The
song for today is “歌頌” by Eason Chan. This is a reader request. The
direct English translation of the title is “Praise”. While the phase translates
to “praise”, I think it has a double meaning. The word “頌”
alone can mean ‘praise’ as well, so the title can also translate to “Praising for
songs”
The
lyrics are quite abstract for this song, I will try my best to translate it,
but it will still probably not fully capture the sense of the original Chinese
lyrics meaning. I think the lyrics of the song are about being graceful to songs/music
as they can describe every of our feelings. It said: “It, pushing you over need
to go through sadness and excitement. Coming from how many pure heart? Who
dreamed the speed and the ups and downs for feelings? Gone through the ups and
downs, making it go born faster. When moving, I am like Mars; when quiet, I am
like the shadow of water. Following the pulse, shine on the sadness, listening
to your heart. At the happy place leave behind a haven, at the place of sadness,
melt the mood. Left behind the self-reflection anger releasing moment, even if
it is hard to get over, at least it is joyful to be in pain. It, perhaps even a
tiny bit could give you a chill; extracted from the soul that can see through loneliness.
From it, you should know your happiness and bad luck. Always have some stranger
to walk with you, accompanying you for life. For the road you left behind the
street light; for the story you left behind your silhouette. Left behind the
journey that dried each and every of your tears, left behind your outline. For
the past, left behind your tiny self; for the future, take a snap shoot. Left
behind the would journey of rotation, every shoot for the proof of this world.
Be graceful that there is always a song that could describe our feeling. Doesn’t
matter whether it was for movement or for still, everyone will have love, out
feeling will be able to be touched by it. The scenery follows our outline, our
mind follows our heart. Carrying the essence of millions of our thought,
forming the brightest voice in our era. It can be so loud that it covers the
sound of cannon. It can trick your ears, breathing your feeling. You want to be
resonated? Listen with your heart.” Hope you will like the song.
歌頌 – Eason Chan
