    面向大海,春暖花开

      从明天起, 做一个幸福的人
    喂马, 劈柴, 周游世界
    从明天起, 关心粮食和蔬菜
    我有一所房子, 面朝大海, 春暖花开

    从明天起, 和每一个亲人通信
    告诉他们我的幸福
    那幸福的闪电告诉我的
    我将告诉每一个人

    给每一条河每一座山取一个温暖的名字
    陌生人, 我也为你祝福
    愿你有一个灿烂的前程
    愿你有情人终成眷属
    愿你在尘世获的幸福
    我只愿面朝大海, 春暖花开

    一个法国论坛上的中国诗

    撇开政治不谈,这个帖子的argument还是非常有说服力的

    原文:

    What do you want from us?

    When we were called “sick man of Asia”, we were called peril.
    When we billed to be the next superpower, we re called the threat

    When we closed our doors, you smuggled drugs to open markets.
    when we embrace free trade, you blame us for taking away your jobs.

    when we re falling apart, you marched in your troops and wanted your fair share.
    when we re putting the broken pieces together, “Free T*b*t” you screamed!
    “it was invasion.”

    So we tried communism, you hated us for being communist.
    So we embraced capitalism, you hate us for being capitalist,

    Then we have a billion people, you said we re destroying the planet.
    Then we limit our numbers, you said it was human rights abuses.

    When we were poor, you think we re dogs,
    When we loan you cash, you blamed us for your debts.

    When we build our industries, you called us polluters.
    When we sell you goods, you blamed us for global warming,
    When we buy oil, you called that exploitation and genocide.

    When we were lost in chaos and rampage, you wanted rule s of laws for us.
    When we uphold law and order against violence, you called that violation of human rights.

    When we were silent, you said you want us to have free speech.
    When we were silent no more, you say we were brainwashed.

    Why do you hate us so much? We asked. “No”. You answered, “we don t hate you”.
    We don t hate you either Bud, do you understand us?? “of course we do”, you said, “We have CNN, BBC, and CBC”.

    But why, we still feel, your western people are not happy with us.
    What do you really want from us??
