Songs for Cloud…

It’s only fair that he has some Chinese songs, as his heritage is Chinese (most recent incarnation being mixed Slavic-Chinese).

Here’s one of my favorite songs in Chinese:

Lyrics in English (my own translation):

Life is like a river, sometimes peaceful, sometimes wild

The present is like a lock, imprisoning me in its clutches, and I can’t get free

This life is like a sharp knife, cutting me open again and again

But I know I want that happiness, to soar like the highest skies

I want to fly higher and higher, dancing in the wind’s embrace

I want to fly higher and higher, spread my wings and soar with the wind

Fly higher

I keep flying, I keep searching, but I can’t find what I’m looking for

If I truly want to be free, I must cut away the net that traps me

I want to live a blazing life, I want the sky to be the purest blue

I know I want that happiness, to soar like the highest skies
