人生必读的十首英文诗
01 The Rainy Day
The day is cold, and dark, and dreary;
It rains, and the wind is never weary;
The vine still clings to the moldering wall,
But at every gust the dead leaves fall,
And the day is dark and dreary.
It rains, and the wind is never weary;
The vine still clings to the moldering wall,
But at every gust the dead leaves fall,
And the day is dark and dreary.
My life is cold and dark and dreary;
It rains and the wind is never weary;
My thought still cling to the moldering past,
But the hopes of youth fall thick in the blast,
And the days are dark and dreary.
It rains and the wind is never weary;
My thought still cling to the moldering past,
But the hopes of youth fall thick in the blast,
And the days are dark and dreary.
Be still, sad heart! And cease repining;
Behind the clouds is the sun still shining;
Thy fate is the common fate of all,
Into each life some rain must fall,
Some days must be dark and dreary.
Thy fate is the common fate of all,
Into each life some rain must fall,
Some days must be dark and dreary.
02 What Is a Dad?
A Dad is a person
Who is loving and kind
And often he knows
What you have on your mind

03 The New Year
Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky,
The flying cloud, the frosty light:
The year is dying in the night;
Ring out, wild bells, and let him die.

04 Long, Long Ago
Winds through the olive trees
Softly did blow,
Round little Bethlehem
Long, long ago.

Round little Bethlehem

Sheep on the hillside lay
Whiter than snow;
Shepherds were watching them,
Long, long ago.

Then from the happy sky,
Angels bent low,
Singing their songs of joy,
Long, long ago.

For in a manger bed,
Cradled we know,
Christ came to Bethlehem,
Cradled we know,
Christ came to Bethlehem,
05 The White Christmas
I'm dreaming of the white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know.
The tree tops glisten and children
Listen to hear sleigh-bells in the snow.
Just like the ones I used to know.
The tree tops glisten and children
Listen to hear sleigh-bells in the snow.
I'm dreaming of the white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write.

And may all your Christmases be white.
And may all your Christmases be white.

But sometimes sad.

07 I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud
I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed---and gazed---but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
08 Love is Like Magic

and it always will be,

And there's nothing in life
that love cannot change!

While staring at his picture, and the roses sitting there.

Then, went to get the telephone to call the florist shop.
The owner answered and she asked him if he would explain,
Why would someone do this to her, causing her such pain?
