  • This Day Next Year

    I recently translated a popular Cantonese song by Eason Chan, 明年今日"This Day Next Year". Sadly I can resonate with some of the lyrics... now in verses!

For a short space of time I remained at the window watching the pallid lightnings that played above Mont Blanc and listening to the rushing of the Arve, which pursued its noise way beneath. The same lulling sounds acted as a lullaby to my too keen sensations; when I placed my head upon my pillow, sleep crept over me; I felt it as it came and blessed the giver of oblivion.
