26th Feb 2014 (少女的祈禱 – Miriam Yeung)

The song that I chose for today is “少女的祈禱” by Miriam Yeung. This is one of my favourites, I remember I bought the album because of this song. The direct English translation of the title is “The maiden’s prayer”.

The lyrics of the song are about love. The protagonist is the maiden and it is her love story. She said that she meets him on a bus and she felt love at first sight. She said that she will not let go of him no matter how crowded the bus get. She prays that there wouldn’t be any troubles along the way to turn this happy journey to sad. They got pass two green light in a row, and so she can love him for a few more miles. When the light turn red, then she will have to leave. Let luck determine her ending. She pray that people could leave them alone, so that what she scare of will never happen. She never has anything good goes her way, then how could she pick back up her self-esteem. She pray that God could grand a kiss to her from him like how God forgive sinner. She love God and at the same time she love a human. So she prays that he wouldn’t change his heart, and pray for protection. Because of him, she learned how to pray, but why would God take care of these type of follower? She uses her hand to cover eyes when she prays, so that she wouldn’t see the answer. She prays that she can reach the future with him, even when the bus got destroy. No matter how hurt it get, she wishes that she could decide whether she wanted to keep loving or not. Because of him, she learned how to pray, but why would God take care of these type of follower? She loves him so much, but she thinks so negatively and she starts praying and begging to the green light. But God didn’t understand her kindness, when she opens her eyes there are no light to point her to the right direction. She love God, but why let her love one left her and got off the bus? How would you answer to that? Hope you will like the song.
