笑‧傲江湖

黃霑的死, 我是真感到可惜! 很多很多喜歡的音樂和歌詞, 都是他的作品。風流而不下流的才子 --- 做人, 也難免會有多少遺憾吧!

滄海一聲笑~ 很久前很喜歡的歌。
媽說這是小時候第一首我自己譜出來的歌 - 當然就沒有很好的音樂效果了!

"浮沉隨浪只記今朝"; 曾經很嚮往這樣的酒脫, 以為不難吧 -- 難! 原來是很難~

"誰負誰勝出天知曉 "; 曾經很執著勝負, 天知曉吧; 但的這麼容易兩袖清風嗎?

最後的, 還是 : "豪情仍在癡癡笑笑"!

哈! 笑‧傲江湖








滄海一聲笑

滄海一聲笑 滔滔兩岸潮 濤浪濤盡紅塵俗事知多少
清風笑 竟惹寂寥 浮沉隨浪只記今朝
滄天笑 紛紛世上潮 誰負誰勝出天知曉

江山笑 煙雨遙 濤浪濤盡紅塵俗世幾多嬌
清風笑 竟惹寂寥 
豪情還賸了 一襟晚照

蒼生笑 不再寂寥
豪情仍在癡癡笑笑

Song Again: Rhythm of Life

又是同一個 Music Camp。有一晚 Practise 到午夜十二點, 準備離開時見琴上有份譜, 下意識便走去彈; 彈彈下, 就有成班人圍埋來唱...

一直唱, 唱的唱得 High, 我也彈得開心; 一直也很喜歡彈琴時有人唱。

Rhythm of Life~~ 節奏活潑的生命








Rhythm Of Life!

Daddy started out in San Francisco,
Tootin' on his trumpet loud and mean,
Suddenly a voice said, "Go forth Daddy,
Spread the picture on a wider screen."
And the voice said, "Brother, there's a million pigeons
Ready to be hooked on new religions.
Hit the road, Daddy, leave your common-law wife.
Spread the religion of The Rhythm Of Life."
And The Rhythm Of Life is a powerful beat,
Puts a tingle in your fingers and a tingle in your feet,
Rhythm in your bedroom,
Rhythm in the street,
Yes, The Rhythm Of Life is a powerful beat,
To feel The Rhythm Of Life,
To feel the powerful beat,
To feel the tingle in your fingers,
To feel the tingle in your feet,
Daddy, spread the gospel in Milwaukee,
Took his walkie talkie to Rocky Ridge,
Blew his way to Canton, then to Scranton,
Till he landed under the Manhattan Bridge.
Daddy was the new sensation, got himself a congregation,
Built up quite an operation down below.
With the pie-eyed piper blowing, while the muscatel was flowing,
All the cats were go, go, go-ing down below.
Daddy was the new sensation, got himself a congregation,
Built up quite an operation down below.
With the pie-eyed piper blowing, while the muscatel was flowing,
All the cats were go, go, go-ing down below.
Flip your wings and fly to Daddy,
Flip your wings and fly to Daddy,
Flip your wings and fly to Daddy,
Fly, fly, fly to Daddy,
Take a dive and swim to Daddy,
Take a dive and swim to Daddy,
Take a dive and swim to Daddy,
Swim, swim, swim to Daddy
Hit the floor and crawl to Daddy,
Hit the floor and crawl to Daddy,
Hit the floor and crawl to Daddy,
Crawl, crawl, crawl to Daddy,
And The Rhythm Of Life is a powerful beat,
Puts a tingle in your fingers and a tingle in your feet,
Rhythm in your bedroom,
Rhythm in the street,
Yes, The Rhythm Of Life is a powerful beat,
To feel The Rhythm Of Life,
To feel the powerful beat,
To feel the tingle in your fingers,
To feel the tingle in your feet,
To feel The Rhythm Of Life,
To feel the powerful beat,
To feel the tingle in your fingers,
To feel the tingle in your feet,
Flip your wings and fly to Daddy,
Take a dive and swim to Daddy,
Hit the floor and crawl to Daddy,
Daddy we got The Rhythm Of Life,
Of life, of life, of life.
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Man~~~!

Flying Free

A beautiful hymn. I like it a lot, and sent to several friends.

Remember the summer 2 years ago in IED (HK Institute of Education), we sang it in a 3-day music camp.








