The Man Who PlantedTrees
——Dedicated to Our National Teacher YangShanzhou
By Li Qingming Tr. Li Zhengshuan
Today,it is the birthday of a person who may be unfamiliar to most people. He is YangShanzhou, a native of Yaoguan Town, Shidian County, Baoshan City of YunnanProvince. He used to be the top leader of Baoshan District. In 1988, when heretired, he gave up enjoying a life of ease in Kunming as arranged byprovincial leaders in his twilight years but leda group of people to the boundless barren Daliang Mountains where heplanted trees for over 20 years with incredible tenacity and sagacity, overcoming all kinds ofdifficulties and obstacles, and finally built up a forest with an area of 60000acres worth 300 million Yuan (The forest was later named "Shanzhou ForestFarm"). Later, he donated the business management right of the forest farmto our country without any compensation. He left only 40,000 Yuan out of the200,000 Yuan of bonuses to his wife Zhang Yuzhen for her elderly care, whospent all her life in the countryside. The rest of the bonuses were totallydenoted. Yang Shanzhou won the special honor as one of the "Ten KeyFigures Touching China in 2012" owing to his commonplace but excellentcontribution. Last year, on February 25, after I finished the special report onidyllic education and school management in Shidian County, Baoshan City,accompanied by Yang Yongfu, deputy director of Bureau of Education and others,I went to Shanzhou Forest Farm to pay homage to this man.On the frontier of the frontier, there has been such a great"Man Who Planted Trees"! How can we not be moved to tears? “The Man WhoPlanted Trees”(alsotranslated as "The Shepherd Who Planted Trees", or "TheMan Who Planted Trees"), is the representative work of Jean Giono, afamous French writer who told the story of a man called "Bouffier"who has persevered in planting trees for decades in a desolate highland andcreated the miracle of Provence. The cartoon of the same name once won the 60thOscar Award for Best Animated Short Film, was nominated for the Palme d'Orat Cannes International Film Festival and won theWorldAnimation Grand Ceremony and Award and the like. However, as a matter of fact, “Bouffier”is fictionalwhile Yang Shanzhou is a real-life Chinese "Bouffier". YangShanzhou’s story is quite similar to that of "The Man Who PlantedTrees". Though Shanzhou Forest Farm is not as charming and world-famous asProvence, it has become "Provence" in my heart because it was strewnwith footprints of "The Man who Planted Trees". On themountainous path of the visit, I promised to write a long poem tointerpret "The Man Who Planted Trees" from a new perspective andplanned to officially release it to commemorate this great Chinese nationalteacher on his birthday. As a veteran teacher, I have my personal belief thatall the teachers in the world can benefit a lot from this story! The process ofmy writing this poem is long as I did it at intermittence. And I was oftenmoved to torrents of tears. All sorts of feelings welling from my heart arebeyond deion or are only to be sought and experienced beyond poetry.
让·焦诺的《种树的男人》（TheMan Who Planted Trees by Jean Giono）

澜沧江水奔腾东去
淘尽千古风流
苍龙偷袭沙壶
溅起的千朵浪花
早已凋零一地
那个气定神闲的小龙人
早已化作空中幽浮的尘埃
你，当年的黑蛮儿
也巍峨矗立
成为眼前这尊冰冷而坚毅的石雕
一群珊瑚鸟从树林风声里飞出
泣血声声
翻山越岭
盘旋入云
一首千年苦歌
唱出我心中的大雨倾盆

Lancang River eastwardbillows,
Gone with it areancient heroes.
The gray dragon raidedShahu slyly
And thousands of wavesit splashed
Have already fadedaway.
That calm and peacefulLittle Dragon Man
Has turned intoethereal dust already.
You, Heiman’er (darkrobust young man),
