Parallel structure

Just do it. The worst part about the gravy trains is the

abrupt stops. Revenge is a dish best served a la mode. Objects were closer than they appeared. Something special in the air.

Clichés

我是天空裏的一片雲，偶爾投影在你的波心——　　你不必訝異，　　無須歡欣——在轉瞬間消滅了蹤影。

你我相逢在黑夜的海上，你有你的 我有我的 方向；　　你記得也好，　　最好你忘掉，在這交會時互放的光亮！

偶然

I’m a cloud in the sky, reflects occasionally on your mind

You don’t need to be alarmed, neither should you feel amazed

For I’ll be gone in a blink    On the ocean, we met, late in the night, You and your direction, me and mine Keep me in your memory, but better wipe me out

from it There’s a spark when your direction overlaps mine

偶爾飄來一陣雨　點點灑落了滿地 尋覓雨傘下哪個背影最像你　 唉　這真是個無聊的遊戲

偶而飄來一陣雨　點點灑落了滿地 也許雨一停　我就能再見到你　 也許雨該一直下不停

朦朧的眼　朦朧的雨　 臉上交橫的是淚是雨   我在街頭佇立　 心中已經有了決定　但不知小雨是否能將你打醒

抉擇

There is a shower at times and the ground is covered with sprinklingI keep searching and searching all the sight of your back which likes yours the most under the umbrellas.

Such a game seemed all of empty and meaningless to me at all. There is a shower at times and the ground is covered with

sprinkling   When stop raining, I may see you again. Or the rain should not stop in the end.   My eyes get dim and all the rain becomes hazy. I could not tell the drop on my face from the rain or the tears.

I keep standing on the street. Even I was determined. But I still wonder if the rain can turn your

heart back.  

The choice in the rain

空山遙遙，靈雨瀟瀟；晚歸的風，掀起陣陣松濤。

沒有暮鼓，亦不聞鐘敲；只有誦歌，隨風飄搖。

空山幽寂，靈雨瀝瀝；晚歸的風，伴隨絲絲涼意。

沒有殿宇，亦不見頂禮；　只有祥雲，隨風飄移。

在空山的懷抱，我心獨自逍遙；在空山的懷抱，我心獨自逍遙。

空山靈雨

The faraway mountain, the whistling windThe late wind whiff the pine wave

  Without playing the drums, without ringing the bell

Only hymn of praise swings in the wind.

The secluded mountain, the pattering of the rain. The late wind with little cool.   No palace and no prostrate. Only clouds floating in the air.    Stay in the mountain, my mind is leisurely and

carefree. Stay in the mountain, my mind is leisurely and

carefree.

你沉默我不再詢問，當你的笑容變得陌生；你的哀愁我再也不介意，因為我不再看見你。  今晚的約定你已體會，這是最後的一場電影；我們因不瞭解而相識，我們因瞭解而分離。  在人潮中不必說些什麼？因為我們再也聽不見；我們在聲浪之中淹沒，在聲浪中淹沒。這是最後的一場電影，這是不見傷感的分

散場電影

I stopped asking when you were in silence and your smile went out of past.

I have been cold to you since I was away from your sight evermore.

  I believe that you already realize the appointment in tonight This is the last time we go to the movies; In the beginning, we don’t understand each other and met Finally, we understand each other and separated.   In a swarm of people, we do not have to say anything because we could not hear anything anymore. We are drowned by voice and being drowned in the noise. It was a break-up without sadness in our last movie.

The last movies

誰在遠方哭泣了？ 為什麼那麼傷心呀？ 騎上金馬看看去， 那是昔日。

誰在遠方哭泣了？ 為什麼那麼傷心呀？ 騎上灰馬看看去， 那是明日。

歌 誰在遠方哭泣了？ 為什麼那麼傷心呀？

騎上白馬看看去，那是戀。

誰在遠方哭泣了？ 為什麼那麼傷心呀？ 騎上黑馬看看去， 那是死。

Who is weeping far away there?

How could it sound so sorrow?

Get on the golden horse to see what that is.

 That is the past.   Who is weeping far away

there? How could it sound so

sorrow? Get on the gray horse to

see what that is.  That is the future.  

Weep   Who is weeping far away

there? How could it sound so

sorrow? Get on the white horse to

see what that is.  That is the love.   Who is weeping far away

there? How could it sound so

sorrow? Get on the horse to see

what that is.  That is the death.
