 LISTEN TO SHIRLEY TO SING IN CHINESE LISTEN TO SHIRLEY TO SING IN ENGLISH
 Hi, friends, in the beginning of a new year, do you have any dreams about your life and word?
This week, I learned to sing an American song -- Beautiful Dreamer in Chinese and English. This is the first time that I learned to sing a song in both of Chinese and English. So, I started my learning from Monday. I practised to sing it in my car while I was drving and I really feeled fun to sing a song with two languages. :-)
I really hope that my new effort is a little bit helpful to you to improve your Chinese listening ability. :-)
There are many Chinese translation version, now I would like to use the version by Hunan Art Press..

Beautiful Dream
By Stephen Foster (U.S.A.)
Beautiful dreamer, wake unto me,
Starlight and dewdrops are waiting for thee;
Sounds of the rude world heard in the day,
Lulld by the moonlight have all passd away!
Beautiful dreamer, queen of my song,
List while I woo thee with soft melody;
Gone are the cares of lifes busy throng
Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
Beautiful dreamer, out on the sea,
Mermaids are chaunting the wild lorelie;
Over the streamlet vapors are borne,
Waiting to fade at the bright coming morn.
Beautiful dreamer, beam on my heart,
Een as the morn on the streamlet and sea;
Then will all clouds of sorrow depart,
Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!

Dreamer can be translated to be "Meng zhong ren", but this version translated it to be Meng shen -- Dream Goddess, it sounds like more romantic and also be better to match the words -- queen of the song. So, I use this version here and hope you enjoy it.LISTEN TO SHIRLEY TO SING IN CHINESELISTEN TO SHIRLEY TO SING IN ENGLISH :-)
