你是遥遥的路
山野大雾里的灯
我是孩童啊走在你的眼眸
你是明月清风
我是你照拂的梦
见与不见都一生与你相拥
而我将爱你所爱的人间
愿你所愿的笑颜
你的手我蹒跚在牵
请带我去明天
如果说你曾苦过我的甜
我愿活成你的愿
愿不枉啊愿勇往啊
这盛世每一天
你是岁月长河
星火燃起的天空
我是仰望者就把你唱成歌
你是我之所来
也是我心之所归
世间所有路都将与你相逢

可是你如愿的眺望
孩子们啊安睡梦乡
像你深爱的那样
而我将梦你所梦的团圆
愿你所愿的永远
走你所走的长路
这样的爱你啊
我也将见你未见的世界
写你未写的诗篇
天边的月心中的念
你永在我身边
与你相约一生清澈
如你年轻的脸

中文歌《如愿》 Chinese song <Having your wishes fulfilled> （Advanced level）

「どうも腹が空いた。さっきから横っ腹が痛くてたまらないんだ。」
「ぼくもそうだ。もうあんまりあるきたくないな。」
「あるきたくないよ。ああ困ったなあ、何かたべたいなあ。」
「喰たべたいもんだなあ」
　二人の紳士は、ざわざわ鳴るすすきの中で、こんなことを云(い)ました。
　その時ふとうしろを見ますと、立派な一軒いっけんの西洋造りの家がありました。
　そして玄関(げんかん)には
西洋料理店
山猫軒
という札がでていました。
「君、ちょうどいい。ここはこれでなかなか開けてるんだ。入ろうじゃないか」
「おや、こんなとこにおかしいね。しかしとにかく何か食事ができるんだろう」
「もちろんできるさ。看板にそう書いてあるじゃないか」
「はいろうじゃないか。ぼくはもう何か喰べたくて倒れそうなんだ。」
　二人は玄関に立ちました。玄関は白い瀬戸(せと)の煉瓦(れんが)で組んで、実に立派なもんです。
　そして硝子(がらす)の開き戸がたって、そこに金文字でこう書いてありました。
「どなたもどうかお入りください。決してご遠慮(えんりょ)はありません」
　二人はそこで、ひどくよろこんで言(い)ました。
「こいつはどうだ、やっぱり世の中はうまくできてるねえ、きょう一日なんぎしたけれど、こんどはこんないいこともある。このうちは料理店だけれどもただでご馳走(ちそう)するんだぜ。」
「どうもそうらしい。決してご遠慮はありませんというのはその意味だ。」
　二人は戸を押おして、なかへ入りました。そこはすぐ廊下(ろうか)になっていました。その硝子戸の裏側には、金文字でこうなっていました。
「ことに肥(ふと)ったお方や若いお方は、大歓迎(だいかんげい)いたします」
　二人は大歓迎というので、もう大よろこびです。
「君、ぼくらは大歓迎にあたっているのだ。」
「ぼくらは両方兼ねてるから」

Kenji Miyazawa :THE RESTAURANT OF MANY ORDERS #2

Aviator Races to Photograph the World's Glaciers
Garrett Fisher is traveling the world in his little blue-white "Super Cub" airplane, as he tries to document every remaining glacier on Earth.

The 41-year-old Fisher does it for a simple reason: "Because I love them."

However, he does it for another purpose too — the climate is changing, and the planet's glaciers are melting. Fisher believes documenting, archiving, and remembering these changes is important.

According to Fisher, the melting glaciers are the first indication that we're losing something because of climate change. "In 100 or 200 years, most of them will be gone," he says.

That's why Fisher is building an archive of his glacier photos. He believes any record he makes before the glaciers melt could be very valuable to future generations.

In 2021, Fisher started the Global Glacier Initiative, an organization to support and show his work, and he plans to open his archive to the public for research.

Many glaciers are hard to get to or photograph — so Fisher has to make some dangerous journeys. Why does he do it?

He's looking for the perfect picture; one so beautiful it can make people and policymakers act. And if one image isn't enough, then maybe a whole archive will make people come and look, get close and pay attention.

"We can live without [glaciers]. We will live without them," Fisher says. "However, it hurts us to lose them."
