序 by James Koo A40
Wlater Mok recently sent this article to SF Bay Area Lighters. I really enjoyed it and suggeted he submitting it to Lighter's website. The high schools in Shanghai taught ideological writings in 國語課 until 高一. Came to HK after finishing 高一, my education in classic Chinese is very limited and especially enjoy this article.

A message from the loved one.
You say that you love rain,
but you open your umbrella when it rains...
You say that you love the sun,
but you find a shadow spot when the sun shines...
You say that you love the wind,
But you close your windows when wind blows...
This is why I am afraid;
You say that you love me too...
【用普通話翻譯為】
你說你喜歡雨，
但是下雨的時候你卻撐開了傘；
你說你喜歡陽光，
但當陽光播撒的時候，
你卻躲在陰涼之地；
你說你喜歡風，
但清風撲面的時候，
你卻關上了窗戶。
我害怕你對我也是如此之愛。
【用詩經文體翻譯為】
子言慕雨，啓傘避之。
子言好陽，尋蔭拒之。
子言喜風，闔戶離之。
子言偕老，吾所畏之。
【用離騷文體翻譯為】
君樂雨兮啓傘枝，
君樂晝兮林蔽日，
君樂風兮欄帳起，
君樂吾兮吾心噬。
【用五言詩文體翻譯為】
戀雨偏打傘，
愛陽卻遮涼。
風來掩窗扉，
葉公驚龍王。
片言只語短，
相思繾綣長。
郎君說愛我，
不敢細思量。
【用七言絕句文體翻譯為】
微茫煙雨傘輕移，
喜日偏來樹底棲。
一任風吹窗緊掩，
付君心事總猶疑。
【用七律文體翻譯為】
江南三月雨微茫，
羅傘輕撐細細香。
日送微醺如夢寐，
身依濃翠趁蔭涼。
忽聞風籟傳朱閣，
輕蹙蛾眉鎖碧窗。
一片相思君莫解，
錦池只恐散鴛鴦。
不知道這世界上是否還有第二種語言能像中文這樣，擁有如此美的韻律，豐富的表現形式！
在這個狂躁跟風的時代，我們是否可以停下腳步，靜下心來，欣賞一下我們自己的語言文化，品味一下中文帶給我們的不一樣的感動呢？！

A week ago, Kamsik arranged a "Bring your own sandwich in a park" for a lunch get together in Sunnyvale, Ca. Walter Mok told me he is only available on Tuesday. So I called him this Monday and he said they wull come. He further told me that Amanda will prepare an Italian dish Frittata, along with Italian carbonated water, Itilian coffee, tea, served with real silver, glasses, plates on a table cloth.
I quickly tried to ask other Lighters to join us. Alas, nobody can come with such short notice. I was able to invite a past colleague of mine and Winnie cancelled his ballet class to come. We all had a good time, and my large sandwich for 4 was untouched.
Whatever Walter does, he does with CLASS. We all said it is difficult to be his better half. Hope he will do that again in the future and more classmate can enjoy the lunch in the park with CLASS.
