Friendship

Guidance for Reciting

No friendship,no life;but there is no easy road to friendship,which always needs to be sowed with loyalty,irrigated with enthusiasm,trained under principles and cared with understanding.

May our friendship be not like the tides,―

Tides rise,tides fall.

May it be like the ocean.

Whose face may show smile,frown,or anger,

But whose heart is at bottom unchanging.

May our friendship be not like the flower,―

Flowers bloom,flowers fade.

May it be like grass and trees,

Their leaves may wither,

but their roots live long.

May our friendship be not like the Moon,―

The moon waxes,it also wanes.

May it be like the stars.

They appear or do not appear in the sky,

But always exist with mysterious light.

友情

诵读导言

人生离不开友谊,但要得到真正的友谊是不容易的;友谊总需要忠诚去播种,用热情去灌溉,用原则去培养,用谅解去呵护。

但愿我们的友情不似潮汐,

潮起还有潮落。

但愿它更像那大海:

海面时而现出微笑,时而阴霾,时而暴怒,

可它的心在深深的海底,却始终如一。

但愿我们的友情不似花朵,

花开还有花谢。

但愿它更像那青草和树木:

叶儿会凋零,

可它们的根却有长久的生命。

但愿我们的友情不似月亮,

月有阴晴圆缺。

但愿它更像那繁星:

它们在夜空里时现时隐,

可它们那神秘的光芒却亘古永存。
