明天站起
无论你在哪里
我都要找到你
血脉能创造奇迹
你的呼唤却刻在我的血液里
生死不离
我数着分秒等你信息
相信生命不息
我看不到你
你却牵挂在我心里
无论你在哪里
我都要找到你
血脉能创造奇迹
搭起双手筑成你回家的路基
生死不离,全世界都被沉寂
痛苦也不哭泣
爱是你的传奇
彩虹在风雨后升起
无论你在哪里
我都要找到你
血脉能创造奇迹
你一丝希望是我全部的动力
