3rd Oct 2013 (讓風箏飛 – Sita Chan)

The song that I chose for today is “讓風箏飛” by Sita Chan. This song came out last year. Personally I quite like this song and I think that Sita was one of the new singers that could be a big star, but sadly she passed away earlier this year. The direct English translation of the title is “Let the kite fly”.

The lyrics of the song are about growing up. It begins by telling us that it was summer and the kid was flying his kite, even his sweat taste sweet. The notebook that we forget, where are you now, the one that used to step on the grass in our childhood, did you got blowed away by the summer wind? Childhood is like a kite with a broken wire, it will just fly away very quickly. The protagonist wonders when she will be able to say goodbye peacefully like an adult, even at time when she is very sad. It wouldn’t be sunny every day, there will always be a day that you have to learn about disappointment and sadness. When you realised that yesterday got away like the wind and your beautiful dreams turn to nothing, you need to let go and try to control yourself. The weather wouldn’t always be sunny, you need to put down your kite sometime and let it fill the crack in the sky. It is like the long gone childhood, which no one could tough. Time is like a river, when we woke up ten years has already pasted, but the flower we had picked up will remain in our heart. Childhood is like the kite with a broken wire, it flew away without notice, but it will always remain warm in our hand. When will we learn to be calm like an adult, even at time when we are angry. We like to own things when we were a kid, we had our parents to give us everything and that still wasn’t enough, we didn’t learn to let go. The weather wouldn’t always be sunny, one day we will learn about disappointment and sadness. When we realised that promise is just like the wind and dreams turn to nothing, we need to let go and control ourselves. The weather wouldn’t be sunny every day, we need to put down out kite and let it fly to the crack in the sky. But the childhood that we had, we will be able to see it in our dream. Hope you will like the song.
