Nocturnal "夜曲"
Nocturnal "夜曲"
My gosh.. i`ve turned nocturnal!! =s i sleep well in the day time...and i can`t even stay still while lying on bed at night...my gosh!!! arghghghgh...i need help!! =s
"为你弹奏萧邦的夜曲
纪念我死去的爱情"
not that emo la gua...haha xD
heard a song recently....quite interesting.. very nice tune.. it`s called 'Waltzing Matilda'...the original composer of the song is A.B. Paterson.. but i heard this song by Tommy Emmanuel in one of his concerts..he actually sang it also! :D haha.. lyrics have some REALLY weird words..words such as Billabong, Coolabah Tree, Jumbuck, Swagman..huh!??! O.o
haha..Australian slang apparently...
Waltzing Matilda
Once a jolly swagman camped by a Billabong
Under the shade of a Coolabah tree
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled
"Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me?"
Down come a jumbuck to drink at the water hole
Up jumped a swagman and grabbed him in glee
And he sang as he stowed him away in his tucker bag
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me'".
Up rode the Squatter a riding his thoroughbred
Up rode the Trooper - one, two, three
"Where's that jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag?",
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me".
But the swagman he up and jumped in the water hole
Drowning himself by the Coolabah tree,
And his ghost may be heard as it sings in the Billabong,
"Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me?"
