いつも何度でも
作詞／覚和歌子　
作曲・歌／木村　弓

呼んでいる　胸のどこか奥で
いつも心踊る　夢を見たい

悲しみは　数えきれないけれど
その向こうできっと　あなたに会える

繰り返すあやまちの　そのたびひとは
ただ青い空の　青さを知る
果てしなく　道は続いて見えるけれど
この両手は　光を抱ける

さよならのときの　静かな胸
ゼロになるからだが　耳をすませる

生きている不思議　死んでいく不思議
花も風も街も　みんなおなじ

ラララララララララ・・・・・・・・・
ホホホホルルルル・・・・・・・・

呼んでいる　胸のどこか奥で
いつも何度でも　夢を描こう

悲しみの数を　言い尽くすより
同じくちびるで　そっとうたおう

閉じていく思い出の　そのなかにいつも
忘れたくない　ささやきを聞く
こなごなに砕かれた　鏡の上にも
新しい景色が　映される

はじまりの朝の　静かな窓
ゼロになるからだ　充たされてゆけ

海の彼方には　もう探さない
輝くものは　いつもここに
わたしのなかに　見つけられたから

English Translation

Somewhere, a voice calls, in the depths of my heart
May I always be dreaming, the dreams that move my heart

So many tears of sadness, uncountable through and through
I know on the other side of them I'll find you

Everytime we fall down to the ground we look up to the blue sky above
We wake to it's blueness, as for the first time

Though the road is long and lonely and the end far away, out of sight
I can with these two arms embrace the light

As I bid farewell my heart stops, in tenderness I feel
My silent empty body begins to listen to what is real

The wonder of living, the wonder of dying
The wind, town, and flowers, we all dance one unity

Somewhere a voice calls in the depths of my heart
keep dreaming your dreams, don't ever let them part

Why speak of all your sadness or of life's painfull woes
Instead let the same lips sing a gentle song for you

The whispering voice, we never want to forget,
in each passing memory always there to guide you

When a miror has been broken, shattered pieces scattered on the ground
Glimpses of new life, reflected all around

Window of beginning, stillness, new light of the dawn
Let my silent, empty body be filled and reborn

No need to search outside, nor sail across the sea
Cause here shining inside me, it's right here inside me

I've found a brightness, it's always with me

Deutsche Übersetzung

Aus der Tiefe meines Herzens ruft eine Stimme mich
Möge ich immer träumen, die Träume, die mein Herz ersehnt

So viele Tränen der Trauer, so zahlreich, daß zu einem Fluss sie angeschwollen
Ich weiß, am anderen Ufer dieses Flusses werde ich dich wieder finden

Wenn wir auch fallen, so schauen wir am Boden liegend doch stets zum blauen Himmel empor
Sein reines Blau uns jedesmal erquickt, als wenn wir ihn zum ersten Mal erblicken würden

Auch wenn die Straße lang und einsam und ihr Ende außer Sicht ist
Mit meinen diesen Armen werde ich nach dem Licht greifen und es umfassen

Wenn ich Abschied nehme bleibt das Herz mir stehen, verfallend in Wehmut
Beginnt mein stiller, darbender Körper die Wirklichkeit zu fühlen

Das Wunder des Lebens, das Wunder des Todes
Der Wind, die Stadt und die Blumen, wir alle tanzen miteinander und nicht für uns allein

Aus der Tiefe meines Herzens ruft eine Stimme mich
Mahnt mich meine Träume zu träumen, niemals aufzugeben sie

Warum nur über all deine Traurigkeit oder das Leid in deinem Leben sprechen
Lass doch die selben Lippen ein fröhliches Lied anstimmen

Diese flüsternde Stimme, hüte und vergesse sie nie
Lass sie dich immer leiten, in den Momenten die vergehn

Ein zerbrochener Spiegel, seine Splitter am Boden verstreut
Reflektiert die Zeichen neuer Hoffnung gleich tausendfach

Zeit des Anfangs und der Ruhe, du Licht der Morgenröte
Nähre meinen stillen, darbenden Körper und lass mich wiedergeboren werden

Kein Grund in der Ferne zu suchen, zu segeln über das weite Meer
Denn genau hier, scheinend in mir, ist was ich suche

Habe ich ein Licht gefunden, es ist immer bei mir

茉莉花 Molihua

Wed, 19 Dec 2007 18:08:26 GMT

When I was a second-year-undergraduate student, I was taught this song from my Chinese teacher. At that time, I did not appreciate the song anyway. But a few years later, I had the opportunity to watch its solo symphony orchestra in CCTV, the best known China's television. It was sung by one of the greatest female singer of China-Song Zuying, her talent voice and the magic touch fascinated me to sit down in front of television as if I were nearly the stage of the grand theatre in Vienna.

Molihua (茉莉花), the name of this song, means 'jasmine' which symbolizes elegance, fragrance, purity, and love in classical Chinese. Even though it is a folk song of an ethnic group, it is widely known as the most popular song Chinese children love to sing and teacher also love to teach.

As an ethnic girl, Song Zuying give us the great performance with her interpretation and her 'native' point of view. So I found that not only hard work, dedication, and unbelievable talent which lift her up to this standard but also her elegance, fragrance, purity, and love that make her fascinating like a Molihua.

Let you see her blossom now...

That's What Friends are For

I knew this song from 'youtube' when I listened to Houston's works. (Dionne Warwick is Houston's sister so we can rather believe that she will be professional in singing) It is quite clear what and how it expresses, due to good intension the writer hope any people easily get it. This song was made up for supporting AIDS research as the main objective in order to prove that the HIV victims, idealistically, would not be neglected.

Dionne Warwick - That's What Friends are For

And I never thought I'd feel this way
And as far as I'm concerned
I'm glad I got the chance to say
That I do believe I love you

And if I should ever go away
Well, then close your eyes and try to feel
The way we do today
And then if you can remember

Keep smilin', keep shinin'
Knowin' you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for

Well, you came and opened me
And now there's so much more I see
And so by the way I thank you

Whoa, and then for the times when we're apart
Well, then close your eyes and know
These words are comin' from my heart
And then if you can remember, oh

Keep smiling, keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
In good times, in bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
Oh, that's what friends are for

Whoa... oh... oh... keep smilin', keep shinin'
Knowin' you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for

Keep smilin', keep shinin'
Knowin' you can always count on me, oh, for sure
'Cause I tell you that's what friends are for
For good times and for bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for (That's what friends are for)

On me, for sure
That's what friends are for
Keep smilin', keep shinin'

Color Esperanza

ลองฟังเพลงนี้กันนะ

http://www.f64.com.br/fotos/jamfra/esperanza.html

เพลงนี้ขับร้องเป็นภาษาสเปนโดยนักร้องชาวอาร์เจนตินาชื่อ ดิเอโก ตอเรส

(Un argentino, se llama Diego Torres, canta la música)

เพลงนี้มีชื่อว่า Color Esperanza แปลว่า Color of Hope

ทำนองให้ความสดชื่น ฟังแล้วมีชีวิตชีวา เนื้อเพลงกล่าวถึง ช่วงเวลาที่เราสิ้นหวังขอให้คิดว่าไม่มีอะไรที่เราจะทำไม่ได้ เว้นเสียแต่ว่าเราถอดใจและยอมพ่ายแพ้มัน ท้ายสุดแล้วเราจะสามารถฝ่าข้ามความยากลำบากไปได้ ขอเพียงให้มองออกไปยังบานหน้าต่างที่เปิดออก แล้วจะเห็นว่าโลกภายนอกนั้นงดงามเพียงใด
