Original Lyrics for: A Letter to Myself (給自己的信)

Released: 2009 by Cantopop singer Sherman Chung (鍾舒漫). 

很相信 能成就大爱 很相信 能炫耀自己
很贪心 愿天天很多 美好的派对
写封信 来留住大志 写封信 来提示自己
写得低 是心中很多 似诗的细碎

怀疑我 当天几多岁 令我写了一句不怕流泪
怀疑我 永远不会累 就来十行列明十个壮举

让我闯出新世界 交出真个性
假使想爱 必会找到亲爱伴侣
突然十年便过去 方知岁月冷漠似水
就算笔迹不会变 纸张不会皱
偏偏想笑 竟会得到灰暗情绪 默然从头读过去
一句一句太乾脆 一个一个已粉碎

祝福我 能遊历万国 怎麽我还奴役自己
不甘心 在天天很多 错失的證据
这封信 如明亮大镜 这封信能明白自己
写得低 但怎麽抛低 理想的散去

怀疑我 当天几多岁 令我写了一句不怕流泪
怀疑我 永远不会累 就来十行列明十个壮举

让我闯出新世界 交出真个性
假使想爱 必会找到亲爱伴侣
突然十年便过去 方知岁月冷漠似水
就算笔迹不会变 纸张不会皱
偏偏想笑 竟会得到灰暗情绪 默然从头读过去
一句一句太乾脆 一个一个已粉碎

让我闯出新世界 交出真个性
假使想爱 必会找到亲爱伴侣
突然十年便过去 方知岁月冷漠似水
就算纸张不会皱 甚麽都生绣
偏偏想笑 竟会得到灰暗情绪 默然从头读过去
一句一句太乾脆 一个一个已粉碎

很相信 能成就大爱 很相信能炫耀自己
很贪心 愿天天很多 美好的派对

[ English Translation ]

I'm very convinced, I'm able to attain great love.
I'm very convinced, I'm able to show myself off.
I'm very greedy, wanting everyday very much a glorious party.

Writing a letter, to set down my big goals
Writing a letter, to call attention to myself.
Write it down, it's as if the many thoughts of my heart are like fragmented pieces of a poem.

*I'm suspicious how old I was that day. It made me write a sentence unafraid of tears.
I'm suspicious why I never get tired. Because of that, 10 lines will realize 10 feats.

Allow me to rush out into a new world, handing out my real personality
If only thinking of love will necessarily find my dear companion.
Suddenly, 10 years pass easily, letting me know life's years are as cold and neglected as water.
Even if the handwriting doesn't change, or the paper won't wrinkle
Even then I want to laugh, unexpectedly obtaining gloomy feelings.
Silently, read from the beginning
One sentence, one sentence, too straight-forward *

One thing, one thing, already has broken.

Bless me, I'm able to travel across 10,000 countries.
Why am I still enslaving myself?
Unable to resign myself to mistakingly losing so much evidence day by day.

This letter is like a big bright mirror.
This letter makes it so I can understand myself
Write it down, but how does one set down an ideal separation?

Repeat *

Allow me to rush out into a new world, handing out my real personality
If only thinking of love will necessarily find my dear companion.
Suddenly, 10 years pass easily, letting me know life's years are as cold and neglected as water.
Even if paper won't wrinkle and everything rusts
Even then I want to laugh, only to obtain gloomy feelings.
Silently, read from the beginning
One sentence, one sentence, too straight-forward
One thing, one thing, already has broken.

I'm very convinced, I'm able to attain great love.
I'm very convinced, I'm able to show myself off.
I'm very greedy, wanting everyday very much a glorious party.
