Abstract

I looked at my favorite chocolate and offered it.  Lifetime hardwork was swallowed by usurpers, seeds have volatile prices, meat is out of question. Lebanese are jobless, but Syrians are subsidised.  Water is scarce,and some go to the spring to fill reservoirs if fule there is, and schools need fresh money.  Yet, few worry about finding "foi gras", but others sleep early to avoid dinner.  Winter freezes us. Torn clothes and worn shoes are burned for warmth.  When hunger creeps, luxury becones meaningless.

苦难的微笑
我看着自己最爱的巧克力,把它献了出去。 一生的辛劳被篡夺者吞没,种子价格波动,肉类不值一提。黎巴嫩人没有工作,叙利亚人却有补贴。 水很稀缺,如果有水,有些人就去泉水边灌水库,学校也需要新的资金。 然而,很少有人担心找不到 "foi gras",但其他人却早早入睡以避免吃晚饭。 冬天把我们冻僵了。破衣服和旧鞋子被烧掉取暖。 当饥饿来临时,奢华变得毫无意义。
