Travelogue of the
Great Helmsman |
Memory of the Past. The SINA site near the end of this story links to a song, composed by Huang Zi back in 30s. In 59, the Great Helmsman met 小小姑娘 on President Wilson, an ocean liner. At the time the ship sailed westward, on board The Great Helmsman met his fate. This story has been told many moons ago, repeated here to bring back the memory of the past. 上回 "光陰荏苒" 提要 (first edition: Dec. Dec/08/05) … … 燕兒 嫣然一笑, 梨渦淺現, 轉身急行而去, 正像當年小小姑娘一般. 少總舵主看到, 心如刀割. 唉,小小姑娘, 如今下落不明,不知嫁了何人何姓.! 真是; 光陰荏苒,人憔悴. 花自飄零, 水自流 ! 這一回 “魂斷虹橋 ” 少總舵主坐了一會,燕兒回來了,手上一碟, sesame biscuits 上放 thin slices of wind-cured ham (Proscuitto), 另加一杯 Courvoisier VSOP, 都是少總舵主最欣賞的小飲食. 燕兒放在少總舵身旁小几. “How do you know I like these?” 燕兒淺笑 “Don’t ask , don’t tell .” 坐下少總舵身邊. “Like them ?” “Yes, very good, love it. Thank you for preparing them.” “I would like to talk to you about something.’ “Sure, please go ahead” “Well, it is about …” 其實少總舵主看著燕兒,心裡想著小小姑娘. 跟本什麼也未聽入耳. 只是微微點頭. 心中飛到當年總統船最後的一晚, 停在金門橋外, 准備明朝一早上岸. 船上設有最後一晚的舞會. 舞會上, 小小姑娘輕說“Hey Bobby, they are playing [just walking in the rain]. You like this song”. “Let us dance.” “Yes, lets. Hold me tighter. Bobby” 少總舵主擁抱著小小姑娘而舞, 爽哉, 真是不知今宵酒醒何處. 人生不過如此. 輕聲說 “ Hey , they now play [ You don’t know me ], you like this also” “Yes, let us dance again.” 正是兩情迷惘之際, “May I cut in?” 原來 阿John 要cut in. 這個阿John, 身材高大, 相貌英勇, 乃是當年武當第一高手張召重的後幾代傳人,前時紅花會四當家文泰來的死敵. 少總舵主冷目瞄著阿John. “Hi John, Bobby and I were just about to go out to the deck, sorry, some other time.” 小手拉著少總舵主步出船倉. 少總舵主回頭一看, 兩道穿心目光射到, 少總舵主微微一笑,運起何文田山絕技, 一招虛懷若谷, 將穿心箭化得無影無? 在甲板上, 星月朦矓, 船旁煙輕水盪, 微波反照, 月影成雙, 金門橋上車輛行走, 燈光閃爍, 就像晚上一道 閃閃發光的彩虹, 跨天而過. 星月彩虹今宵且醉. 明朝各走寂寞天涯. 小姑娘細聲輕唱 “ 記得當時年紀小, 我愛談天,你愛笑.有一回並肩坐在桃樹, 風在林梢, 鳥在叫, 我們不知怎樣睡著了, 夢裡花兒落少. “Bobby, 這首 黃自作的往事, 你記住了, 有一天你我相見, 若不認得, 只憑這首歌相認, 好嗎?” “ 緊記心中, 永世不忘.” 《本事》 盧前 譜曲:黃自 記得當時年紀小, 我愛談天你愛笑。 有一回並肩坐在桃樹下, 風在林梢鳥在叫, 我們不知怎樣困覺了, 夢裏花落知多少。 Click the link below to listen to the song: http://you.video.sina.com.cn/b/4423211-1275542705.html Perhaps the great helmsman could see 小小姑娘 in the video. And she is singing to him. Yes, dreams do come true sometimes, if you wish hard enough. |
