So today I will post another lyric. This time I will posting an old song from a quiteContinue reading “Moonlake’s Lyrics (14)”

Moonlake’s Lyrics (13)
I haven’t posted one in ages and since I’m feeling too slack today (or rather let’s say I spent a long time on Hangout today), I’m doing today’s post on another set of song lyrics. This one is fairly deep. I can’t say that I’ve experienced all of the things talked about in the songContinue reading “Moonlake’s Lyrics (13)”
Moonlake’s Lyrics (12)
What is your ultimate pursuit in life? Everyone has different answers. For me, it has always been something internal that I seek so the lyrics that I’m going to share today chimes with me particularly. The title of the song is Extraordinary Bum. It is the theme song for a HK drama whose protagonist isContinue reading “Moonlake’s Lyrics (12)”

This set of lyrics that I want to share is about breaking up. Moreover, it’s about positive breaking up and that’s what I like about it. It’s from a Cantonese song about ten years’ back. The song title roughly translate to “good start, good finish”. Hugging each other with a smile till it’s time to letContinue reading “Moonlake’s Lyrics (11)”
Moonlake’s Lyrics (10)
I had been sick for the last week so skipped the Friday post last week and the post yesterday. I got better but then it got worse again and I’m still very much plagued by a blocked nose so I’ve decided that the make-up post for last Friday will have to come later. Today’s lyricsContinue reading “Moonlake’s Lyrics (10)”
Moonlake’s Lyrics (9)
Another set of lyrics touching on the archaic Chinese feel, theme song for a popular HK series around 5 years ago.

Moonlake’s Lyrics (8)
Today’s lyrics is one that I like because of its “empowering women” theme. The chorus sort of turns the direction a little towards love because it is the theme song of a HK TV drama. Its title translates to “Mere (little) women, half the sky” Don’t laugh at me for thinking like a man LoftyContinue reading “Moonlake’s Lyrics (8)”
Moonlake’s Lyrics (7)
Today I will be sharing a set of lyrics that has an archaic Chinese theme for no other reason besides that I personally like it. Others might or might not be able to use it as an inspiration prompt. Also, my translation might be somewhat off given the archaic theme but I did my best. ToContinue reading “Moonlake’s Lyrics (7)”
Moonlake’s Lyrics (6)
For my 2nd post of today, I would share the lyrics of another song also by the title of “Wide sea and broad sky”. This one is in Mandarin and a newer song. Personally, I like the other one slightly more (probably because it’s in my mother tongue and anyway I like old songs more).Continue reading “Moonlake’s Lyrics (6)”
Moonlake’s Lyrics (5)
Today I’m going to share the lyrics of another classic aka old Cantonese song that is inspiring. The title of the song translates to “Wide sea and broad sky”, a term used to describe how open and wide nature (the world) is. Today I watch the snows drift by on a cold night DriftContinue reading “Moonlake’s Lyrics (5)”
