鸟的迁徙：关于承诺的故事

【作者】这样好的夜晚北极燕鸥就要离开自己甚至还未熟悉的家乡，跟着亲人们一起飞过大约一万八千公里，到达南极的浮冰区过冬。来年的春天，它们又一定会匆匆启程，飞越非洲西海岸，飞越北大西洋，再度回到自己出生的地方。北极燕鸥的候鸟，来自不同大陆，相聚是为了分开；它们的后代从没有预习，也不用探路，便能开始生命中的第一次远足，最后准确抵达。《鸟的迁徙》讲述的，就是这些候鸟们一次完整的迁徙，一次伟大的飞翔。

我有些不知道该怎么向你讲述我所目睹的这一切。我的飞翔始于那只被网缠住的灰尾雁，在小男孩为它剪开网眼之后，它就带着脚上的网绳，追向自己的伙伴。我们一起掠过宁静的湖面和金黄色的麦田，穿过桥洞和引水渠，飞过丛林、沼泽、自由女神像和艾菲尔铁塔。向北，向北，飞往熟悉而陌生的家乡。迁徙是一个关于承诺的故事。其实这甚至不能算一个故事，我只是喜欢“承诺”这个词而已。明天我将飞翔，历尽艰难险阻，万里行程，只为再回到你的身边。多么文艺。

To Be By Your Side

Through valleys so still we dare not breathe, To be by your side.

Through howling winds and driving rains, To be by your side.

I cannot explain this, Dear, I will not even try.

Across the borders that divide forests of stone standing petrified,

I cannot explain this, Dear, I will not even try.

For tonight I will be by your side. But tomorrow I will fly.

Through the frontiers of your sleep.

Across the endless wilderness where all the beasts bow down their heads.

Every mile and every year, Time and Distance disappear I cannot explain this.

For I know one thing, Love comes on a wing and tonight I will be by your side.

But tomorrow I will fly, Tomorrow I will fly, Tomorrow I will fly.
