【Saying Good-bye to Cambridge Again】
Zhimo XU (1897—1931) Very quietly I take my leave As quietly as I came here; Quietly I wave good-bye To the rosy clouds in the western sky.
The golden willows by the riverside Are young brides in the setting sun; Their reflections on the shimmering waves Always linger in the depth of my heart.
The floating heart growing in the sludge Sways leisurely under the water; In the gentle waves of Cambridge I would be a water plant!
That pool under the shade of elm trees Holds not water but the rainbow from the sky; Shattered to pieces among the duckweeds Is the sediment of a rainbow-like dream?
To seek a dream? Just to pole a boat upstream To where the green grass is more verdant; Or to have the boat fully loaded with starlight And sing aloud in the splendor of starlight.
But I cannot sing aloud Quietness is my farewell music; Even summer insects heap silence for me Silent is Cambridge tonight!
Very quietly I take my leave As quietly as I came here; Gently I flick my sleeves Not even a wisp of cloud will I bring away —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【《再别康桥》】 徐志摩(1897生—1931卒) 轻轻的我走了, 正如我轻轻的来; 我轻轻的招手, 作别西天的云彩。 那河畔的金柳, 是夕阳中的新娘; 波光里的艳影, 在我的心头荡漾。
软泥上的青荇, 油油的在水底招摇; 在康桥的柔波里, 我甘做一条水草! 那榆荫下的一潭, 不是清泉,是天上虹; 揉碎在浮藻间, 沉淀着彩虹似的梦。
寻梦?撑一支长篙, 向青草更青处漫溯; 满载一船星辉, 在星辉斓里放歌。 但是我不能放歌, 悄悄是别离的笙萧; 夏虫也为我沉默, 沉默是今晚的康桥!
悄悄我走了, 正如我悄悄的来; 我挥一挥衣袖, 不带走一片云彩。 【注】前门大街在北京中轴线上,南起珠市口,北到正阳门箭楼,800多米长,500多年历史。明清时它是皇城与南城的分界,也是北京最热闹的商街。明嘉靖二十九年加筑外城,前门大街成了连接内城与外城的重要通道,因在正阳门外,百姓叫它“前门大街”。500年的商业传奇就从这里开始。街两旁的老房子是清末重建的——光绪二十六年庚子事变,义和团放火把整条街烧成了灰,清政府事后统一规划重修,用了二三层砖木结构,青砖灰瓦、雕梁画栋,中式骨架里掺着西洋细节,拱形门窗、铁艺栏杆、巴洛克山花,中西合璧又不别扭,站在街上看它们,能闻到100年前烧焦后又重生的那股劲儿。 全聚德同治三年就在这开了,至今还在老地方烤鸭子,炉火没断过;都一处乾隆三年创办,传说乾隆微服私访吃过,亲笔题了匾;月盛斋的酱牛肉连慈禧都专门派人来买;大北照相馆1921年开业,是北京最早的照相馆之一;同仁堂更早,康熙八年就有了,虽不在主街上也近在咫尺。这些老店垒在一起,把前门大街垒成了北京最有烟火气的地方——早上阳光照在正阳门箭楼上,铺板一块块卸下来,伙计擦柜台摆货,小贩支摊吆喝,游客举着手机拍那些老招牌,它们丑是丑了点儿,老是真的老。老得理直气壮,不跟你商量。每天都是这样过的,500多年就是这样过的,不是被设计出来的,是一天一天熬出来的。 500多年了,前门大街一直是北京最热闹的地方之一。它见过皇帝出巡的排场,也挨过庚子年的那把大火;迎来过车水马龙的黄金岁月,也熬过了一次次改朝换代的动荡。如今它还站在这里,青砖灰瓦,灯红酒绿,不慌不忙地用它的方式跟每一个走过的人说话。不是大声讲,是让你自己听——听烤鸭炉里的炭火声,听烧麦笼上的蒸汽声,听老字号伙计迎来送往的那句“您来了”。你不一定听懂,可你觉得它在说。说的不是北京的历史,是北京的日子。历史是人写的,日子是自己过的。前门大街替北京人把日子过在这里了,500年,没断过。 Today in History(历史上的今天):
