Nature cannot be overriden
but the catastrophe of an earthquake brings us too much pain
Never does life yield to diseases without an indomitable fight
but faced with the natural calamity, it appears so powerless without a struggle
By a violent quake, in an instant, thousands upon thousands of lives were claimed
Those we hold dear have reached a better place
Leaving the survivors grief and agony that may haunt the rest of their lives
Life is transient
So be grateful for each new day
Every day,
every hour,
and every minute is special;
For you don‘t know whether it will be your last.

自然的力量不可抗拒，
但地震的惨重后果令我们无比心痛！
对抗疾病，生命能够百般顽强
面临天灾，生命却显得如此脆弱！
地动山摇，万千生命瞬间凋零
罹难者失去的是尘世间生命
留给幸存者的是余生难以愈合的伤痛
生命短暂易逝
所以请珍惜每一个新的日子
每一天、
每一小时、
每一分钟都非同寻常；
因为你无从知道这是否就是你生命的最后一刻。
