yay! the first week of the school term has ended, and nothing bad has happened much :P
of course, after the first interaction with the new teachers, i must say that i dont really like some of the teachers. im okay with the teachers that followed up with us though
anyway, im not sure how many of you all watched The Little Nyonya on CH8, but i watched it and i really liked it alot :)
so, today, I will introduce the theme song of The Little Nyonya, 如燕 Ru Yan.


hmm. this is the extended version of the theme song, and i find it really nice.

what i noticed is that, after hearing lots of pop songs and rock, I found Ru Yan a refreshing song to listen to. It's melody was relaxing and flowy, giving the impression of it being a soulful song.
The lyrics are also extremely meaningful: When you examine each stanza, you realise that the lyrics are written like a poem, and the words are graceful and impressive.

愿意合上眼才能美梦无边
别让悔熏乌了从前

也许碎片才能让回忆展颜
何妨瓷花拼凑明天

谁带我寻获幸福的模
却自己谜中困锁

谁为我留下缱绻的天涯
信物是抹晚霞

Chorus:
思念如燕它飞舞舌尖
若是真爱配尝几分苦甜

意念婆娑时间里推磨
追随到何处才结果

燕如针线在青空缝编
几幅女红将以泪缀点

誓言斑驳情雾只是经过
风雨中且让我盈步婀娜


I have inserted the lyrics, hopefully you will be able to realise how nice the lyrics are,
and also the english translation, credits go to yournemesis , Channel8 Forums.

Sweet dreams abound when the eyes softly close,

Do not let remorse blemished the past…

Perhaps it is the shattered fragments that allow memories to unfold,

So why not assemble the broken vase to paint a vision of tomorrow?

Who will bring me to seek after my happiness?

But ended up lost and trapped…

Who will leave me the deepest love at the ends of the world?

This keepsake will smear the afterglow.

Like a swallow, my heart yearnings flutter away at the tip of the tongue.

If this is true love, it will be a bittersweet love.

My thoughts are in a whirl as they linger with time.

Where will it be for this to come to an end?

Like the needles and thread, the swallow weave its way through the sky.

The embroideries are going to be embellished with tears...

Promises are vague and romance is just a passing…

In times of hardships, let my steps be filled with grace…
