念奴娇·赤壁怀古
大江东去,浪淘尽,千古风流人物。
静夜思,人issun, west indies, 天evershielded by the waves of sand that roll over the water.
In time, when the sun shines on earth like a star, and a man says, "I am not happy," it is not because he loves his country, but because he is now unhappy with his life.
Now, I look back at our heroes, and they are so much like what I have seen in history. Some of them are as old as my father; others are as young as your son. And, for all that we do, the fight for freedom is alive and growing.
"The great rivers flow forth from the sea, filling up our minds with their power." But when we look at history, we see how things have changed. Some people are gone; some remain. That is why we honor them and remember them in our memory as they pass through time.
"In ancient times, the future was bright, but now it seems dark and foreboding."
So, when I hear about your hero, who is a great man from your past, I will not be too proud of him. Let me just think about this: we are all part of history now, in time, and as far as our lives go.
"When men talk about their lives, they often talk about what they have seen. They talk about the past, but some of them are still alive," said a man I knew once. So, let me not be too concerned with my own thoughts; perhaps it is better for me to just take everything as it comes and see how it all ends.
So, let us move on and forget our stories about history, except that they may come back to us in the future when we look down upon them. But at the same time, I must be careful not to confuse myself with the world around me. The world is so vast, and it's a little hard for me to believe that someone like you—let’s call him your hero—might have had all of this life in one place.
Alright, let's start. Let's talk about the future. Maybe there will be some changes, but perhaps not as drastic as history tells us it is now. So, when I read about these heroes and their deeds, I will just focus on how much they contributed to the world around me. Let's move forward together in the hope that this journey ends well for all of us.
