Farewell 送行

A popular classic Chinese farewell song.

"Parting is such a sweet sorrow (Shakespeare)."

Thinking of you, I hope to meet you in my dream.

送行 (歌詞)

長亭外 古道邊 芳草碧連天
晚風拂柳笛聲殘 夕陽山外山
天之涯 地之角 知交半零落
一觚濁酒盡餘歡 今宵別夢寒

思念遠方的朋友, 在此寫下幾句解相思潮。

願你平安
依依不捨送君別,
天涯地角知交離;
望君早日返鄉聚,
舉杯遙約夢中會。

※古事新釋: 科技進步, 兩地相思可摃電話;可將生活近況用電腦和手機傳遞相片、語音或影帶稍解思愁。不用再異域思念不了情而癡癡的空等待了。

Duck Business 閒聊鴨事

5 male ducks were having a meeting, I thought. First, they gathered in circle, and then 1 moved into center.
Not to disturb them, I went around to gather their feathers and played with them.
When I came back, I found the one in center stood on dock rail talking to them. I wished to know what they were talking about. Hey! MYOB!

五隻公鴨圍成一個圓圈, 好像在開會。不久, 一隻走到中間。
不想打擾它們, 我就去撿地上的羽毛來排編玩玩。
回來後,看到中間那隻跳到欄杆上𠿤嚕叫。真想知道它們在討論什麼要緊的事。
嗨, 別多管鴨事, 上網去啦!

Journey Home 回家

I might die next second! (From Francis Chan's "Crazy Love-Overwhelmed by a relentless God"). So might be everybody! Am I afraid or worry? No. Beyond the sunset, there is a sweet home waiting for me. The Bible assured me in Revelation 21:4: "He (The Lord Jesus) will wipe away all tears from their eyes, and there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying, nor pain. All of that has gone forever." I like "Beyond The Sunset" song and the home it described. I post it here.

下一瞬間我可能會死去! (自詹福適的書「被神瘋狂的愛擊潰」) 嚇一跳! 是人人都可能發生的。我害怕憂慮了嗎? 不。日落的那邊, 有一個可愛的家等着我。聖經啟示錄21章笫4節有記載: 「祂(救主耶穌) 要擦乾他們每一滴眼淚; 不再有死亡, 也沒有悲傷, 哭泣, 或痛苦。以往的事都已經過去了。」我喜歡這首「日落的那邊」歌和歌詞所描述我將歸去的家。將它上載於此。

Beyond the Sunset
Words by Virgil P. Brock (1887-1978)

Beyond the sunset, O blissful morning,
When with our Savior heav'n is begun;
Earth's toiling ended, O glorious dawning,
Beyond the sunset when day is done.
Beyond the sunset, no clouds will gather,
No storms will threaten, no fears annoy;
O day of gladness, O day unending,
Beyond the sunset eternal joy!
Beyond the sunset, a hand will guide me
To God the Father whom I adore;
His glorious presence, His words of welcome,
Will be my portion on that fair shore.
Beyond the sunset, O glad reunion,
With our dear loved ones who've gone before;
In that fair homeland we'll know no parting,
Beyond the sunset forever more!

日落的那邊

日落的那邊，賜福的早晨，在天堂樂境，與主相親；
勞碌盡完畢，榮耀的黎明，日落的那邊，永遠歡欣。　
日落的那邊，雲霧盡消去，無風暴威脅，無憂無慮；
榮耀快樂日，永遠快樂日，日落的那邊，歡樂不息。　
日落的那邊，主親手引領，到父寶座前，見父榮面；
同在榮耀中，主伸手相迎，美麗的那邊，直到萬年。　
日落的那邊，故人樂團圓，親愛者久別，歡喜相見；
在天家美地，不再有別離，日落的那邊，歡樂永遠！
