償い (つぐない, Japanese oldie)



作曲：三木隆    
作詞：荒木とよひさ  
編曲：川口真  
Sung:  Xena LCH#130

窓に西陽    が　あたる部屋は
いつもあなたの　匂  いがするわ
ひとり暮らせば　想い出すから
壁の傷も残したまま　おいてゆくわ

愛をつぐなえば　別れになるけど
こんな女でも　忘れないでね

やさしすぎたのあなた
子供みたいなあなた
あすは他人同志に　なるけれど

心のこりは　あなたのこと
少し煙草も　ひかえめにして
過去にしばられ　暮らすことより

わたしよりも可愛い人　探すことよ
愛をつぐなえば　重荷になるから
この町を離れ　暮らしてみるわ
お酒のむのもひとり
夢を見るのもひとり
あすは他人同志に　なるけれど

愛をつぐなえば　別れになるけど
こんな女でも　忘れないでね
やさしすぎたのあなた
子供みたいなあなた
あすは他人同志に　なるけれど

清平調



A poem by  the great Poet 李白 Li Bai (Tang Dynasty,  705-762  A.D.) 清平調
Genre: Beauty&Hero (in this  poem/song,  the Romeo was a Tang  Emperor   Li  long-ji ,  and Juliet was his favorite quasi-Queen, Yang Yu-hwan)
Sung: Xena LCH #131

雲想衣裳花想容，春風拂檻露華濃 。
若非群玉山頭見，會向瑤臺月下逢。

一枝紅艷露凝香，雲雨巫山枉斷腸。
借問漢宮誰得似？可憐飛燕倚新粧。

名花傾國兩相歡，常得君王帶笑看。
解釋春風無限恨，沈香亭北倚闌干。

玫瑰玫瑰我愛你 (I love roses)

Lyricist：吳村
Composer：陳歌辛
Sung : Xena LCH #127

玫瑰玫瑰最嬌美　玫瑰玫瑰最艷麗
春夏開在枝頭上　玫瑰玫瑰我愛你
玫瑰玫瑰情意重　玫瑰玫瑰情意濃
春夏開在荊棘裏　玫瑰玫瑰我愛你

心的誓約　心的情意　聖潔的光輝照大地
心的誓約　心的情意　聖潔的光輝照大地

玫瑰玫瑰枝兒細　玫瑰玫瑰刺兇銳
傷了嫩枝和嬌蕊　玫瑰玫瑰我愛你
玫瑰玫瑰心兒堅　玫瑰玫瑰刺兒尖
毀不少並蒂枝連理　玫瑰玫瑰我愛你

往事只能回味

Composer：劉家昌
Lyricist：林煌坤
Sung : Xena LCH #128

時光一逝永不回　往事只能回味
憶童年時竹馬青梅　兩小無猜日夜相隨
春風又吹紅了花蕊　你已經也添了新歲
你這樣變心像時光難倒回
我只有在夢裡想依偎

十八姑娘一朵花 (Folk Song:The 18-year old lass looks like the Disney Princess)
Sung: Xena LCH #129

十八的姑娘一朵花　一朵花
眉毛彎彎眼睛大　眼睛大
紅紅的嘴唇雪白牙　雪白牙
粉粉的笑臉　粉粉笑臉賽晚霞

啊姑娘十八一朵花　一朵花
十八的姑娘一朵花　一朵花
每個男人都想她　都想她
沒錢的小伙兒她不愛　她不愛
有錢的老頭兒　有錢老頭兒她不想

啊姑娘十八一朵花　一朵花
十八的姑娘一朵花　一朵花

美麗青春好年華　好年華
姑娘長大不可留　不可留
留來留去　留來留去成冤家

啊姑娘十八一朵花　一朵花純

在那銀色月光下 (Under the Silvery Moonlight - a Regional Folk Song)




在那銀色月光下
Regional Folk Song 許樂
Sung by Xena LCH #125

在那金色沙灘上
灑著銀白的月光
尋找往事蹤影
往事蹤影迷茫
尋找往事蹤影
往事蹤影迷茫

往事蹤影迷茫
猶如幻夢一樣
你在何處躲藏
背棄我的姑娘
你在何處躲藏
背棄我的姑娘

往事蹤影迷茫
猶如幻夢一樣
你在何處躲藏
背棄我的姑娘
你在何處躲藏
背棄我的姑娘

秋柳 Autumn Willows
Lyricist: Master 李叔同 (Monk, Poet) about the transitory life of willows

Sung: Xena LCH #121

堤邊柳到秋天葉亂飄
葉落盡只剩得細枝條

想當日綠茵茵春光好
今日裡冷清清秋色老

風淒淒雨淒淒君不見眼前景已全非
眼前景已全非一思量一回首不勝悲

Sung by : Xena LCH #122

滴不盡相思血淚拋紅豆
開不完春柳春花滿畫樓
睡不穩紗窗風雨黃昏後
忘不了新愁與舊愁

嚥不下玉粒金純噎滿喉
照不見菱花鏡裡形容瘦
展不開的眉頭　捱不明的更漏
恰便是遮不住的青山隱隱
流不斷的綠水悠悠

Yesterday-one-more in Waiting



Published on Mar 11, 2015
Composer：王福齡
Lyricist：陶秦
Sung by: Xena LCH #123

不知道是早晨
不知道是黃昏
看不到天上的雲
見不到街邊的燈
黑淒淒 陰沉沉
你讓我在這裡癡癡的等

想的是你的愛
想的是你的恨
流不盡相思的淚
熬不完離別的恨
夢悠悠 昏沉沉
你讓我在這裡癡癡的等

也曾聽到走近的足聲
撩起我多少興奮
也曾低呼你的名字
盼著你向我飛奔
看清楚掠過的影子
才知道是一個陌生的人

會不會你再來
要不要我再等
一遍遍我自己想
一聲聲我自己問
恨也深 愛也深
我還是在這裡癡癡的等
