 LISTEN TO SHIRLEY TO SING THE SONG
 Hi, friends, today, I would like to introduce a Chinese Taiwan campus ballad Waipo de Penghu Wan -- Grandma's Penghu Bay. This song was created by Ye Jiaxiu in 80's and was popular in the Mainland campuses at that time. :-) Many famous musicians have sung it. :-) In Taiwan, "the Folk Songs King" -- Mr. Pan Anpan started to be famous for this song and in the Mainland in 80's, Mr. Wang Jieshi and Ms. Xie Lisi were most popular musicians who have seen it. :-)
I enjoyed Taiwan compos ballads in my student times, but, I could not remember their lyrics then. Anyway, since I started to learn vocal music, I have remembered most of the lyrics of the songs that I have learned. I enjoy this song for its beautiful, kind, pure lyrics, relaxed style and its easy tone... :-)
MAIN MEANING OF THE SONGLISTEN TO SHIRLEY TO SING THE SONG:
Grandmas Penghu Bay
Evening breeze is kissing Penghu Bay softly,
The ocean waves are chasing the sand beach.
There is no any coco forest decorating the setting sun鐚but only the blue sea.
I am sitting on the sunk fence of the front of the gate鐚
to recall once and once...
It was also on the sand beach at dusk鐚
there were 2 couple and a half footprint on the beach,
That was grandma leaning on a stick
and she was taking my hand...
We were stepping on the dewfall鐚
walking to the setting sunshine鐚
Warm Penhu Bay.
One footprint is a bunch of laughs鐚
we had spent so much happy time
until the dim light of night covered both of us
on the road that came back home.
The Penghu Bay,
The Penghu Bay,
Grandma's Penghu Bay
There were so many fantasies of my childhood's鐚
sunshine, sand beach, ocean wave, cactus鐚
and an elder captain...
Note: Penhu is a county in Taiwan, it is made of 64 little inland. Also, Penhu is an archipelago with 64 inlands. :-) So, do not misunderstand that Penhu is "Pen Lake". :-)
