13 致十年后的你 1.23～4.8

武汉伢，请打开这封十年后的来信

现在是2030年
It’s 2030
又是一个早春三月
Another early spring
此刻，窗外晨光初露
At this moment, rays of morning light are shining through the window
早樱已缀上枝头，远望如雪
Cherry blossoms look like snow
正如十年前大家常说的那样
As everyone said ten years ago
没有一个冬天不可逾越
There is no insurmountable winter
又一个春天，如约而至
Another spring has come as expected

这十年来
In the past ten years
时常回望那段 武汉被按下暂停键的日子
I often look back at the days when Wuhan’s pause button was pressed
一段 让人忽然长大的日子
Days when we suddenly grew up

我记得那些逝去的生命
I remember those lost lives
那些深夜里无声的哭泣
And the silent sobbing on late nights
在那个冬天
In that winter
我一下子懂得
It dawned on me
原来，人会如此脆弱
That human beings can be so fragile
原来，失去可以来得这么急
That losses can happen so fast

我也记得那些英雄的背影
I also remember the backs of those heroes
逆着人流的方向行进
Going against the human flow
匆忙，却坚毅
Hurriedly, but with resolution
但那段日子 我才发现
I realized in those days
英雄与浪漫无关
That heroes have nothing to do with romance
他们只是在被需要的时候
站了出来，走向前去
They just step forward when needed

我更记得那段日子
I remember better the footprints those days have left
在历史长河中留下的印记
On the long history of humankind
一场危机到来
When a crisis comes
既有“山川异域，风月同天”的情谊
There is not only friendship that transcends borders
也曾有歧视与冷漠的伤害
But also harm caused by discrimination and apathy
但没关系
But it doesn’t matter
有一点已被时间证明
One thing has been proven by time
中国的牺牲、努力和贡献
China’s sacrifices, efforts and contributions
护卫了家园
Protected its homeland
也为世界赢得了经验
And gained experience for the world

人，真的可以在一夜之间长大
A person can really grow up overnight
生与死
Life and death
苦与乐
Bitterness and happiness
求真 敬畏
Truth and awe
责任 坚守
Responsibility and persistence
奋斗 希望
Struggle and hope
这些好像很遥远的词
These seemingly distant words
都在那段日子 变得无比真切 清晰
Became indescribably real and clear in those days.

后来的十年里
In the next ten years
我走过许多地方
I’ve traveled to many places
为了 不负成长 不负期望
In order to grow and to live up to expectations
世界也在前行 朝着更好的方向
The world is also advancing, in a better direction
敬畏自然 尊重生命
With awe for nature and respect for life
医学进步 科技昌明
Medical science is progressing and technology flourishing
这个星球上
On this planet
友善变得更多 冷漠在减少
Friendliness has been growing and apathy declining

因此，今天的我
Therefore, today
很想对十年前的你说一声谢谢
I would like to say “thank you” to the you from ten years ago
谢谢你在焦虑与恐惧中没有轻言放弃
Thank you for not giving up in anxiety and fear!
谢谢你在远离校园时没有让光阴溜走
Thank you for not letting your time slip away while being far away from campus!

谢谢你在苦难中始终相信光亮
Thank you for always believing in light when facing hardships!
更谢谢你从“武汉的孩子”，
向着“中国的少年、世界的少年”倔强生长
Thank you for having grown strongly from “a child of Wuhan” into “a teen of China” and “a teen of the World”!

有人说
Some say
瀑布之所以成为奇观，
Waterfalls are wonders
是因为它有绝处求生的勇气
Because they have the courage to survive a dire situation
人生，又何尝不是如此
Life is in no way different
因此
So
请你一定一定相信
Please, please believe
你所经历的一切
Everything you have gone through
都会变成有意义的生长
Will become meaningful growth
2020年你所经历的一切，
已经融入未来，
改变人生的走向
Everything you experienced in 2020 has been integ
