    Riêng Một Góc Trời

    Ngô Thụy Miên

    Tình yêu như nắng, nắng đưa em về, bên giòng suối mơ

    Nhẹ vương theo gió, gió mang câu thề,

    xa dời chốn xưa Tình như lá úa, rơi buồn, trong nỗi nhớ

    Mưa vẫn mưa rơi, mây vẫn mây trôi, hắt hiu t́nh tôi

    Người vui bên ấy, xót xa nơi này, thương h́nh dáng ai

    Ṿng tay tiếc nuối, bước chân âm thầm, nghe giọt nắng phai

    Đời như sương khói, mơ hồ, trong bóng tối

    Em đă xa xôi, tôi vẫn chơi vơi, riêng một góc trời

     

    Người yêu dấu, người yêu dấu hỡi

    Khi mùa xuân vội qua chốn nơi đây

    Nụ hôn đă mơ say, bờ môi ướt mi cay, nay c̣n đâu

    T́m đâu thấy, t́m đâu thấy nữa

    Khi mùa đông về theo cánh chim bay

    Là chia cách đôi nơi, là hạnh phúc ră rời, người ơi

     

    Một mai em nhé, có nghe Thu về, trên hàng lá khô

    Ngàn sao lấp lánh, hát câu mong chờ, em về lối xưa

    Hạ c̣n nắng ấm, thấy ḷng sao buốt giá

    Gọi tên em măi, trong cơn mê này, ḿnh nhớ thương nhau

     

    My World Corner

    literally translated by anonymouswish


    Love is sunlight that brings you to a fantasical stream
    Lightly lingers in the wind brings a promise away from a place in the past.
    Love is like dead leaves that sadly fall in reminiscence
    Rain still falls, cloud still wanders, my love flickers

    You are happy there, here is heart broken, miss your appearance
    Embrace of sorrow, lonely footsteps, feel drops of sunlight waning
    Life is like fog and smoke, obscured in darkness
    You were far away, I still flounder in my world corner
    My sweet heart, oh, my sweet heart
    When the spring hurrily left this place
    The kiss was ecstatic, lips wet with tears…nothing remained
    Can’t find, can’t find anymore
    When winter returns the birds will fly away
    It means separation, happiness shatters, my dear

    Someday sweetie, would you hear autumn return on dried leaves
    Stars were sparking as if they sung the song  waiting for your return to the old street
    Summer still has warm sunlight, why my soul is icy cold
    Calling your name forever in this reverie…we still miss each other

     

     

    A Corner of My World (translated by anonymouswish)

    Love is sunlight.  It brings you to a dreamy stream
    Lingers with wind, brings a promise, leaves the old place.
    Love is dry leaves, sadly fall, in memory
    Rain is dreary, cloud is floating, sorrowful love

    You’re happy there, forlornly here, miss your image
    Arms ’round regrets, lonely footsteps, sunlight fades
    Life is misty, vaguely, in darkness
    You’re leaving me, I drift into my lonely world

     My dearest, oh my dearest

    When the spring hurriedly left this place
    A kiss was a wish, lips were soaked with tears, nothing left
    Nothing found, everything was gone
    When winter returns with lonesome doves
    Separated two worlds, happiness shattered, my love.

    This version can be sung.
