《Celebration of Life》 by C.K. Chan (’65)

James’ favorite song from YK rang a resonance. Other James’ friends and colleagues have written poems and articles in regard to James. Here comes the “Last Night a Nightingale Woke Me”

https://youtu.be/JD_BM-hrulc

For some reason, this song came up in my mind from the school days in Wah Yan. I could recall the lyrics almost completely. Do you all remember singing this song in music class? I found the lyrics on the Internet -

Last night the nightingale woke me, Last night when all was still; It sang in the golden moonlight >From out the woodland hill. I opened my window so gently, I looked on the morning dew, And oh, the bird, my darling, was singing, Singing sweet songs of you. I think of you in the daytime, I dream of you by night; I wake and wish you were here, dear, And tears are blinding my sight. I hear low whispers in the pine trees, A-floating through and through, And oh the wind, my darling, is sighing, Oh sighing for you, for you. The stream, the night, the woods a-flowing, The stars above the blue, All heaven itself, my darling, is dreaming, Dreaming and praying for you. Just dreaming of you, sweetheart!

Stephen Lee

Another one on “How I not keep thinking of him 教我如何不想他”

刘半农词 趙元任曲

and this one is more correctly sung - in “不想“,the 不should be half the time of 想。

《Toselli for James》 by Francis Choi ('65)

James and I used to sing this song together, he did it in Chinese while I had the English part.  Other songs, especially "One Day When We Were Young", were mostly sung in unison.

《教我如何不想他》 ~ 鄧偉燊('65)

James Tong

 

詩名開始時叫做《情歌》,後來改為《教我如何不想她》,由劉半農在1920於英國倫敦大學留學期間所作新詩,是中國早期廣為流傳的重要詩篇。該詩由於音韻和諧,語言流暢,1926年被著名的語言學家趙元任譜成曲,廣為傳唱。劉半農在這首詩中首創了「她」字的使用,受到廣泛的讚譽。

天上飄著些微雲,地上吹著些微風。
啊!微風吹動了我的頭髮,教我如何不想她?
月光戀愛著海洋,海洋戀愛著月光。
啊!這般蜜也似的銀夜。教我如何不想她?
水面落花慢慢流,水底魚兒慢慢遊。
啊!燕子你說些什麼話?教我如何不想她?
枯樹在冷風裡搖,野火在暮色中燒。
啊!西天還有些兒殘霞,教我如何不想她?

---------劉半農 1920.9.4
