想着生活继续，天空失去了美丽，
你却等待梦在明天站起。
你的呼喊刻在我的血液里
Always together, dead or alive
Where did your dream go
As life continues, the sky becomes gloomy
You look for the dreams of tomorrow
Your cries will forever in my blood flow

生死不离，我数秒等你的消息。
相信生命不息，与你祈祷一起呼吸
我看不到你却牵挂在心里，
你的目光是我全部的意义！
Always together, dead or alive
I wait for word of you every second
I pray with you that we breathe together
Believing life will never end
My heart is with you, where can you be?
And your eyes are the whole world to me

无论你在哪里，我都要找到你。
血脉能创造奇迹，生命是意义
无论你在哪里，我都要找到你。
手拉着手，生死不离
Wherever you are, I will find you
The bond (of blood) makes miracles, and for life we strive
Wherever you are, I will find you
Hand in hand, together always, dead or alive

生死不离，全世界都被沉寂
痛苦也不哭泣，爱是你的传奇，
彩虹在风雨后渐渐升起。
我的努力看到爱的力气！
无论你在哪里，我都要找到你！
血脉能创造奇迹，大山毅然举起
无论你在哪里，我都要找到你。
天裂了，去缝起
你一丝希望是我全部的动力
搭起我的手筑成你回家的路基！！！
Always together, dead or alive
When the world is silenced
We shed no tears though in pain
For of love you are legend
And rainbows are rising after wind and rain
I see love’s strength in search of you
Wherever you are, I will find you
The bond (of blood) makes miracles, and mountains rise again
Wherever you are, I will find you
If the sky breaks, we will sew it
Your glimmer of hope is all power of me
Your road home is what my hands will be

无论你在哪里，我都要找到你。
血脉能创造奇迹，生命是命题
无论你在哪里，我都要找到你。
手拉着手，生死不离
Wherever you are, I will find you
The bond (of blood) makes miracles, and on life we thrive
Wherever you are, I will find you
Hand in hand, together always, dead or alive

无论你在哪里，我都要找到你！
血脉能创造奇迹，大山毅然举起
无论你在哪里，我都要找到你。
无论你在哪里，我都要找到你。
天裂了，去缝起
手拉着手，生死不离！！！

The 100-plus pandas in China’s largest giant panda reserve in Gansu Province, which were reported to be missing after the May 12 earthquake, are considered to be safe and well, local forestry officials said on Thursday.

“All the pandas in the reserve are safe, according to our experience,” Li Shiren, an official of the Baishuijiang Nature Reserve Administration told the Beijing Morning Post.

The researchers traced fresh excrements of pandas and heard their sounds for many times. And the 64 forest rangers, who live in the reserve all year long, didn’t find any abnormal behaviors of the pandas.

“Giant panda is a very sensitive animal. It will stay in its cave if anything unusual happens. Besides, pandas in the reserve will go down the hill everyday to drink water, which makes it easy for our workers to spot anything out of the way,” Li added.

Li also confirmed the bamboos in the reserve, which is a major source of food for the pandas, remain sufficient in amount.

The latest national census of giant pandas, which lasted from 1999 to 2001, counted 103 of the animals in Baishuijiang, the largest of China’s 55 giant panda reserves. The area is within 100 kilometers of the hardest-hit counties of Sichuan.

“Our reserve was seriously affected by the quake,” Li Shiren added.

The administration’s seven work stations in the reserve were damaged to different extents, and the mountain roads were all blocked. 50 forestry workers in the mountain lost contacts with the administration for about one day after the quake hit, but were confirmed safe later, according to Li.

After the quake, the administration sent two teams, about 90 researchers altogether, into the reserve to check out the pandas’ safety, and the second team has just returned on Wednesday.

During the three day of mouring for quake victims, the website mourn the victims in their own way. They send the message about the earthquake, they call upon all the people to provide help. If you log on to some website form China, you will find that there are some differents as before. The mail color of the websites are grey or dark now. And some of websites stop running during the three days.

Look at some main websites for example:

  BEIJING, May 21 (Xinhua) — The death toll from China’s devastating earthquake rose by 1,278 to 41,353 as of noon on Wednesday, according to the Information Office of the State Council.

    Another 274,683 people were injured and there were still 32,666missing in the aftermath of the 8.0-magnitude quake that hit southwestern Sichuan Province on May 12.

    With the increasing number of deaths and the coming summer, the quake disaster regions are facing mounting pressure to prevent epidemics though no epidemic outbreak or serious mass health accident had been reported yet.

    Thousands of medical workers are on the scene. Medical teams with about 45,000 members were working in all quake-hit counties and townships in Sichuan as of Wednesday, according to the Ministry of Health.

On  May19th,2008, the whole Country of China mourn for the victims during the Sichuan earthquake. Across the country, sirens and horns wailed; people fell silent. China Central Television darkened its screen. In the headquarters of the Beijing Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games, more than 200 employees gathered in front of their office building, facing southwest, towards Sichuan, in a silent tribute.

After the three minutes mourn in  Tian’anmen square, thousands of people shouted “Go, Go, China!” “Brave and strong, China!” and “Brave and Strong, Wenchuan!” “Hang on, Sichuan!”

In order to mourn to the victims during the Sichuan earthquack, the State council, the Cabinet ordered a national respect for the dead. The public are asked to stand in silence for three minutes from 2:28 p.m. Monday, while automobiles, trains, and ships will sound their air sirens.

Flags are to be kept at half-mast and all public amusements will be suspended for three days from Monday as China begins an official mourning period for victims of the May 12 earthquake.

China’s diplomatic missions abroad were also ordered to observe the mourning order, and condolence books are to be opened in the Foreign Ministry and Chinese embassies and consulates around the world.
