I want the whole world to know how much I love you, baby. I translate this song from Vietnamese. The song is too truth for me. Do you understand my feeling?


Ngày Nhớ Đêm Mong Miss you Day and Night
A
Đã bao ngày qua, nhớ hơi ấm đôi bàn tay So many days, miss the warmth of your hands
Nhớ nụ cười và đôi mắt dễ thương Miss the lovely smile and eyes
Xuân tàn hạ sang, cách nhau đã bao mùa trăng Spring ends summer comes, we separated so many moons
Anh nhớ em đêm ngày ngóng trông I miss you day and night waiting
B
Cớ sao trời xanh, lứa đôi phải chia lìa nhau Blue sky why lovers have to be separated?
Để hoa tàn bầy chim cũng héo hon Let flowers die the birds so sad
Mưa buồn nhẹ rơi, nói thay lời anh nhớ em Sad rain lightly falls, helps me tell you I miss you
Mong ngày em trở về gần bên anh Waiting the day you come back here
C
Viết lên trên trời cao những lời yêu em Write on the high sky the words of my love
Viết lên những bài ca dành tặng riêng cho em Write the songs to only give just to you
Bao ngày xa cách nhau, trời đêm như thiếu trăng So many days separated, the night sky lost the moon
Bao ngày mong nhớ em làm con tim anh khô héo So many days waiting and missing you make my heart dries
D
Những đêm anh ngủ say mơ được gặp em Nights I sleep I dream could meet you
Rót cho nhau lời yêu thương và vòng tay ấm Fill the words of love and the warm holding arms
Em nào đâu biết chăng ở nơi rất xa You don't know that in a place far away
Khung trời đây có anh ngày đêm mong nhớ em nhiều The sky frame here has me day and night miss you so much.

Repeat A + B + C + D

Repeat C (group)

Repeat D + B (main singer)

Last: Đêm ngày anh thầm mong nhớ em nhiều (Night and day I silently miss you so much)

Translated as: Miss you Day and Night

So many days, miss your warmth of your hands
Miss your smile and lovely eyes
Spring ends summer comes, we separated so many moons
I miss you day and night waiting

Blue sky, why lovers have to separate?
Make the flowers die the birds also sad
Sad rain lightly falls, helps me tell you I miss you
Waiting the day you come back next to me

Write on the high sky the words of my love to you
Write the songs to only give just to you
So many days separated, the night sky seems no moon
So many days waiting and missing you make my heart dries

The nights I sleep I dream about you
Fill the words of love and the warm holding arms
You don't know that in a place far away
The sky frame here has me day and night miss you so much.

I have so true sense of love since my girlfriend is right next to me. It originally was joke I made to her, but really when I think about it, it's so true, so I want to tell you, too.

The guy who made the song really is tricky. If the song title is really "The moon represents my heart" in English then I can see through what he really thinks about love.

Traditional 'Love = Moon'

Chinese girls may think that the love as the Moon is wonderful. They think it's forever love, always love, strongest love, most beautiful love.

The guys thinks that using the Moon can make the girls happy. They "exploited" the Moon in poems and essays. They mainly did that to flirt with the girls, which they got crushed on. And if the girls fell for that, they got a wife... or a few.

Vietnamese has the same culture too. And I think in many Asian countries, they have this same attitude. Love is as beautiful as the Moon. How about Western culture? I really don't know, so if you are one of those, please kindly comment.

My 'Love = Moon' Logic

What about me. I don't think so. My thought is totally apposite. I have a twisted mind? Really? Then read my thoughts.

I agree witht the author, and I think only I have this feeling. Love is like the Moon in this way... it's unstable. One day you strongly love, the other day you don't. Just like the Moon. There are few characteristics of the moon:

  1. Only display at night time. If it display at daytime, you hardly see it. Same as Love?
  2. There is full Moon, and there is no Moon. When the Moon reach it's peak, it's round and so beautiful. But at the end of the cycle, it disappear. Same as Love?
  3. There is bright night, there is cloudy night. When the sky is clear, the Moon shine. When the sky is cloudy, the Moon is so hard to see. Same as Love?

I hope these 3 points are enough to display my thoughts on comparing Love to the Moon. If not, then feel free to use the comment form to throw some feedback at me.

To the Girls

After reading my thoughts, do you still like it when the guy compare his Love with the Moon?

I will let you decide, so please kindly use the comment form.

To the Guys

After reading my twisted thoughts, do you still exploit the Moon to respresent your Love?

I will let you decide, so please kindly use the comment form.

The lyrics translated

月亮代表我的心
The Moon is My Witness
邓丽君
Teresa Teng

你问我爱你有多深
我爱你有几分
我的情也真
我的爱也真
月亮代表我的心
You want to know how much I care
How much I’m loving you
All my care is true
All my love is true
And my witness is the moon

你问我爱你有多深
我爱你有几分
我的情不移
我的爱不变
月亮代表我的心
You want to know how much I care
How much I’m loving you
All my care’s unchanged
All my love stays true
And my witness is the moon

轻轻的一个吻
已经打动我的心
深深的一段情
叫我思念到如今
A gentle kiss on me
And my heart’s melted for you
So deeply we’re in love
I can’t cease to hunger for you

你问我爱你有多深
我爱你有几分
你去想一想
你去看一看
月亮代表我的心
You want to know how much I care
How much I’m loving you
Give it just a thought
And another look
See my witness is the moon

The meaning in English

The Moon Represents my Heart
How deep I loved you,
How strong emotion within myself

You are wondering
My feeling is true
My love is never new
The moon represents my heart

How deep I loved you,
How strong emotion within myself
You want to know

My passion for you is real
My devotion to you is a belief
The moon represents my heart

A tender kiss
Moved me to the heaven
A love story between you and me
It's alive 'til today

Would you think so
Would you trust me

The Moon Represents my Heart
Author: Teresa Teng

Another English translation

You ask me how deep my love for you is,
How much I really love you...
My affection is real.
My love is real.
The moon represents my heart.

You ask me how deep my love for you is,
How much I really love you...
My affection does not waver,
My love will not change.
The moon represents my heart.

* Just one soft kiss
is enough to move my heart.
A period of time when our affection was deep,
Has made me miss you until now.

* You ask me how deep my love for you is,
How much I really love you.

* ** Go think about it.
Go and have a look [at the moon],
The moon represents my heart.

Repeat *

Repeat **

My thoughts

It's funny I love the song even when I didn't know the meaning. Now I know the meaning already, then whenever I sing it I really feel it.

If you like the song and you can read Chinese then see the Chinese version:月亮代表我的心.

Update 27/05/2009: Love is so truth. The song is so truth. And it's now become my real feeling. My real love is here.
