It was New Year's Night.An aged man was standing at a window.He raised his mournful eyes towards the deep blue sky,where the stars were floating like white lilies on the surface of a clear calm lake.Then he cast them on the earth,where few more hopeless people than himself now moved towards their certain goal——the tomb.He had already passed sixty of the stages leading to it,and he had brought from his journey nothing but errors and remorse.Now his health was poor,his mind vacant,his heart sorrowful,and his old age short of comforts.
The days of his youth appeared like dreams before him,and he recalled the serious moment when his father placed him at the entrance of the two roads——one leading to a peaceful,sunny place,covered with flowers,fruits and resounding with soft,sweet songs; the other leading to a deep,dark cave,which was endless,where poison flowed instead of water and where devils and poisonous snakes hissed and crawled.
He looked towards the sky and cried painfully,"Oh youth,return!Oh my father,place me once more at the entrance to life,and I'll choose the better way!" But both his father and the days of his youth had passed away.
He was the lights flowing away in the darkness.These were the days of his wasted life; he saw a star fall from the sky and disappeared,and this was the symbol of himself.His remorse,which was like a sharp arrow,struck deeply into his heart.Then he remembered his friends in his childhood,who entered on life together with him.But they had made their way to success and were now honoured and happy on this New Year's night.
The clock in the high church tower struck and the sound made him remember his parents' early love for him.They had taught him and prayed to God for his good.But he chose the wrong way.With shame and grief he dared no longer look towards that heaven where his father live.His darkened eyes were full of tears,and with a despairing effort,he burst out a cry:"Come back,my early days!Come back!"
And his youth did return,for all this was only a dream which he had on New Year's Night.He was still young though his faults were real; he had not yet entered the deep,dark cave,and he was still free to walk on the road which leads to the peaceful and sunny land.
Those who still linger on the entrance of life,hesitating to choose the bright road,remember that when years are passed and your feet stumble on the dark mountains,you will cry bitterly,but in vain:"O youth,return!Oh give me back my early days!"

在那里,星星像平静湖面上的百合花一样在漂浮
那是一个新年的夜晚.一个上了年纪的男人站在窗户边上.他抬起双眼悲哀的 望着深蓝的天空,在那里星星像平静湖面上的百合花一样浮动.然后他向地上望去,那里有很多比他更绝望的人正在走向他们最终的目的地——坟墓.他已经在通往死亡的路上走了60年,而且他在他的旅途中之收获了过失和悔恨.现在他的身体虚弱,他的思想空虚,他的心里充满了悲伤,他的老年时代缺少舒适.
年轻时代的生活像梦一样出现在他面前.他回想起了那个重要的时刻,他的父亲把他放在两条路的入口——一条通向一个平静,充满阳光的地方,到处都是鲜花水果,回响着温柔而甜蜜的歌声；另一条路却通向一个又深又黑、没有尽头洞穴,那里流淌的不是水而是毒液,那里有发出嘶嘶声的魔鬼和毒蛇到处爬行.
他望向天空痛哭起来,“青春啊,回来!我的父亲,在把我放到生活得入口吧,我会选择更好的一条!”但是他的父亲和年轻的日子都已经消失了.
他浪费掉的生命就像黑暗中的等一样流走.他看到一颗星星从天空中消失,那就是他自己的象征.他的悔恨像一把利箭,深深地插进他的心脏.他记起他童年时代的朋友,他们和他一起来到世上.但是他们在他们的路上取得了成功,在这新年之夜他们都被人称赞并且感到幸福.
教堂上的钟表敲了一下,这声音使他想起了他早年他的父母对他的爱.他们教育他,并向上帝为他祈祷.但是他选错了路.由于惭愧和悲痛,他再也不敢仰望天堂,因为那里有他的父亲.他暗淡的眼睛充满了泪水,然后绝望的哭喊：“回来,以前的时光!回来!”
他的青年时代确实回来了,不过仅仅是在他新年的梦里.尽管他的错误是真实的,但他仍然年轻；他还没有进入又深又黑的洞穴,仍然自由自在的走在通向和平而温暖的土地的路上.
那些仍然徘徊在生命入口的人,犹豫着去选择光明大道的人,请记住随着时间的消逝,当你的脚陷入黑暗的山从之中时,你会痛苦的哭泣,“青春,回来!把我过去的时光带回来!”但那时已经没有任何用处了.