Flying Free



There is a place I call my own
Where I can stand by the sea,
And look beyond the things I've known ,
And dream that I might be free.
Like the bird above the trees
Gliding gently on the breeze,
I wish that all my life I'd be
Without a care and flying free!

But life is not a distant sky
Without a cloud, without rain.
And I can never hope that I
Can travel on without pain

Time goes swiftly on its way,
All too soon we've lost today.
I cannot wait for skies of blue
Or dream so long that life is through.

So life's a song that I must sing,
A gift of love I must share .
And when I see the joy it brings,
My spirits soar through the air.
Like that bird up in the sky ,
Life has taught me how to fly.
For now I know what I can be
And now my heart is flying free!

~~~霑叔~~~



一代樂壇鬼才 黃霑 因肺癌病逝, 而我竟矇然不知; 最後, 竟然是身在美國的 蝶 告訴我才知道......

鬼才一詞, 黃霑 實當之無愧。他遊戲人生, 途中郤不太順利。是生命的磨難致成他的遊戲, 還是他的遊戲為他造就磨難?

「笑看風雲樂逍遙, 橫瞪暴浪仰天嘯。」 他的作品中, 有的是豪氣干雲, 笑傲江湖;「鐵漢唯洒胭脂淚」, 也有的是情話綿綿、寸寸柔腸。 是起伏跌宕造就了這一代鬼才。

從來不太認同他的生活風格。但他的才華, 是無容置疑的!

Concert

前天, 承 的 Chung Chi Orchestra 有 Concert; 他是 Orchestra 其中一個 Celloist。
本來約了 如玉 吃飯, 算是聚一聚, 去 "Chi" 餐; 吃過飯便去 LeeHysan Concert Hall.

其中一首曲目是大家都耳熟能詳的 Pachelbell Canon. 但不是 String Quartet; orchestration 新的嘗試, 用 Percussion - 兩個 Marimba, 一個 Xylophone.

Marimba 據說是源自非洲的敲擊樂器, 外型像 Xylophone. 正式的 Marimba 用 RoseWood 制成, 低音部聲音沉厚; 場中另一個是 Junior Marimba, 用一種 非洲土語 叫 "Paduuk" 的木材制成, 聲音較高而清脆; Xylophone 便是很普通的樂器了, 可能聽慣了的原因, 聲音像是有點平, 但郤是最利落的。

Pachelbell Canon (Official Live Recording in the Concert)







Marimba, Junior Marimba, Xylophone 合奏的 Pachelbell Canon, 聽起來挺有趣呢? 但 旋律的勾勒, 相互的起伏變化, 便沒有 String 那樣容易突出了。


Chung Chi Orchestra 因為團員都是學生, 流動性十分高, 每年的編制也很不同; 像今年是 Brass 大盛的一年。新編排 Haydn 的 Water Music Excerpt, 連 Bass Clarinet 也有, Saxophone 也有兩支呢 ^^ 哈~ Bassoon 竟然有兩三支之多!

Let It Be !








Let It Be!
When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

And when the broken hearted people
Living in the world agree,
There will be an answer, let it be.
For though they may be parted there is
Still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be. yeah
There will be an answer, let it be.

And when the night is cloudy,
There is still a light that shines on me,
Shine on until tomorrow, let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be,
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

Yesterday's Sermon

承擔與成長 - 何傑博士


posted by Campion @ 9:43:00 PM  


Puff the Magic Dragon

Peter, Paul and Mary 的古典民歌. 不錯哦, 一片清新的感覺。 (Title is an audio link~)



Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee.
Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff
And brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff, oh

Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee.
Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee.

Together they would travel on boat with billowed sail
Jackie kept a lookout perched on Puff's gigantic tail
Noble kings and princes would bow whene'er they came
Pirate ships would lower their flags when Puff roared out his name, oh

CHORUS

A dragon lives forever, but not so little boys
Painted wings and giants's rings make way for other toys.
One grey night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more
And Puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar.

His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain
Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane.
Without his lifelong friend, Puff could not be brave
So, Puff that mighty dragon sadly slipped into his cave, oh

飛蛾



飛蛾像蝴蝶, 都是卵生。牠們破蛹而出, 需要經過很大的努力, 把身體和翅膀都擠成一小團, 吃力地從蛹口前的小管迫出來。像一個大胖子, 逼在狹窄的水渠中, 千辛萬苦才可以擠出來, 重出生天。一旦擠了出來, 蛾兒便能伸展翅膀, 到處飛翔。

看 過一篇小品。作者剛好看見桌前蛾蟲兒要破蛹了, 便放下手上的工作, 仔細地看。過了好一會, 作者真是於心不忍; 他想飛蛾是太辛苦了, 便要幫牠一把 - 小心的把蛹割開小許, 蛾兒便輕易地出來了。作者心滿意足地看著新生的飛蛾, 正等牠展翅飛翔。但蛾兒飛了一會, 便又跌在桌上 - 翅膀像是萎縮了。

原來, 那只飛蛾沒有經過勉力擠出來的艱辛, 翅膀沒有發展出堅強的筋胳, 飛了一會兒便不能支持下去。不能飛的飛蛾, 失去覓食和逃走的能力, 不一會便要死了。


人也是一樣, 很多時也要有擠出瓶頸的經歷, 才能成長, 才能強壯起來。有時我們很慈心的, 急著要救別人離開難過的時候; 又或自己沒有耐心走過難過的路, 埋怨之餘, 便找來一條快捷的捷徑。

小品的作者說, 神在每一個人身上的旨意各盡不同; 若我們擅作主張要為人或自己改道, 又會否像飛蛾一樣呢?

承擔與交托

聽了一個故事......

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
有一個男人, 住在郊外的地方。一天晚上, 在睡夢中, 他隠約感到主耶穌站在他的床邊。

矇矓中, 他問主: 「主啊! 我可以為你做甚麼嗎?」 主說:「我想你為我做一件事。」「主啊! 請說吧!」主說:「我交付這事給你。直到我告訴你以前, 你不可停作這工。你會答應嗎?」男人說:「我會!」「你門前不遠處有一條小溪, 你去推溪旁的那塊大石。」

第 二天早晨, 那人起來, 走到每天也經過的溪旁, 站在大石的前面 - 大石還要比他高一頭。他便開始推那大石。先是面對面的推, 出盡吃奶的力, 推了一日, 大石絲毫不動; 第二天, 他試著以背頂石, 雙腿出力的蹬, 大石也是不動; 有時他會挺起手臂, 輪流用兩邊的肩膀推, 但大石總是不動。

推了好一段時日, 他累了。「我只答應了主不停止推石, 但沒有答應全力地推嘛!」他想著, 便用手輕輕抵著石頭, 裝模作樣的又推了一會; 然而不少的時候, 他也挺盡力地推。

又推了一些時日, 他便懷疑起來 - 「會否是我聽錯了? 會否只是普通的一個夢呢?」......但他很清楚那是主。撒旦對他說, 「你有無傻仔d啊, Sai 哂自己的時間; 以你gei力量, 推十世都推唔郁啦! 耶穌點會咁無聊, 一定係你聽錯!」

推了很久, 經過很多的掙扎, 他實在是累了。但他記著, 他答應了主, 在祂來以前, 不能停手; 他便繼續推下去。

有一晚, 主耶穌又在他夢中出現。他急不及待問主:「你要我推的大石, 我怎麼也推不動; 你來是要叫我停手嗎?」

主沒有回答, 郤把他帶到大石旁邊。主的手輕輕一推, 大石便滾下去了。那人看得呆了:「既然主推得那麼輕易, 為甚麼還要我推? 累得我半死也推不動!」

「我確是要你去推這大石,」
主柔聲說:「但我沒有要你推動它。」「推, 是你的任務; 推動它, 郤是我的責任。」「你看你的肩膀, 不是比從前堅實麼? 你的胳臂不是比從前強壯麼? 你的腿不是比從前粗壯麼?」

主說:「因為你的忠心和堅持, 你的心也比從前強壯。現在, 來為我作更大的事。」
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

作為基督徒, 我們的責任, 很多時也只是去推; 推得動與否, 未必是我們的任務。

很多時我們也尋找意義。我們想, 現在做的時, 要為一個更大的目標。然而, 除此之外, 我們正在做的, 本身也是意義了。

風物長宜放眼量


耳不聰, 眼不明; 身在霧裡, 便是看不清方向。生活是一團霧, 而人要有遠離霧的時候。站遠一點, 或許能看清楚一點 - 看看自己在霧裡做的是甚麼, 與之苦苦掙扎的又是甚麼。

「牢騷太盛防斷腸, 風物長宜放眼量。」
