Lyrics in English :
I see your eyes, and I feel like I know it
let me express it passionately, don't be shy

as if you are with me, we lived a life together
within the same picture in my heart since ages

years I been dreaming of you
I call you, hold me close
I haven't been living for days
I am waiting for you to give me life

I missed you, I missed you
years we haven't been together
I haven't been living for days
I am waiting for you to give me life

I missed you, I missed you
years we haven't been together
I haven't been living for days
I am waiting for you to give me life

you are the best gift
God send it to me
you'r the moon at my nights
There is a lot to reveal

O the world changed in my eyes
I met your love, and in a second I fell for it

years I been dreaming of you
I call you, hold me close
I haven't been living for days
I am waiting for you to give me life

I missed you, I missed you
years we haven't been together
I haven't been living for days
I am waiting for you to give me life

I missed you, I missed you
years we haven't been together
I haven't been living for days
I am waiting for you to give me life

I love you, and I will keep saying it
before I say it out loud
come and hold me
let's say it together

I missed you, I missed you
years we haven't been together
I haven't been living for days
I am waiting for you to give me life

I missed you, I missed you
years we haven't been together
I haven't been living for days
I am waiting for you to give me life

Recently I make a friend from Israel, so I am very curious and go to Internet to search about history of Jew and Israel, and after that I know there was a war between Israel and Lebanon in this summer, also I know many good belly dancers are from Lebanon, that's why I want to find more about Lebanon, I found this song from someone's blog, I spent a lot of time to search where to download this song, finally I find it. This song really touch my heart deeply, I would like to share with you.

Most of civilians don't want to have a war, this song sing by a Lebanese singer Elissa and a Scotland singer Chris De Burgh, you will love it and listen over and over again.

由黎巴嫩歌手Elissa和英國歌手Chris De Burgh合作演繹的歌曲《黎巴嫩之夜》,傳遍了全世界,人們彷彿從他們的歌聲裡感受到了那段飽受戰火的黎巴嫩歷史。

Lyrics in English :

It was late in a Lebanese restaurant, in the heat of a Lebanese night,
There was dancing, people were singing,
She came in from the garden outside,
And in her eyes I saw the stars,
And I felt something happen in my heart;
Then I knew I was going to meet her in the heat of a Lebanese night,
And the girl inside the woman, who came over to sit by my side,
And when she smiled, the whole world stopped,
It was then I heard the echoes of a child;
* And did you go to your bed with a sweet lullaby,
And the sound of the guns in the night,
And did you dance in the fields, did you run for your life,
From the hell that came down from the sky?
On a Lebanese night, on a Lebanese night; *
We went down to the edge of the water,
by the light of a Lebanese dawn,
And she told me all the stories of her beautiful land in the war,
Her tears fell down, the sun came up,
And I saw again the young girl in her eyes;
(Repeat *)
All of my life, all I have known,
Only a place where peace cannot go;
All over the world, the gift from before,
Nothing is left for the children of war;
(Repeat *)
I will be waiting, in the Lebanon.

中文翻譯歌詞:

在一個炎熱的黎巴嫩的深夜,黎巴嫩餐館裡人們在跳舞人們在歌唱,
她從外面的花園中走進來,她的眼睛像群星閃爍,
一種奇妙的感覺從我心底升起。
在一個炎熱的黎巴嫩的深夜,我注定要遇見她,
這個如同天真少女的女人,走過來坐在我身邊,
她的微笑使世界停止,那時我聽到了一個孩子的回聲。

昨夜你的睡夢中,有沒有甜蜜的搖籃曲,和著那深夜的槍聲?
你是在田野裡翩翩起舞,還是在戰火中奪路而逃,
從那天空中突然降下的地獄中逃生?
在一個黎巴嫩的夜晚,在一個黎巴嫩的夜晚。

在一個海邊的黎巴嫩的清晨,她向我講述了所有的故事,
講述戰爭中她那美麗的家園,她的淚流下來,太陽升起來,
在她的眼中,我又看到了那個掩藏在女人外表下的女孩。

我的生命中,我說知道的,只是一個和平不能到達的地方。
世界的一切,祖先留下的禮物,戰爭中的孩子們卻什麼都沒有。

昨夜你的睡夢中,有沒有甜蜜的搖籃曲,和著那深夜的槍聲?
你是在田野裡翩翩起舞,還是在戰火中奪路而逃,
從那天空中突然降下的地獄中逃生?
在一個黎巴嫩的夜晚,在一個黎巴嫩的夜晚,
我會等待你,在黎巴嫩。

Love is silly

I went to watch the opera Turandot, the story was in Peking, China, but it is a Italy opera, so most of them weared a mask.

The story was about if any prince seeking to marry Princess Turandot must answer three riddles - and if he fails, he will be executed. A handsome youth, Prince Calaf, smitten with the princess's beauty, but Turandot has turned against all men, determining that none shall ever possess her.

She poses her first question: what is born each night and dies each dawn? Hope, Calaf answers correctly. Unnerved, Turandot continues: what flickers red and warm like a flame, yet is not fire? Blood, replies Calaf after a moment's pause. Shaken, Turandot delivers her third riddle: what is like ice but burns? A tense silence prevails until Calaf cries Turandot! The crowd gives thanks to the triumph. Calaf generously offers Turandot a riddle of his own: if she can learn his name by dawn, he will forfeit his life.

Immediately a proclamation is made: on pain of death, no one in Peking shall sleep until Turandot learns the stranger's name. The soldiers drag in a slave girl, Liu and his father, Timur and threaten Calaf with daggers. Liu cries out that she alone knows the stranger's identity. Though tortured, she remains silent and only reveals Love as the secret of such endurance. With the torture intensified, Liu snatches a dagger from a soldier and kills herself.

Turandot remains alone to confront Calaf, who at length takes her in his arms, forcing her to kiss him. Feeling physical passion for the first time, Turandot weeps. The prince, now sure of his victory, tells her his name. As the people hail the emperor, Turandot approaches his throne, announcing that his name is - Love.

When I saw that slave girl, Liu died for her master for love, I cried. I don't understand why many princes would died by Turandot's beauty. Even when Liu died for him, Prince Calaf still want to win Turandot's heart. love is silly

Let us dance

I learned something from a movie-let us dance, she said why people want to get married, because people need someone to be their witnesses. People need to have each one of families and friends, even children to be their witnesses on their marriage life, if without them, their life doesn't mean anythings.

Not Here To Be Loved

I went to watch a French movie last night, call NOT HERE TO BE LOVED, it is a story about Tango and love, it talks about people are busy in life and job, actually everybody have desire and dream inside of body, some of them grow up because of courage and passionate, some of them bury their desire and dream because of society. How to balance reality and dream, and how to choose them, almost everybody can't hide this issue and have to study and learn it.

Sometimes I have courage and desire like a ARIES, sometimes I am afraid of disappointment like a CAPRICORN. After I watched this movie, I know I bury my desire for a long long time......
