逝去

Longtime California pastor Ray Stedman once told his congregation:"On New Year's Eve we realize more than at any other time in our lives that we can never go back in time.... We can look back and remember, but we cannot retrace a single moment of the year that is past."

美国加州的资深牧师司德曼有一次对会众说：「比起一年中的其他日子，我们在除夕时，特别能感受到时间一去不复返……我们可以回顾和回忆，但是我们无法把逝去的任何一刻追回来。

The streetlamp dies, another night is over

熄灭的街灯，又一个夜晚的逝去

By the end of the "Forever's First Day", we realize that what appeared to have been a sunshiny love song perhaps is in fact a bittersweet imagination of a deluded lover.

当《永远的第一天》结束以后，我们会发现这首看似快乐的歌，其实是在想像已逝去的爱情的甘与苦。

Please don't tell a child he/she must take the loved one's place.

请不要要求孩子来取代他或她逝去的亲人。

In fact this is more a conventional Diamond collection than a Rick Rubin production, dominated by lightly understated country rock arrangements played by a crack team including Smokey Hormel, Heartbreakers Benmont Tench and Mike Campbell and the usually experimental Matt Sweeney.

他已经67岁了，他的黄金时期也已经逝去了，他甚至不再被别的国家的歌迷所关注（要知道，截至2005年，他的专辑在全世界范围内已经售出了1亿2千万张，这简直是个天文数字，但在美国的销量不过4800万张，可见他的影响力是国际性的），但是他还是用那种特别的声音唱出他的时代里的东西。

It happens to be Tomb-Sweeping Day these days, so I yearn for my past ten years deeply.

这几天正好是清明节，所以我对自己已经逝去的十年特别的怀念。

Monday was China's traditional "Tomb-Sweeping Day", when people mourn their dead.

周一是中国传统的清明节，人们在这一天祭奠逝去的亡灵。

Standing in front of these oil paintings of Feng Jincao , as if we were flying through the time tunnel. Whirring wind slipped by , clouds changed their shapes quickly, and continual changing views blurred and danced before our eyes. We trace the jumping-of point of human being in a diverse direction of time's growth. Those brilliant rays of history frozen in memory reflect on our dress, and the root of our culture shows loving care for modern people's sprit and life by Feng's painting.

站在冯劲草的油画作品面前，我们仿佛正在穿越时空隧道，耳边是呼呼的风声，眼前是千层万叠的烟云和不断模糊变幻的视野，我们逆向时间轴的速度要追回人类逝去的起点，那些凝结在记忆里的历史光芒斑驳地映在我们的衣杉上，我们的文化之根正通过冯劲草特殊的油画表达方式，关怀着当代人的精神和生活。

In vain to comfort myself with the thought that I could get through more work in the winter undistracted by thoughts of cricket grounds and country houses.

一星期前————一星期前，我还在为即将逝去的夏季而哀伤，还在想自己怎么可能忍受长达八个月等待的煎熬——还有八个月才是夏季呀！

The split between the two groups can hardly be papered over.

这两个团体间的分歧难以掩饰。
