風光

靈感始於有一陣子腦中不斷浮起的古典樂旋律
沒有什麼古典音樂素養的我 還是問了Juno才知道是Dvorak的幽默曲(Humoresque)
想到這段旋律的時候 伴隨的畫面是先前環島時看到的美好東部風光
菲律賓湛藍的海岸、以及甘肅大山裡連綿的草坡
便想完成一首輕快的歌 把這旋律用進去

我自己總是在出走時得到身心靈的放鬆
不知主要是美景 還是"離開" 我想兩者皆有關係吧
也因此愛上了參加服務隊 除了一掃平時心靈的疲憊 也得到不少其他收穫

我想我們都需要給自己一個出走以及充電的機會
也許外在的感受會稀釋 但內化的力量和記憶會陪我們一路走下去
當塵囂與紛擾再起 想起曾經的感動 就足以讓我們一笑置之

共勉之囉

The inspiration was from Dvorak's "Humoresque" (Thank Juno for letting me know the title)
A lot of memories of volunteer trips just came out as I think of the melody
So I decided to write a song about this feeling

The beautiful countryside view in eastern Taiwan
The deep blue water on Philippine's beach
The sunlight shines through cloud on grasslands in Gansu
All the working scenes in southeastern US
Those are all unforgettable images for me cause they not only are only beautiful and amazing but also remind me that life can be simple, we can be happy by seizing the moment.

暖洋洋夏日午後 金黃色的陽光撒落
草坡前一片綠油油
左心房輕輕跳動 這種感動前所未有
一切像琥珀色的夢

邁出輕快的大步 走出戶外 拋開忙碌
腳踏單車 輕鬆上路
目標天邊的彩虹 放膽追逐 直到日暮
感受地平線的溫度

別停留在昨日的神傷
生活並不只有匆忙
沈澱了心情就能讓人意氣風發
隨時都是幸福時光

夕陽餘暉的光芒 總是令人心頭盪漾
今天將結束又何妨
放任奔馳的想像 放空執著 盡情流浪
蒼穹是我今天的家

Do what you love, love what you’re doing
No matter what’s in your way, remember life must be going
When it stops raining, let the sunlight in
Embrace the world and all beautiful things

Why are we so busy? Why not take it easy?
Just face it, accept it, then deal with it, and leave it
Let’s smile and all the difficulties can be solved by you, and me
