I do not blog about my life. This is a journal of random thoughts of whatever interests me.
A temporary spot of existence where memories are stored for a period of time until they are forgotten...

Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind. "Pooh", he whispered.
"Yes, Piglet?"
"Nothing," said Piglet, taking Pooh's paw, "I just wanted to be sure of you."
~ Winnie the Pooh quote


“Rivers know this: there is no hurry. We shall get there some day.” )

Hoping to be a bit more organise with things around here, before it gets too late :) Lyric translations are indexed according to artist's chinese pinyin surname or the name they are famously known by, or the first character in a band's name. Click on the song title to be directed to their respective translation post. Requests will continue to be taken here, as I would like to keep commenting on this master post disabled.

苏打绿 Sodagreen & Ella - 你被写在我的歌里 You Are Written In My Song
Download mp3 here

The road traveled is a case of magic
Take all the good things, bad things to become mine
Even if we don't remember the bitterness in our hearts,
They have transformed into this gaze, and sang into a song

And you are like the rippling sound of water flowing into this poem
Knocking open the door to my heart, embracing all my hatred
Nourishing the drought, believing I can be yours

As though the sorrowful face from yesterday lingers still
Happiness can sometimes sting like a slap on the face
It is you who reminded me to not be afraid of dreaming
To not succumb to thoughts of habitual avoidance

As though we can just make out two trails of footprints on the corridor of tomorrow
Sadness has sometimes been flavoured by you into a piece of sweet
It is you who held tightly on to me, looking straight ahead
Looking towards the opposite shore of my inner thoughts filled with blossoming flowers
I am written all over your eyes, blinking

You are written in my song, to sing
We are written in each other's hearts, to love


Chinese and Romanised Pin Yin )

[Listening to - Cradle.mp3]

其实每一个在地球上感到孤独的生物,都是来自外星球的旅客。他们原本是在自己的星球参加了一个名为孤独之旅的旅行团,才会因此来到地球上的。所以那些常常会感到孤独的生物其实根本不必害怕。好好享受这场旅行吧,因为等你的孤独走到尽头的时候,你回家的时刻就到了。

Actually, every living being who feels lonely on this earth are travelers from another planet. Back on their own planet, they participated in a tour titled 'A Journey of Solitude'. As a result, they have come to this earth. Hence those that frequently find themselves lonely have no reason to be afraid. Enjoy this journey, because when your road in solitude ends, it is time to go home.


p.s. I am off to rural for 3 weeks for my rural rotation!
