浪淘沙 · 又到三藩
浪淘沙 · 又到三藩
轉眼來美已經第十八年，我從當年青春躁動、似乎無限選擇的中國心內科醫生，成了現在放下一切、波瀾不驚的美國病理醫生。當年帶我第一次來三藩開會的老闆早已仙逝，同窗好友也天各一方。故鄉越來越遠，歸宿卻越來越近。滄海桑田，人生如夢，似浪淘沙，似水東流。
往事似雲煙，又到三藩，
金門橋上莫憑闌。
記得當年談笑處，夢裡嬋娟。
聚散總隨緣，無盡悲歡，
青春難繫寸心安。
此生但隨江海去，逝者如川。

To San Francisco, Once Again
Eighteen years have passed since I first arrived in America. The restless young cardiologist from China, convinced that life offered endless possibilities, has quietly become a pathologist who has learned to let many things go. The mentor who first brought me to San Francisco for a medical conference is no longer here, and classmates who once shared the same dreams now live scattered across the world. My homeland seems farther away with every passing year, yet my eternal home draws ever nearer. Seas become fields, fields return to seas; life slips by like waves smoothing the sand, like a river flowing endlessly toward the ocean.
Years vanish softly, like mist on the bay;
I cross the Golden Gate, then turn away.
The smiles we shared still linger on in dreams;
Friends drift apart like stars beyond the streams.
My homeland fades; my truer home draws near—
The river flows, and leaves no yesterday here.
I cross the Golden Gate, then turn away.
The smiles we shared still linger on in dreams;
Friends drift apart like stars beyond the streams.
My homeland fades; my truer home draws near—
The river flows, and leaves no yesterday here.
