Av längtan till dig ( because of the longing for you )

En vacker låt. Till dig som har hittat den personen, och till dig som fortfarande letar.
A beautiful song. For you who has found the one, and for you who is still looking for the one.
 
Love playing it loudly and listening to it quitely. Today, tried to translate the text into English:
 
Av längtan till dig
(because of the longing for you)
CajsaStina Åkerström / Åsa Jinder
Musik: Jan Krantz


I en evighet levde jag som om du inte fanns.
(In eternity, I lived as if you didn't exist.)
I alla drömmar var du ändå nära, så underbart nära.
(In all my dreams, you were still close, so wonderfully close.)
Och jag trodde jag fann dig, men du va nån annanstans.
(And I thougth I found you, but you were in somewhere else.)
Och varje gång jag funnit nån så såg jag att drömmen inte va sann.
(And everytime I found someone, I could see that my dream was not like that.)

Tänk alla famnar jag lämnat av längtan till dig,
(Think about all the arms I've left because of the longing for you,)
för jag trodde att du fanns och väntade mig.
(because I thought that you existed and waited for me.)
Ja, alla dagar jag vandrat så sorgsen och trött,
(Yes, all the days I've walked so sadly and tiredly,)
för att möta den vackraste mänska jag nånsin mött.
(just for meeting the most beautiful person I've even met.)

Det var enkelt och vackert, du sa att du väntat mig.
(It was simple and beautiful, you said that you'd been waiting for me)
Jag kunde ana att det fanns en himmel på jorden, jag såg den.
(I could imagine there was a heaven on earth, I saw it.)
Och du bad mig att leva mitt liv alltid nära dig.
(And you asked me to live all my life close to you.)
Jag följde dina steg och allt jag någonsin drömt om fanns där för mig.
(I followed your steps, and everything I'd ever dreamed about was there for me.)

Det finns ingen som lockat mitt hjärta så underbart:
(There is no one who has attracted my heart so wonderfully:)
Med all din ömhet får du sorg och smärta att sakta försvinna.
(with all your tenderness, sadness and pain slowly disappear.)
Alla skuggor, allt mörker som förr var så uppenbart
(All the shadows, all the darkness that was so obvious before)
det skingras och tillsammans ser vi ljuset som stiger med solens fart
(they disperse, and together we see the light that raises up in the sun's peace. )

Drowsy

I don't know what reminds me this song again --- one of my favorite Chinese songs, but even my best friends can't like it. I try to translate it into English according to my understanding.
 
It makes me recall something everytime when I listen to it... When I was 2, I had 41 degree's feber for a week, my parents didn't think I could survive, and the feber came to me again when I was 6, thank to God, I'm still strong and healthy after that. I was a quiet kid, even a bit dissocial, until I suddenly became outgoing during the high school. My first toy was a red tumbler, I can't remember how many times I disassembled it and screwed it back together again, it's still standing in my room in China. I remember the first boy I liked when I was 11, and I do remember how nervous I was when I had my first kiss...
 
I love you, mamma, papa, all my friends in these 24 years, and the ones who loved me or I loved, and the ones loving me now and I'm loving. My life is combined by all of us, you effected me and made me what I am.
 
      Drowsy                                                          催眠
  
The taste of my first piece of cake                                    第一口蛋糕的滋味
The comfort from my first toy                                          第一件玩具带来的安慰
Sunrise sunset                                                               太阳下山太阳下山
Ice cream was crying                                                      冰淇淋流泪
 
The taste of my second piece of cake                              第二口蛋糕的滋味
The comfort from my second toy                                    第二件玩具带来的安慰
Wind was blowing the wind had fled                               大风吹大风吹
Popcorn was so pretty                                                   爆米花好美
 
From the beginning to the end                                       从头到尾
Who do I forget who do I remember                              忘记了谁想起了谁
From the beginning to the end                                       从头到尾
Let me count it again                                                     再数一回再数一回
Did I miss anything                                                       有没有荒废
                                         
enenlala enenlala enenlala enenla
 
The first time I kissed somebody's lips                             第一次吻别人的嘴
The first time I needed medicin to cure a disease             第一次生病了要喝药水
Sunrise sunset                                                              太阳下山太阳下山
Ice cream was crying                                                     冰淇淋流泪
 
The second time I kissed somebody's lips                        第二次吻别人的嘴
The second time I needed medicin to cure a disease        第二次生病了需要喝药水
Wind was blowing the wind had fled                               大风吹大风吹
Popcorn was so pretty                                                    爆米花好美

From the beginning to the end
Who do I forget who do I remember
From the beginning to the end
Let me count it again
Did I miss anything

Morn or dusk changed so fast                                        忽然天亮忽然天黑
Everything is like that                                                    诸如此类
 
I've gone too far                                                         远走高飞
I've flown too high 
For 1,2,3 years                                                            一二三岁
4,5,6 years                                                                  四五六岁
Or hundreds of autumns
And thousands of springs                                             千秋万岁
 
From the beginning to the end
Who do I forget who do I remember
From the beginning to the end
Let me count it again
Did I miss anything

what you desire.

