無妨forever young

昨日秘書節,同學老師一起請兩位秘書午膳,正是學校像個小社會,學校像個大家庭。坐在一位老師身旁,說起學期完了,她問為甚麼現在的學生,總是要到限期最後一天才交功課,一時答不上,我說自問也不算懶惰,但過往的功課都是最後一天兼最後一刻才完成。

或許是,我們用電腦做功課的一代,就算閉門在家,但接上了網,覆覆電郵、看看Facebook、聽聽音樂、玩玩MSN,非到最後關頭,也捨不得謝絕一切網上應酬。

忽然興起,搜搜看看一輪Bob Dylan,又是近黃昏。

年青的Dylan唱Blowing in the Wind,老去的Dylan唱Forever Young。

只要趕及deadline,無妨forever young。




How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many years must a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, 'n' how many years and some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, 'n' how many times must a man turn his head,
Pretending he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.





May God bless and keep you always,
May your wishes all come true,
May you always do for others
And let others do for you.
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.

May you grow up to be righteous,
May you grow up to be true,
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you.
May you always be courageous,
Stand upright and be strong,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.

May your hands always be busy,
May your feet always be swift,
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift.
May your heart always be joyful,
May your song always be sung,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.
