劍橋雨中萬人為霍金送行, Everything Has Its Time

2021-02-19 千讀


3月的最後一天,英國劍橋的市民們雨中為霍金送行。

這位理論物理學家在尋找宇宙的答案時,也接受了生命的深度和複雜性。

近500名霍金的親友和同事在下午2點聚集在聖瑪麗大教堂(Great St Mary's Church)為他送行,就在霍金多年來擔任劍橋大學研究主任的那條路上。劍橋當天的氣溫十分寒冷,還下著小雨,但道路兩旁早已擠滿了來自世界各地的上萬名民眾。

在霍金生前所在的劍橋大學岡維爾與凱斯學院(Gonville and Caius College),人們自發在門口留下鮮花以紀念。霍金在這裡從事教學和科研52年,學院目前還保留著霍金生前的辦公室。

下午2點,霍金的靈柩抵達劍橋大學聖瑪麗大教堂,教堂鳴鐘76次,以悼念霍金享年76歲。

霍金的靈柩靈柩上放有白色的百合和玫瑰,分別象徵著宇宙和北極星。

英國男演員Eddie Redmayne,曾在2014年主演關於霍金的傳記電影《The Theory of Everything萬物理論》,並獲得奧斯卡獎,他在霍金葬禮上致詞。霍金的一位學生和長子也分別在葬禮上致詞。葬禮是為霍金的親友和同事舉辦的私人儀式,不對外開放。

今年晚些時候,Westminster Abbey大教堂將在感恩節舉行紀念霍金的隆重儀式,將他的骨灰安放在大教堂,就在牛頓爵士的墳墓附近。

霍金的家人說,這個城市是霍金深愛的:


"He was an integral and highly recognizable part of the university and the city,"  "For this reason, we have decided to hold his funeral in the city that he loved so much and which loved him. Our father’s life and work meant many things to many people, both religious and non-religious. So, the service will be both inclusive and traditional, reflecting the breadth and diversity of his life."

為霍金送行的英國市民


Eddie Redmayne在霍金葬禮上誦讀了《聖經》傳道書的第三章1-11節 Everything Has Its Time, 以此紀念霍金非凡的一生,十分感人。


Everything Has Its Time

For everything there is a season,and a time for every matter under heaven: 

凡事有定期,天下萬務皆有定時。

a time to be born, and a time to die;a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;

生有時,死有時;栽種有時,收成有時;

a time to kill, and a time to heal;a time to break down, and a time to build up;

殺戮有時,醫治有時;拆毀有時,建造有時;

a time to weep,and a time to laugh;a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

哭有時,笑有時;哀慟有時,跳舞有時;

a time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

拋擲石頭有時,堆聚也有時;懷抱有時,不懷抱也有時;

a time to seek, and a time to lose;a time to keep, and a time to throw away;

尋找有時,失落有時;保守有時,捨棄有時;

a time to tear, and a time to sew;a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

撕裂有時,縫補有時;靜默有時,發聲有時;

a time to love, and a time to hate;a time for war, and a time for peace.

喜愛有時,恨惡有時;爭戰有時,和平有時。

再見,永遠的霍金!