I'm really glad this evening, because I've found the songs which I really desired. I found an emule resource with all the music tracks from movie <closer>. Especially the one named <world outside>. I tried hard to find this song last year, I even asked all the person I could turn to. But it looked like there was no way to find this song on internet. Today, finally I got the song I desired.
 
 I was attracted by <closer>. The first time I saw it became the 4th time, becaue I couldn't stop to watch it over and over again, and I watched it again last night. It is an excellent film, for me, it's the best film I've seen in these two years. But I think it's only suitable for some groups of people. The film is about the unsure elements of people's relationship. Especially it reflected that there is only one tiny boundary between "be lover" and "be stranger". Love could be so strong that either time or interrupter could make it fade. But love is also so frail that it cannot bear any secret or questioning attitude. So it is hardy to run a relationship, and the film makes me to think about  how to deal with the relationship properly. Because there will come something for a relationship that might take the two persons to the boudary of "be lover or stranger". Maybe one party of the relationship would have to make a choice between "be a liar" or "be a loser". I think the film is implying that "be a liar" is somehow the better thing to do to keep the relationship, because sometimes the truth can be really hurt.
 
Alice was the most successful one in those complex relationships. She simply played her roll by following her heart. She could love a person with all her world, and she could definitely leave the relationship when the love was fading. That true personality was so sparkling in the film, I can't forget the scene when she said: I don't love you any more, goodbye.
 
I think the most tragic ending of a story is not everybody dies, but everybody lives sorrowly. <closer> has the tragic ending. 
 
The film is very straight forward on sex, love, betray and loyality, maybe a bit too forward for  somebody. But the desire for love which is running in the music is so real that can hurt. 
 

World Outside Lyrics

Tell me your secret
What you desire
I will still be there for you
And tell me you need it
Tell me something you're not
I will still be there for you

And say you believe it
All of your lies
Tell me you feel it
And don't compromise, oh no
I will still be there for you

Your light in my dreams
Light up my skin
You're so far away
You're holding it in
I'm looking around
Watching it spin
Got my world outside
It's changing
Something within

Tell me you'll reach it
Some of the time
What you're searching for
Cos the love that's around you
Gets you down
Kick you to the floor

So tell me you see it
With your own eyes
Tell me the sky is falling now
In your world
I will still be there for you

Your light in my dreams
Light up my skin
Waiting so long
Time to begin
I'm looking around
Watching it spin
Got my world outside
It's changing
Something within

So tell me the reasons
Show me the signs
Say you desire
Desire only now
In this world
It's our world

Your light in my dreams
Light up my skin
You're so far away
You're holding it in
I'm looking around
Watching it spin
Got my world outside
It's changing
Something within

It's our world
Time moves on
And time moves on
In our world

BTW, I like Judy Law's look, he is good-looking.

When you can’t love him any more

        When you can’t love him any more,
  Please don’t pretend to make up for your giving up with your care.
  Because in his eyes there is still waiting for hopes
  Which you can’t give him yet.
    
  When you have decided to leave him,
  Please don’t hypocritically heal his sadness with your unwanted sympathy.
  Because your careless hesitation will bring him even more sorrows,
  And put out the flames of his hopes.
    
  When he has learnt to forget you,
  Please don’t riot his tranquility with your loneliness.
  Because there is no longer any relationship between his life and you.
    
  When they are obsessed with mutual company
  Please don’t try to find out how they are getting along.
  Because you have left him alone,
  When he needed you most.

something about love

Friendship is love minus sex and plus reason.
Love is friendship plus sex and minus reason.
  
To love is nothing. To be loved is something.
To love and be loved is everything.
  
You may only be one person to the world
but you may also be the world to one person.
  
You know when you love someone when you want them to
even if their happiness means that you’re not a part of it.
  
Don’t marry a person you can live with,
marry somebody you can’t live without.
  
Friendship often ends in love,
but love in friendship-never.
  
Love will die if held too tightly,
love will fly if held too lightly.
  
A man falls in love through his eyes,
a woman through her ears.
  
love is like standing in the wet cement,
the longer you stay the harder it is to leave.
And you can never go without leaving your shoes behind.
  
The perfect marriage begins when each partners believes they got better than they deserve.
  
Kindness in words creates confidence.
Kindness in thinking creates profoundness.
Kindness in giving creates love.
