编者按

雪，总是被寄予厚望。人们用最优美的词汇赞美它，称它是纯洁无暇的小仙女、梦幻王国里的小精灵；人们把最美好的祝愿许给它，让它成为预兆丰年的幸运使者，造就温馨浪漫的童话世界。想必雪也不曾料到，它会有这么多动人的名字。

雪花早已在剑桥落下，北京前不久也下了2021年的第一场雪。我们的老朋友，也是诗歌爱好者雷风云先生，带着对新春的祝福和对未来的期许，在雪后的音乐之都维也纳写下了诗歌《雪花迎新曲》。

2016年，当时在伦敦工作的雷风云先生曾携夫人一起来到剑桥徐志摩诗歌艺术节的开幕式参与读诗会和艺术展，与麦克法兰教授相谈甚欢。在这次云上读诗会上，二人将隔空合作，分别朗诵《雪花迎新曲》的中英文双语版本。

雪花迎新曲

雷风云

朗诵：雷风云

前天，北京喜降一场纷纷扬扬的瑞雪，
将紫禁城化作了一派梦幻般的景象；
维也纳的冬雪，
也越过重重的山峦和蓝色多瑙河，                 
为金色大厅披上了一件节日的盛装；
哦，雪花，亲爱的朋友，
你从哪里来，
纯洁浪漫，晶莹剔透，
将我的家乡打扮得分外妖娆？
你又到哪里去，
舞姿曼妙，巧手翻飞，
一夜间将他的家乡银装素裹？

雪花你也有名字吗？
有人夸你是冬天美丽的童话，
有人喻你是北国可爱的精灵，
有人说你像春天的万树梨花，
有人形容你是预兆丰年的幸运使者；
你年复一年不辞辛劳莅临人间，                                                                   
成为小朋友和滑雪者们的挚爱；
孩子们总是俏皮地说，
你是雪人的笑脸、胖肚、长鼻子，
还为你准备好了顶风御寒的瓜皮帽，
和鲜艳夺目、震慑疫魔的红围巾；
冬运健儿们却喜滋滋地驾驭起滑雪板和雪橇，
穿行在迷人的林海雪原之间，
将欢声笑语洒满整个山谷。

雪落燕山、长城，雪落青松、腊梅，
雪落维也纳森林，雪落美泉宫、霍夫堡，
你们用独特的语言，
一边吟诵着唐代诗人高岑的豪迈诗篇，
“借问梅花何处落，风吹一夜满关山”
一边又用天籁般的嗓音，
演绎出音乐之邦美妙深情的悠扬金曲
“雪绒花，雪绒花，每天清晨问候我”，
你们在图书馆、小学校、博物馆的窗前驻足，
羡慕着欧亚经典丰富的科学奥妙， 
欣赏着东西文明诱人的诗情画意，
也许悟还出了一些
人类勇于创造、生生不息的秘诀。

哦，雪花，亲爱的朋友，
你总在冒着冷冽寒风、
不知疲倦地走啊走、飞啊飞，
你在原野，你在山巅，
你在耳畔，你在心间；           
你在秦岭黄河和泰山南岳，
你在阿尔卑斯山和因斯布鲁克，
你在珠穆朗玛和北极冰原，
你在“丝绸之路”和“茶马古道”。
你们亲密互助，携手前行，
吟唱着祝福节日的歌谣，
抒发着幸福祥和的芬芳；       
造就了滋润群山的甘泉，
留下了肥沃原野的养分。

哦，雪花，亲爱的朋友，
我也愿插上你六角形的翅膀，
化作一片小小的你；                 
去追随你的梦想，
找寻你的家乡，
加盟你们的合唱，
参与你们的对话；                       
与你们一路高歌、奋勇前行，                 
将你的家乡、我的家乡和他们的家乡， 
都装点得更加美丽、和谐、富裕、安康，
北京，上海，崇礼，长白山，
维也纳，萨尔茨堡，圣安东，哈尔施塔特，
天涯，海角，人间，
云乡，梦里，未来··· 

—— 献给充满希望的2021年。向剑桥各位老师、朋友致以最亲切、最美好的新年祝福！

Welcoming the New Year with Snowflakes

      by Lei Fengyun

Recited by Professor Alan Macfarlane

The day before yesterday, fluttering snow of good omen fell in Beijing,

Transformed the Forbidden City into a magical scene;

The winter snow in Vienna,

Also crossed the mountains and the blue Dunabe,

Clothed the golden hall in a magnificent festive costume;

O, snowflakes, my dear friends,

Where are you from?

You are so pure and romantic, crystal clear,

You dressed up my hometown and gave it glamour.

Where are you going?

You dance with elegance, your skilful hands twist and turn.

You put a silver outfit on his hometown to give it allure.

Snowflakes, do you have a name?

Some praise you as a beautiful fairy tale in winter,

Some compare you to the sweet spirit of the north,

Some say you are like the pear blossom

On a thousand trees in spring,

Some say you are a messenger of good luck

Auguring a prosperous year;

You visit the human world year after year,

You become the true love of children and ice-skaters;

Children speak you with joy,

You are the snowmen’s smiling faces, fat tummies and long noses,

They bring a landlord hat to protect you from freezing wind and cold

And a bright red scarf, to scare plague devils away;

The happy winter swimmers steer their skis and sleighs,

Running through the sea of forests and the fields of snow,

Spreading the happy laughter and chatter through the valley.

The snow fell on the Yan Mountain, the Great Wall

The snow fell on the green pine trees and winter plum blossom,

The snow fell in the Vienna forests

The snow fell on the Palaces of Schönbrunn and Hofburg,

You speak your secret language,

Reciting the poem of the Tang Dynasty poet GAO Cen,

‘Where is the plum blossom falling?

It covers the Guan Mountain after the night winds’,

Singing with the voice of nature,

Interpreting the emotion of the nation of music’s melodious golden song,

‘Edelweiss, edelweiss, every morning you greet me’,

You set before the windows of the libraries, the schools and the museums,

Admiring the rich scientific theory of European and Asian classics,

Appreciating the appeal of the poetic sentiment and picturesque scenes of East and West,

Perhaps also perceiving some

Mysteries of the brave creativity and lasting life of the human race.

O, dear snowflakes, my dear friends,

You walk and run tirelessly through the chilly wind,

You are in the wild places, you are atop the mountains,

You are before our eyes, you are in the middle of our hearts;

You are on the Qin Ridge, the Yellow River, the Tai Mountain and the South Mountain,

You are in the Alps and in Innsbruck

You are on Mount Everest and the ice of the North Pole,

You are on the ‘Silk Road’ and the ‘Old ways of Tea and Horses’.

You work in unison, move forward hand in hand,

Singing songs of festive blessings,

Giving off the fragrance of happiness and tranquillity;

You create the sweet spring to irrigate the mountain ranges,

You leave your nutrients to fertilise the wild fields.

O, snowflakes, my dear friends,

I would like to don your hexagonal wings,

To become a small piece of you;

To follow your dream,

To look for your hometown,

To join your chorus,

To take part in your conversation;

I will sing loudly with you all along, march forward bravely,

To decorate your hometown, my hometown, their hometowns,

To make them more beautiful, harmonious, prosperous and peaceful,

Beijing, Shanghai, Chongli, the Changbai Mountains,

Vienna, Salzburg, St Anton, Hallstatt,

The winter polar,  the far ends of the world, the human paradise.

The home of clouds, the dreamland,, the brighter future …
