Long-distance relationship (Video) 两地情，一生爱（吉他弹唱视频）

The 7th day of the 7th month (double seven) in the lunar calendar, which often comes in August of the solar calendar, is called Qixi Festival in China since 2000 years ago. This festival is nowadays well-known as the Chinese Valentine's Day. It celebrates a folktale of the Weaver Girl and the Cowherd. This tale is referred to in the Tanabata festival in Japan, and in the Chilseok festival in Korea.

Can long distance relationship last long? Will you still love me after a long time with a long distance between you and me? In the science fiction The Three-Body Problem, it is said that long distance between to planets results in communication difficulties, which leads to a suspicion chain.

A Chinese poet wrote the folktale of the Weaver Girl and the Cowherd into a poem 1000 years ago, which was translated by Xu Yuanchong into English:

Clouds float like works of art. 纤云弄巧
Stars shoot with grief at heart. 飞星传恨
Across the Milky Way the Cowherd meets the Maid. 银汉迢迢暗度
When Autumn’s Golden wind embraces Dew of Jades. 金风玉露一相逢
All the love scenes on earth, however many, fade. 便胜却人间无数

Their tender love flows like a stream. 柔情似水
This happy date seems but a dream. 佳期如梦
Can they bear a separate homeward way? 忍顾鹊桥归路
If love between both sides can last for aye. 两情若是久长时
Why need they stay together night and day? 又岂在朝朝暮暮

这是宋朝诗人秦观的一首《鹊桥仙》，写的是牛郎织女两地恋的爱情。牛郎织女在银河两岸，一年才能见一面，恰如身边遇到的故事。身在国外，两地恋的真实故事看得太多了。有坚贞苦守的，有各奔东西的，有临时出轨的，有圆满团聚的……距离产生美，也产生沟通障碍，沟通障碍容易造成猜疑（见科幻小说《三体》），所以有一首旧情歌里唱到：

异乡的午夜特别冷清，一个男人和一颗热切的心，不知在远方的你是否能感应。

心中的话到现在才对你表明，不知道你是否会因此而清醒，让身在远方的我不必为你担心

你和他之间是否已经有了真感情，别隐瞒，对我说，别怕我伤心。

The longest distance is that between life and death. Ghost: Mouichido Dakishimetai is a Japanese file, remade from the classic movie Ghost. A friend of mine, Yang Liu, translated the theme song into Chinese. I edited the guitar chords and sang it with my guitar. Here is the video. At the end of this post, there is the lyrics and the guitar chords.

youtube视频：我爱你

两地恋情，最要紧的是信任；一生所爱，最远的距离不是牵牛织女星，而是生与死。早年的电影《人鬼情未了》，感动了一代人。这部电影近年来被日本翻拍，其中的主题歌《アイシテル》曾让当时在法国留学的 yangliufr 同学夜不能寐，起身为这首歌填上了中文歌词。这让我想起了我年轻的时候，也曾经是会为一首歌激动的。网上可以找到这首歌的和弦谱，但是过于繁琐，我做了一些简化。

上面是我为这首歌弹唱的一段视频。歌词和吉他谱附后。尽管降了一个调，但仍然唱不上去，歌词有唱错的，还有小孩捣乱的，凑合吧。在如今这个很多人只在乎及时享乐的时代，两地情，苦多于乐，坚持不下来的是正常人，坚持下来的有金子心。能避免两地的，还是尽量避免吧；避免不了的，愿终成眷属。

我爱你
