致小情歌

耳边不停地重复听着同一首曲，
嘴上不觉地重复哼着同一个调。
一首歌让我着了魔，
一首簡單的小情歌。
我喜欢它幽柔委婉的曲调，
我喜欢他情感细腻的唱腔。
我喜欢它简朴又深邃的描绘，
我喜欢他相聚又离散的叙述。
我喜欢看它飘浮在空中，音符围绕着我转啊转啊转的一幕。
我喜欢听他的迂回悸动，心迹随着旋律跳啊跳啊跳的一刻。
握紧那个他的手，心情单纯快乐，冰冰的冬天也不那么冷了。
渐失那个他的肩，思绪混乱复杂，热热的夏天怎么那么冷呢？
乐与哀的拥有与失去，不禁让我想起那年的那个他。

小情歌
乐团：苏打绿

這是一首簡單的小情歌
唱著人們心腸的曲折
我想我很快樂　當有你的溫熱
腳邊的空氣轉了

這是一首簡單的小情歌
唱著我們心頭的白鴿
我想我很適合　當一個歌頌者
青春在風中飄著

你知道　就算大雨讓這座城市顛倒
我會給你懷抱
受不了　看見你背影來到
寫下我　度秒如年難挨的離騷

就算整個世界被寂寞綁票
我也不會奔跑
逃不了　最後誰也都蒼老
寫下我　時間和琴聲交錯的城堡

Little Love Song
Artist: Sodagreen
Translator: M. Oyen

This is a simple little love song
Singing the complications of people’s hearts
I think I’m happy, when I had your warmth
The air by my feet turned

This is a simple little love song
Singing of the white doves in our hearts
I think I’m suited to singing odes
Youth flutters in the wind

You know, even if floods overtake this city
I’ll give you my embrace
I can’t stand it, seeing the form of your back
I record the unending misery of leaving

Even if the entire world is held ransom by loneliness
I still can’t run away
I can’t escape, in the end everyone grows old
I record how for me, time and music intersected at the wrong castle

Invicible Wings

Sitting on the car, on my way back to the 'suburb' home, I found myself repeatedly replaying the song, The Invicible Wings by Angela Zhang (隱形的翅膀, 張韶涵). Again and again... sang to the lyrics...

隱形的翅膀
每一次 都在徘徊孤單中堅強
每一次 就算很受傷也不閃淚光 我知道 我一直有雙隱形的翅膀 帶我飛 飛過絕望
不去想 他們擁有美麗的太陽 我看見 每天的夕陽 也會有變化 我知道 我一直有雙隱形的翅膀 帶我飛 給我希望
我終於看到 所有夢想都開花 追逐的年輕 歌聲多嘹亮
我終於翺翔 用心凝望不害怕 哪裏會有風 就飛多遠吧
隱形的翅膀 讓夢恒久比天長 留一個願望 讓自己想像

The Invisible Wings *English translation from Wikipedia*
Each time, I become stronger in loneliness.
Each time, I hold off my tears even when I’m hurt deeply.
I know I have a pair of invisible wings that will let me fly.
Fly over despair.
I will not envy that they have the beautiful sun.
I can see that the dusk is different everyday.
I know I have a pair of invisible wings that will let me fly.
Give me hope.
I finally see all my dreams come true.
The youthful pursuits. How the singing voice resonant?
I finally take flight. I look forward and am not afraid.
I would fly however far the wind takes me.
Invisible wings let dreams last forever.
I’ll keep one wish for my own imagination.

Like me and those who is walking on a path with only glimpse of light, will find a way... I hope... *smile*

Blessing in disguise.

Sitting on the bus, yawning to get awake, looking out too the window… The streets were rather quite. There are fewer cars. Sign of school kids was no where to be seen. The university was rather deserted. Then, I remembered. Today is the day where the locals visit the cemetery.

Calm. Bright. Bluish sky, rather cold and windy. *hurdled both hands into my jacket to get some comfort.* Staring nowhere… my mind went blank unconciously. I idled. Idling… Felt some emptiness and missing something… *a morning syndrome?*

… … … Slowly, the melody flowed in my mind genteelly, softly.

Walk blindly to the light and reach out for his hand
Don’t ask any questions and don’t try to understand
Open up your mind and then open up your heart
And you will see that you and me aren’t very far apart

‘Cause I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way

Violence is spread world wide and there are families on the street
And we sell drugs to children now oh why can’t we just see
That all we do is eliminate our future with the things we do today
But money is our incentive now so that makes it okay

But I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
I believe I believe I believe I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way

I’ve been seeing Lisa now for a little over a year
She said she’s never been so happy but Lisa lives in fear
That one day daddy’s gonna find out she’s in love
With a nigger from the streets
Oh how he would lose it then but she’s still here with me
‘Cause she believes that love will see it through
And one day he’ll understand
And he’ll see me as a person not just a black man

‘Cause I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
I believe I believe I believe I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
Love will find the way
Love will find the way
Love will find the way
Please love find the way
Please love find the way

… I related and I found smile. Just a normal day with blessing in disguise. *smile*
