給中國的一封信

［ 巴基斯坦 ］ 謝麗 北京師范大學(xué)

親愛(ài)的中國：

你還好嗎？

離開(kāi)你已經(jīng)有一年四個(gè)月零五天了，擔心你快要把我給忘了，于是我提起筆，想要給你寫(xiě)一封信。

回想起當時(shí)剛到中國時(shí)，我常常因為思念家人而在夜里哭泣，而就在此時(shí)，我卻因為思念你流下了淚水。我想，這是一樣的感情吧，在我的心里，你早已變成了家人，變成了我的一部分。離開(kāi)你，或是割舍掉這份感情，我都是無(wú)法承受的。

在我的生命中，有很多第一次，都是你陪我度過(guò)的。第一次坐飛速的火車(chē)，第一次騎街頭的共享自行車(chē)，第一次爬上風(fēng)景秀麗的高山，第一次在海灘上縱情奔跑，第一次站在舞臺上高聲演講，第一次談戀愛(ài)……

我不曾告訴你，我一直想對你道一聲“謝謝”，謝謝你的鼓勵，謝謝你的陪伴，謝謝你給我的勇氣和溫暖。

你還記得嗎？每次買(mǎi)東西的時(shí)候，如果售貨員不愿意減價(jià)，我就會(huì )帶著(zhù)一點(diǎn)悲傷的表情說(shuō)：“我是巴基斯坦人，是你們的‘巴鐵’。”然后他會(huì )給我實(shí)在的價(jià)格。還有在魯磨路上的那對夫婦，他們是多么的熱心，無(wú)論他們有空或是忙著(zhù)接待顧客，只要我經(jīng)過(guò)那里，都要打招呼。這些甜蜜的回憶都是你陪著(zhù)我經(jīng)歷過(guò)的。

謝麗（左一）與漢語(yǔ)老師

和你在一起的時(shí)光，是我一生中最快樂(lè )的時(shí)光，我不僅見(jiàn)證了你的發(fā)展，你也看到了我的點(diǎn)滴進(jìn)步。人們常說(shuō)“光陰似箭”，在我看來(lái)，美好的日子才是最快的。還沒(méi)來(lái)得及好好地感受這份美好，我就跟你分開(kāi)了。誰(shuí)知道這種冠狀病毒會(huì )如此頑強。但你從不放棄，全世界都目睹了你如何與冠狀病毒作戰。世界很驚訝你是如何應對這場(chǎng)危機的。尊敬的中國！在我27年的生活中，我從未見(jiàn)過(guò)如此勇敢和強大的國家。我感覺(jué)你的勝利就是每個(gè)愛(ài)中國的老外的勝利。對我來(lái)說(shuō)，你是無(wú)與倫比的。

現在的我，在我的國家，雖然身邊有家人朋友的陪伴，有熟悉的生活環(huán)境，卻少了你的溫度。每次坐地鐵時(shí)，我的耳畔都會(huì )縈繞著(zhù)武漢二號線(xiàn)的親切提醒。當我買(mǎi)東西時(shí)，總不自覺(jué)地想問(wèn)問(wèn)老板：你有支付寶嗎？當我游覽這邊的風(fēng)景名勝時(shí)，總忍不住要給身邊的朋友介紹你的大好河山……

親愛(ài)的中國，你可別驕傲，你今天所有的成就都是中國人民一點(diǎn)一滴奮斗出來(lái)的，而且我堅信，以后還會(huì )有我的力量，還會(huì )有很多外國朋友的努力。你的淵博，你的廣大，你的雄偉都一直吸引著(zhù)我，讓我無(wú)法抗拒你的魅力。

最后我想對中國說(shuō)：

你是一杯茶，清新淡雅，卻沁人心脾，回味無(wú)窮；

你是一陣風(fēng)，無(wú)論春夏，還是秋冬，你吹過(guò)的地方，都綻放了笑容；

你是一首歌，行云流水，扣人心弦，總讓我夢(mèng)中都心事重重；

你是一幅畫(huà)，在我心中，所有的顏色都勝過(guò)了天邊絢麗的彩虹。

你是我無(wú)與倫比的回憶和過(guò)往，更是我前所未有的寄托和夢(mèng)想。

這次你一定會(huì )陪我去哈爾濱看冰雪大世界。希望我很快就能夠回到中國。

親愛(ài)的，等我回來(lái)！

你最真誠的朋友：謝麗

A Letter to China

［Pakistan］ Nourin Haneef， Beijing Normal University

Dear China，

How are you？

It has been one year， four months and five days since l left you． I am afraid that you are forgetting me． Therefore， I decide to write a letter to you．

When I first came to China， I often cried at night because I missed my family so much． However， now I shed my tears because I miss you， China． I believe they are of the same emotion． You have become one of my family and one part of my life already． I cannot bear leaving you or discarding this love to you．

Many of my “first times” happened in China， my first time to take a high－speed train， my first time to ride a shared bike in streets， my first time to climb a beautiful mountain， my first time to run randomly on a sea beach， my first time to deliver a speech on a stage and my first time of falling in love… I have always meant to say “thanks” to you， thanks for your encouragement， thanks for your company and thanks for the courage and warmth you have been giving me．

Do you remember that I would say in sadness that I was from Pakistan if shop assistants were reluctant to reduce price for me when I was shopping？ Hearing this， they always gave me the rock－bottom price （Pakistan is one of the closest friends of Chinese）． The couple on Lumo road were warm and passionate． They greeted me every time I passed by no matter how busy they were． I experienced all these sweet memories with you．

Time with you was the happiest in my life． I witnessed your development and you saw with your own eyes every step forward I made． People often say time flies． To me， sweet days fly quickest． I had to part from you before I fully enjoyed all the sweetness． We did not expect that the COVID－19 virus was so persistent． However， you never gave up． All the world has witnessed how you fought fiercely against the virus． The world was surprised by the way you dealt with the crisis． My respectable China！ In my 27－year life， I have never seen a nation so brave and powerful． Your victory was the victory of the foreign friends who also love China． You are unrivalled to me！

Now in my own country I live with my family and friends and I have my familiar life． However， I miss your warmth． Every time I take the subway now， I will recall the familiar voice of Wuhan Metro Line 2． I always want to ask if they have Alipay when I go shopping． I always cannot help telling people how beautiful you are when I go sightseeing．

Dear China， don’t be too proud of yourself． You need to remember that all your achievements come from the hard work of the Chinese people． I believe I will also contribute my efforts to your development in the future and so will many other foreigners． Your erudition， your broadness and your magnificence have been attracting me and I cannot resist your charm．

Finally， I want to say to China：

You are a cup of tea， fresh and fragrant， leaving traces of remembrance in my memories．

You are a breeze， blowing everywhere into blossom no matter it is in spring， summer， autumn or winter．

You are a song， like flowing water， natural and enchanting， echoing in my dreams．

You are a painting whose colors are brighter than the most brilliant rainbow．

You are my unrivalled bygones and memories， and what’s more， you are my unprecedented hopes and dreams．

I hope to go back to China soon and you must accompany me to Harbin Ice and Snow World．

Dear China， wait for me and I will be back soon！

Yours sincerely， Xie Li
