I just discovered a beautiful song & fell deeply in love with it. I rarely listen to Chinese songs, most of the time only Korean or R&B..hehe..but when i came over to Canada & Ber always play this song called 'Jiang nan' by Lin junjie (JJ) while he drives long distances along the endless expressway. Its sooooo indulging..especially when you look out from the window, looking at the clouds slowly floating across the sky & the wide patch of greenery with occassional wild birds soaring high above the sky. *Purrrfect.

I found the english translation of this song, cos i couldn't really understand what he was singing in chinese & it made me so touched, i almost teared. U have to listen to the song & understand the meaning,its amazing. (Ber said JJ wrote this song himself..a talent! He could write such a profound chinese song & made it sound so R&B)

The wind stops here and sticks,
sticking together the travelers' thoughts,

The rain stops here and bounds into threads,
threading us to wander the world,
You are here - that is fate,
fate, written on the three lifetimes stone
love is one ten-thoussandths sweetness,
I'd rather be buried in it.

Through the cycle of days and years,
I study your face profoundly,
the face filled with gentleness from anger,
and tenderness from whine.

Not knowing the broiling pains of emotion,
we thought love changed as fast as the wind and the clouds.
We believed that passionate love, even if just for one day,
was enough to replace 'forever',
and that time would suddenly hold still to freeze that moment.

Not knowing how to express tenderness,
we thought true love was just a an ancient fairytale,
How much pain in the misery of breakup, how thick the pain really is,
with our dreams buried in the fog and rain of River South,
finally, we understand with our broken hearts.
