[原创双语诗文] 人类的悲哀 the ruth of human being

[William Zhou周道模]

The Ruth of Human Being


The history of civilization is very long and very proud to each personal life, but after all human being is still in his childhood if we look through his history of living. Human being now is having mournful mistakes just like each person does in his childhood.
Wars are the lowclass and bloody crimes which human being has been lasting for thousands of years. It’s the appetence for wild animals to injure the different kind of life. But human being slaughters the same kind of his own, just due to the different ideas of cultural values or going after one’s country advantages. Just because of the infantility of childhood, as soon as the new science technology has been invented, some people will use it to make weapons. Even religions can be used to defend those who belong to one’s own faction and attack those who don’t, used to plunge people into an abyss of misery, such as the marching of the Crusades to the east.
In the battlefield where bombs fall like rain, in the battlefield
where buildings fall down and bridges are broken, in the battlefield where people die like the burning grass, who is cheering for his own expedience? Who is drinking to his own battle achievements? At the time when the country is broken and the refugees are as many as the grasshoppers, can any international orgernizations or any other countries prevent the happening of human being’s calamity?
How many years will it take for human being to step out of the truculent and mournful childhood?

人 类 的 悲 哀
周 道 模

对个体生命来讲，文明史已经很悠久很自豪了；但就生存史来说，人类毕竟还处于童年期。就像每个人童年时都要犯错误一样，人类也正在犯着悲哀的错误。
战争是人类延续了几千上万年低级残忍的罪过。野兽伤害异类是出自生存的本能。而人类却残害同类，只是因为文化价值观的差异或追求所谓的国家利益。正因为童年似的幼稚，新的科学技术一经发明，就有人用来制造武器。甚至宗教都可党同伐异、涂炭生灵，如十字军的东征……
在弹如雨下、楼倒桥断、命似草焚的战地，谁在为一己私利和战功而干杯？在国破家亡、难民如蝗的时刻，哪有什么国际组织或国家能够阻止人类灾难的发生？
还要多少年，人类才能走过这野蛮、悲哀的童蒙期？
