落雨聲

The chinese in me likes this song. Found it in one of my favourite xanga site. Before blogger i was in xanga, now i'm not so much there anymore. Its nice and there have been a lot of changes but i'm here for a reason and sometimes i miss the people there. Its funny how people are influenced by others. There's a very good video that shows this but thats another post. Enjoy if you can, the vocals are great imho.

落雨聲

詞：方文山　曲：周杰倫　
編：陳飛午 唱：江蕙
. . .

落雨聲　哪親像一條歌　誰知影　阮越頭嘸敢聽
異鄉的我　一個人起畏寒　寂寞的雨聲　捶阮心肝

人孤單　像斷翅的鳥隻　飛袂行　咁講是阮的命
故鄉的山　永遠攏站置遐　阮的心晟只有講乎山來聽
　
來到故鄉的海岸　景色猶原攏總無變化　
當初離開是為啥　你若問阮阮心肝就疼

你若欲友孝世大嘸免等好額　世間有阿母惜的囝仔尚好命
嘸通等成功欲來接阿母住　阿母啊　已經無置遐

你若欲友孝世大嘸免等好額　世間有阿母惜的囝仔尚好命
出社會走闖塊甲人拼輸贏　為著啥　家己嘸知影

你若欲友孝世大嘸免等好額　世間有阿母惜的囝仔尚好命
嘸通等成功欲來接阿母住　阿母啊　已經無置遐

哭出聲　無人惜命命

The Sound of Rain

the sound of rain's like a song
though i'm afraid to listen
being away from home, i feel cold
the lonely sound of rain touches my heart

a solitary man is like a bird with broken wings
doomed to be incapable of flying
a solitary man is like a bird with broken wings
the ever standing mountain in my homeland
will be the only one whom i tell my secrets to

i arrive at my native shore, which has not changed
what was the reason for me to leave?
every time it hurts to hear you mention this

you don't have to wait until you've become sucessful to show devotion
those who have a loving mother are the most fortunate
you don't have to wait until you've become sucessful to fulfill your filial duty
by then she might have already departed

you don't have to wait until you've become sucessful to show devotion
those who have a loving mother are the most fortunate
every day you work so hard
yet you don't even know what it's for

you don't have to wait until you've become sucessful to fulfill your filial duty
by then she might have already departed
no matter how bitterly you cry
she would no longer be there to pat your cheeks dry.

I know its quite sad but sometimes sadness is not a bad thing in itself.
