常低頭

I saw this cute video clip on LZB's blog. I thought the song was quite nice and the lyrics meaningful…kind of zen. I reproduce part of the lyrics here and also added the clip. If you’re bored at work today, have some fun viewing this video. Enjoy and remember…mind your head! :p

常低頭

老師叫我常低頭
這樣不會撞到頭
高傲的人會撞到頭
因為他不肯低頭

老師叫我常低頭
這樣不會撞到頭
低頭看清楚自己的腳步
一步一步爬上那座山頭

山上的風景很美麗
美得讓人沖昏了頭
看過了山上的風景
又到了下山的時候

下山的路或許很難走
但是不能一直在山上停留
路邊有美麗的小野花
山上山下都是白雲悠悠

Ok, this translation is for the sake of a very hardworking Dimwit who insists on Apples while I feel Cookies are equally nice too. ^_^

Always Keep Your Head Low

Teacher always tells me to keep my head low
So as not to hit my head
Those whom are arrogant may hit their head
Because they refuse to keep their head low

Teacher always tells me to keep my head low
So as not to hit my head
Keep your head low to vividly see your moves
Step by step as you climb atop the hill

Such a lovely view from the top of the hill
That you get carried away by the view
But once you have seen the beautiful view
It’s time to go downhill

Descending the hill may be a difficult trail
But you can’t remain at the top of the hill
Beautiful wild flowers by the side of the trail
Everlasting clouds at the top and bottom of the hill

hmmm
need to have all our pighead politicians to listen to it-
山上的風景很美麗
美得讓人沖昏了頭

下山的路或許很難走
但是不能一直在山上停留
quite meaningful!

i like chinese characters because they are so meaningful. just look at 悶. it's a heart confined by a set of doors. why let your heart be trapped? open the doors and you can set it free!

ps: we are the gatekeeper of our heart ^^
