LISTEN TO THE SONG BY SHIRLEY -- Sep 10, 2005:


Hi, friends, today, I would like to introduce a new Chinese popular song names The Same Songfor you. The lyrics of the song was written by Chen Zhe, Wang Jie. Meng Weidong wrote the music. This song was sung by Ms. Mao Amin as a solo first time in 80's. It was popular soon then. Now, it has been adapted to be a chorus as well.:-)



MAIN MEANING OF THE SONGLISTEN TO THE SONG BY SHIRLEY:

Fresh flowers have told me that how you had experienced,
mother earth knows every corner in your heart.
Every one does not want to miss a sweet dream,
Finally we face the happy meeting time today.

We have gone across thousand rivers and 10 thousands mountains,
We remember every meeting and the smiling faces each other.
In the bright sunshine and happy days,
we are hands in hands,
there are too many words that we want to say.

Starlight have covered whole of the childhood,
Wind and rain have gone through all of the corners in the world.
The same feelings give us a same desire,
The same happiness give us a same song.

The sunshine wants to permeate all of the languages,
The spring wants to pass on the friendly story,
The same feelings give us the same desire,
The same happiness give us the same song.

I had heard this song and had known some of its tone years ago, but, I was not sure that's a popular song until my vocal music lesson last night.:-) This was the second time that I learned to sing a popular song. I have not mastered how to sing a popular song yet, but, I would really like to help you to improve your listening level via hearing a Chinese popular song while let you know more about Chinese culture. So, I tried to sing it for you here. :-) I do hope it is helpful and you will enjoy it. :-)
