Journey of Life

Nothing is going the way it should
I hastily subdue these feelings of impatience
All these anxiety and nervousness are sending my heart into disorder
Just a boy hugging his knees in the midst of it all

Shivering and in tears, I repress all my regret
I cried all night, but now it seems that dawn is breaking…

So, undoubtedly you’re right
Even though right now I might try to turn back
And I keep on being stubborn about it, though I know it’s monotonous
I’ll start walking again, this time farther, and I won’t give up

If I could just get one more chance…

I’ll keep it all locked away in my heart
until my dreams come true..

I surrendered myself into a dismal emptiness
in the most critical times
No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t quite reach
Aiming for the shore
I had to swim for my life

Withstanding the current, I can’t even rise my voice
It could have been the end right there, but..

I don’t think that love can save anything,
but there’s something about your smile,
that somehow healed my heart, and in your lips
I found the strength to stand up again

If only I could get one more chance again..

The flow of the river is intense even today,
but I won’t let go of your hand,
I’ll believe in the love that’s in my heart forever,
until my dreams come true..

- Translation from part of Gundam SEED anime Ending Song, RIVER by Tatsuya Ishii

Well, I was rummaging through my song lyrics and LO! what I found.. The translation of my favorite song! When I read the lyrics, I suddenly realized the deepness of this song lyric. We all live the flow of river called LIFE although we swim in our own way. For myself, part of this song described something that’s just happened to me.. It’s touched my heart and I’ve just found my strength again to carry on.. So, I decided to write this lyric for everyone who read my blog, of course ^^.. Hope you’ll find the strength to do anything that you’ve tried to give up or depressed at, although the flow of the RIVER is intense.. ^^ And don’t forget, God is always be with you!!
