When Stars Fall into the River
I wrote the lyrics when just landed in NYC, reflecting on my confusions about path and future journey. I am very grateful to have completed this song and to bring it forth.
天上 的星星 熄 灭了
Stars of the sky have faded
孩子你别怕 就 睡吧
Fret not, child, just go to sleep
妈妈的怀抱 是一个
An embrace from mother
孩子构筑的 梦啊
Is a dream built by a child
天上的星星 熄 灭咯
Stars of the sky have dimmed
孩子你别怕
Fret not, child
因为妈妈就在这里
For mother is here
即使妈妈不在这里啊
Even though mother isn’t here
听 万丈的月光
Listen, boundless light from the moon
听 那是城市中的宁静
Listen, breathless quiet of city
听 淡淡的日光
Listen, morrow’s hazy sunlight
那是生活里的希望
There’s hope in life
天上的星星熄灭了
Stars of the sky have ebbed
孩子你别怕
Fret not, child
困倦的孩子 闭上眼
Close your eyes, wearied child
她就渐渐变成了燕
Steadily, a swallow she become
