By Sarah McLachlan

       本届冬奥会的开幕式上，加拿大女歌手Sarah McLachlan带着她的原创抒情慢歌“平凡的奇迹”倾情献唱。这首歌曲还曾作为2006年电影Charlotte’s Web的片尾曲被收录在其原声带中。

    It’s not that unusual
    When everything is beautiful，
    It’s just another ordinary miracle today.
    The sky knows when it’s time to snow，
    Don’t need to teach a seed to grow，
    It’s just another ordinary miracle today.

    Life is like a gift， they say，
    Wrapped up for you every day.
    Open up and find a way
    To give some of your own love.

    Isn’t it remarkable﹖
    Like every time a raindrop falls
    It’s just another ordinary miracle today.
    Birds are meant to have their flame，
    They always make it home on spring.
    It’s just another ordinary miracle today.

    When you wake up everyday，
    Please don’t throw your dreams away
    Hold them close to your heart，
    ‘Cause we are all a part of the ordinary miracle.

    Ordinary miracle，
    Do you want to see a miracle﹖
    It seems so exceptional
    The things just work out after all
    It’s just another ordinary miracle today.
    The sun comes up and shines so bright，
    And disappears again at night.
    It’s just another ordinary miracle today.
