The Prayer


I pray you'll be our eyes, and watch us where we go.

And help us to be wise in times when we don't know

Let this be our prayer, when we lose our way

Lead us to the place, guide us with your grace

To a place where we'll be safe


La luce che tu hai

I pray we'll find your light

nel cuore restera

and hold it in our hearts.

a ricordarci che

When stars go out each night,

eterna stella sei


Nella mia preghiera

Let this be our prayer

quanta fede c'e

when shadows fill our day


Lead us to a place, guide us with your grace

Give us faith so we'll be safe


Sognamo un mondo senza piu violenza

un mondo di giustizia e di speranza

Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino

Simbolo di pace, di fraternita


La forza che ci da

We ask that life be kind

e il desiderio che

and watch us from above

ognuno trovi amor

We hope each soul will find

intorno e dentro se

another soul to love


another soul to love

Let this be our prayer

Let this be our prayer, just like every child


Need to find a place, guide us with your grace

Give us faith so we'll be safe

Need to find a place, guide us with your grace

Give us faith so we'll be safe


E la fede che

hai acceso in noi,

sento che ci salvera

It's been long time since i've posted, not very busy, just din't feel like it.
So here's what i've been up to lately.

AnimeS

Got hooked onto Prince Of Tennis. It's not showing on kids TeeVee but the dubbers stinks. I'm watching fansubs, so i know how the charactors sound like in japanese and trust me it's way better.

Starting to watch Ragnarok the Animation. it's something like .hack but the it aint as high tech.

Congratulation to the Newly Weds

Congratulation Dominic and Seraphim. May you have a blissful and ever musical life together. Because there won't be another wedding in my family for a rather long time( i.e most probably until my sister or me). I would like to elaborate on what happened.

22th May 2004

10am. Arrive at the couple's love nest for tea ceremony, everyone was speaking cantonese which mean that i was practically lost in translation. Tyng Tyng( the bride) was astounding, dressed in a long white gown complete with silver earing and tiara. So the ceremony began. the Couple serving tea to their parents, then the fraternal relatives and maternal relatives. It seem really boring until suddenly my sister and I were asked to serve tea to the couple. ( never done that before , at other wedding so it was kinda weird). Dom and Tyng were very nice, they received our tea without sitting down. Most probably not to crumple the gown but it sent to me a different message that they treated us like their cousins and not like elders because they are way older than me.

2pm. The Service began. it's one of the best wedding masses i have attended. there was an orchestra of about 30 people. Violins, flutes, harp, piano, organ, clarinets, celo, double bass etc. I was sitting with the 40-strong choir. The music was soothing and memorable. Accompanied by good voices. it's was like a normal service. Instead of saying their vows, they decided to sing their vows. The couple( musically inclined) decided to play a piece for thanksgiving. Tyng on the Voilin and Dom on the keyboard.

8pm. At the Dinner, we sat at the VIP table. The dinner was something u see everyday either. it's was like a mini concert. There was an irish gig, a deut by the couple, congratulatory pieces dedicated to the couple by friends. All in all they wedding made remember how positive i had felt about life. About it being one filled with happiness, bliss, and experiences that you'll never forget.
