Emotions on a Friend Returing Her Hometown by Jingyu Translated by Christopher Tai Inscription: Many of the thoughts and emotions of life come from the fact that we can never turn back, and we also have to go the final destination, whether known or unknown, with the wheel of time. Everyone's life is mixed with all emotions. Already thousands of miles away from home Though the shadow of missing you is behind me it only stretches longer with time Walking on that familiar street Run into the one who once was full of sunshine The thoughts that followed Spread in the wind of homeland garden Like those grass seeds we once planted Using the one stroke which was not written well to comb the tangle of the past where things remain but people change Trying to reconcile in the dust of reality Suddenly, a different definition in life is found My hometown is Years of winter and summer memories My homeland is The past that I thought was long forgotten 感念友人还乡 文/静语 题记:人生的许多思索和感慨来自于我们永远无法回头,又还要随着时间的车轮走向茫茫已知和未知的终点。每个人的人生都五味杂陈。 离乡已有万里 思念的影子在身后 却越拉越长 当走上那条熟悉的街 遇见曾经阳光的他 甩下的思绪 在故园的风里蔓延 如一颗颗不知何时种下的草粒 没有写好的那一笔 物是人非的过去 梳理着往昔的纠结 试图和解在 现实的风尘里 猛然间发现人生里不同的定义 家乡是 若干年的寒暑记忆 故土是 以为早已遗忘的过去 Jingyu is a pen name of Xin Liu (Lucy Liu).
