The song for today is “打開信箱” by Leslie Cheung. The
direct English translation of the title is “Opening letter box”. This song is
the Cantonese cover version of “Nainen sä oot” by Markku Aro.
The lyrics of the song describe the feeling of the protagonist
who is waiting for a letter from someone that he loves. He said: “Knocking on
the letter box is like a lonely hand. Oh, are you inside? Who will understand
this pain, who will understand today’s sadness. Card, electricity bill, and
other selling booklet, sadly your letter is not in there. Who will believe that
the feeling from the past will remain the same. Opening the letterbox, but
inside is just full of confusion. Opening the letterbox, the sad, waiting
eyesight. Today my heart, there is only wishing in sadness, because you no
longer say more than half a sentence for me. Hi, how are you, are the sceneries
overseas great? Now, I feel that I am annoying. But no matter how you make me heartbroken
again, I still wish that we could be together again. Opening the letterbox, but
inside is just full of confusion. Opening the letterbox, the sad, waiting
eyesight. Today my heart, there is only wishing in sadness, because your true
heart had already turn fake. Opening letter box.” Hope you will like the song.
As usual, I have linked to the original song for comparison.
