燕之戀

Johnson Gao

今天為2022å¹´2月6æ—¥, è¾²æ›†æ­£æœˆåˆ�六。寫此七律以奉去年一網å�‹

為我的 <箭與歌之曲> 寫的幾首燕歸來詩。

 

殘瓴簷下燕營巢;

 é£›ä¾†é£›åŽ»å•£æ³¥è�‰ã€‚

我�燕兒為何故,

�愛此屋似破廟?

(燕兒唧唧回語�;

哲學�深�境高:)

摩天大樓看似好;

 çŽ»ç’ƒæ»´æ»‘悲風繞。

富麗堂煌難安窩;

  å¥ªæˆ‘春光雛å°�鳥。

 

Swallow's Love Song

Johnson Gao

Today is February 6, 2022, the sixth day of the first lunar month. I wrote this seven by eight word poem as a feedback to several poems written by a netizen last year for my Melody of the Arrow and the Song.

Swallows make their nests under the eaves of an old house;

They are flying around carried with mud and hay.

I asked swallows why you are prejudice to select that house,

Which looks like a broken temple?

(Swallow chirps back to me,

although its philosophy is not deep, the artistic conception is high :)

Skyscrapers look splendid;

However, its glass is slippy and it catches fierce wind all around.

The shiny and magnificent halls are difficult to build a nest;

How could we waste spring time for nursing our chicks?

 Teacher Lou: 

The poem Ugly Room said: A mountain does not necessary to be high, it gets fame if there lives a saint; the water body does not necessary to be deep, if there has a dragon, it will show vital spirit. I am sending you a short song that I composed during the coronavirus epidemic period. Short is not affected by my virtue.

Li Bai (A.D.701-762) of Tang Dynasty has written a poem of 20 Chinese characters called as �夜�, or, Quiet Night Thoughts (Nostalgia) in English. The poem is very famous in China and in Japan. Up to date 1314 years have passed. But, very few composers had ever made the song for that poem. Then, Johnson Gao composed a song for it on May 16, 2016. He further enlarged it to 8 voices and made the Karaoke (�拉OK) for you to try. �夜� �白 (公元701~762) 床�明月光, 疑是地上霜。 舉首望明月, (抬頭望明月,) 低頭�故鄉。 Quiet Night Thoughts by Li Bai (A. D. 701~762) Translated by Johnson Gao (English translation by Johnson K. Gao) The bright moonlight is casting over the floor before my bed. It seems to me as like as the frost spreading on the ground. When I raise my head and stare at the bright moon, Bowing my face, I couldn't help thinking of my hometown.

The New Year’s Eve Song

Johnson Gao
November 1, 2023

This is a modified English version for easier singing.
Manuscript was finalized of the trip 
from Huntsville, AL to Nashville, TN.

Hiding gradually the glorious sunset,
It awakens all the lights. 
For the New Year's Eve, we dressed shiny.
Upside down cups we enjoy the old wine.
Singing, dancing, Hallelujah!
May the coming Spring make us wealthy!

It was translated from the Chinese original with words changes for easy to sing in English.

喚醒�家燈光。
我們暢飲, 放�歌唱。
舞姿輕盈飄盪。
舊歲辭別, 一�新�。
開春迎來興旺。.

Love Forever Raymond F. Gao translated in English from the Chinese version by Catherine W. Gao 1998.9 Who brought me to the world? Who taught me how to learn? No great mutual attraction, No happy marriage for sure. Please sip aged wines with merry mood, And dance to delightful songs. Let us all make the party warm. Welcome you everyone! The bright moon and blooming flowers Wish you an hearty love. Heart to heart, soul to soul, May you love forever! Gave me life Mom and Dad. Lit my wisdom sirs and friends. In true love we were born. We wish never to live alone. Dare no waves. Dare no winds. True love must last long. Though seas may dry, rocks may decay. We always keep our vows!
