初相遇
              -----席慕蓉

我喜欢那样的梦
在梦里 一切都可以重新开始
一切都可以慢慢解释
心里甚至还能感觉到所有被浪费的时光
竟然都能重回时的狂喜和感激

站在黄昏中的卡尔顿山，离玫瑰色的云雾最近的地方，痴痴地瞭望。我倾尽此生韶华，只为与你初次相遇。山雾摇曳着远方的风笛声，温柔而和缓地迎面拂过，滋润着异乡人的心扉。这座小城，氤氲成了一幅绝美的情画。

仿佛是有灵魂的，向你诉说着百年的沧桑。爱丁堡的厚重从来不会让人感到沉闷，沿途路过的精致别墅，黑栅栏，白窗棂，五彩花篮使人沉浸在无限遐想中。中世纪的鹅卵石古道，纵横交错。英式的红色电话亭矗立街头，而色彩同样鲜亮的双层观光巴士，在以黑灰色调为主的城市背景里，婉约成了一曲断章。沿Royal  Mile走过去，看到一个瘦削的男人，手持竖琴，坐在路边，双手抚动琴弦。花白的头发垂肩，晚风时常从他的发间和琴弦之间穿过。琴声轻柔、灵巧，在空气中流淌。此刻，时间为他静止，仿佛伸手就可以触摸到音符。

流年未央，经年未忘 。作为异乡的学子，些许迷茫，不知所措，这座城市的美却吞噬了一切忧伤。缱绻的夜色，微醺了时间的沉香，朦胧的月色环抱着山脚下的这座小城，远处的大海又沉沉地睡去……

Standing on Calton hill,  I spend all of my life waiting just for this meeting with you.   The winds, the fog, slowly and softly touching my face and pulling my heart strings.  These things became just the perfect picture of this city.

Edinburgh, this historical city never lets you feel bored with her soul.  Passing by those beautiful buildings makes your imagination run out of control.  The traditional cobblestone road and the colourful tour bus compose a lovely song around the city.  Looking down the Royal Mile, there is an old man playing a harp.; the music and surroundings combine to create a dream like atmosphere where time seems to slow down and even stop.

The time passes quickly, as a foreign student.  I may feel confused and may get lost, but the beauty of this city just takes all of my worries away.  The city slows down with the dark blue night, Arthurs Seat illuminated by the moon and the sea sparkles in the distance; until tomorrow.
