《有你真的会快乐吗?》 ("Will I Really Be Happy If I Have You"?)

《有你真的会快乐吗》 was sung by Jeff Chang (張信哲).  Jeff Chang released his first album in 1989. Since then, I had heard about him and his songs. Then, one year, he came to our university to perform a mini concert. Since then, I fell in love with his songs and his singing. Wow, he was really superb! 

《有你真的会快乐吗》 is one of my favourite songs sung by Jeff Chang. Both Lyrics and music were composed by 小虫. The whole song was about the hesitation going on in the mind, whether he should go forward and confess his love. He was not sure if he would really be happy with the girl he liked as he had also heard a lot of negative things about love. He was afraid the relationship might not turn out well and ended up hurting both of them.

歌词:

关于爱我没有太把握
就算我年纪不小也不敢太过强求

爱的悲哀我已听的太多太多

我也害怕这结果会伤害你还有我


有人说有爱没有寂寞
有人说有爱也拥有伤痛
有人说有爱才是生活
到底爱是什么样的感受

妳的爱我已等了好久好久
就算我年纪不小我也不敢轻易接受
妳的拥有我已想的太多太多
我是不是该放弃担忧勇敢的爱个够

有人说爱会令人感动

有人说爱也会令人心痛
当我已经决定爱你之后
是否就应该不要再去担心什么

有妳真的会快乐吗
天知道妳的心里会不会有一个我
爱情真的会快乐吗
天知道什么事会发生在爱妳之后
有妳真的会快乐吗
天知道妳的心里会不会有一个我
想妳真的会快乐吗
天知道妳是不是我天天的那个梦

which can be translated as:

Regarding love, I am not too sure.
Even though I am not that young, I will not force it. 
The grief caused by love, I have heard too much 
I am also afraid the ending may hurt you and me

Some people say there is no loneliness in love
Some people say if you have love, you will also have pain
Some people say love is life
So what exactly is the feeling of love?

I've been waiting for your love for a long long time.
Even though I am not that young, I dare not accept it too easily.
I've thought about having you for a long long time. Should I just stop worrying and bravely move forward?

Some people say love is touching
Some people say love will also be painful
After I have decided to love you
Should I just stop worrying?

Will I really be happy if I have you? 
Heaven knows whether you have a place for me in your heart?
Will love really be happy? 
Heaven knows what will happen after I loved you.
Will I really be happy if I have you? 
Heaven knows whether you have a place for me in your heart?
Will I really be happy thinking of you? 
Heaven knows whether your are the dream that I think of every day?

《大海》("The Sea")

《大海》("The Sea") was a song that I've liked for many many years. The tune of this song is more on higher notes and very good to sing along (at least for me). I was glad I was able to find the Karaoke MV for this song a few years ago. 


The original singer was 张雨生 (Tom Chang). This song was very popular when it was released in 1992. He had a high vocal and could sing very well too. It was a pity that he also passed away due to a car accident. He died in 1997 at the age of 31.

This is the link to the Youtube video:

The lyrics were written by 陈大力, music was composed by 陈大力/陈秀男 


歌词:


从那遥远海边
慢慢消失的你
本来模糊的脸
竟然渐渐清晰
想要说些什么
又不知从何说起
只有把它放在心底

茫然走在海边
看那潮来潮去
徒劳无功
想把每朵浪花记清
想要说声爱你
却被吹散在风里
猛然回头你在那里

如果大海能够 唤回曾经的爱
就让我用一生等待

如果深情往事 你已不再留恋
就让它随风飘远
如果大海能够 带走我的哀愁
就像带走每条河流
所有受过的伤 所有流过的泪
我的爱 请全部带走



Which can be translated as:

From the distant sea
You slowly disappeared
Originally a fuzzy face
became clearer
I wanted to tell you something
but did not know where to start
I could only place it in my heart

Dazedly walking on the beach
Watching the tides come and go
I tried fruitlessly
to remember clearly every spray
I wanted to say I love you
But was blown away by the wind
Suddenly I turn back and you were not there.

If the sea can recall past love
Let me wait a lifetime
If you no longer recall with nostalgia our affectionate memories
Just let it be gone with the wind
If the sea can take away my sorrow
Just like it did to every river
Please take away all the injuries suffered, all the tears and all my love

《心肝宝贝》 ("Darling")

《心肝宝贝》 ("Darling") is such a lovely song and is the theme song of the chinese movie 《龙凤店》("Adventure of the King"). It is sung by 任贤齐 (Richie Ren) and 徐熙媛 (Barbie Hsu) who were also the lead actor and lead actress in the movie. The melody was soft and lyrics were very sweet.



歌词:

天是那么大 人是那么多
偏偏让我遇见你
你是那么真 你是那么好
我曾怀疑我在作梦

不再一个人 心事有人听
漫漫长夜在一起
和你数着星 海边迎着风
只要有你 我就安心

你是我的心肝宝贝 爱你爱到无路可退
这一辈子 都不后悔
陪你上山下海 陪你黑夜白天
快乐伤悲都无所谓

你是我的心肝宝贝 爱你爱到掏心掏肺
希望你也真心相对
我要为你干杯 我要为你喝醉
因为你是我的宝贝

which translate as:

The world is so big.  There are so many people.
Yet I've met you.
You are so real.  You are so good.
I once thought I was dreaming.

We are no longer alone.  There is someone to confide in.
Spending the night together.
Counting the stars together.  Enjoying the sea breeze
As long as you are by my side, I will feel relieved.

You are my darling.  I loved you till there's no way to run.
I will never regret.
I will accompany you from the mountains to the seas.  I will keep you company day and night.
Be it joy or sorrow.

You are my darling.  I loved you till I bare my soul in front of you.
I hope you are also true to me.
I want to toast for you.  I want to get drunk for you.
Because you are my darling.
