夏韶声 - 空凳

一張丟空了無人坐的凳
jat zoeng diu hung liu mou jan co dik dang
a put aside empty no one sits in chair
仍令我再不禁地行近
jing ling ngo zoi bat gam dei haang gan
still makes me unrestrictedly walk near again
曾在遠遠的以前
cang zoi jyun jyun dik ji cin
once in the distant past
這凳子裡
ze dang zi leoi
in this char
父親仿似巨人
fu can fong ci geoi jan
father as if a giant

輕撫給腰背磨殘了的凳
hing fu kap jiu bui mo caan liu dik dang
light strokes provide waist and back wore down to ruins of chair
無奈凳裡只有遺憾
mou noi dang leoi zi jau wai ham
unfortunately inside chair only have regrets
在遠遠的以前
zoi jyun jyun dik ji cin
in the distant past
凳子很美
dang zi han mei
chair very beautiful
父親很少皺紋
fu can han siu zau man
father very few wrinkles

*獨望著空凳願我能
duk mong zoek hung dang jyun ngo nang
alone looking towards empty chair wish I can
再度和他促膝而坐
zoi dou wo taa cuk sat ji co
once more with him be in close contact and sit
獨望著空凳心難過
duk mong zoek hung dang sam naan gwo
alone looking towards empty chair heart feels sad
為何想講的從前不說清楚*
wai ho soeng gong dik cung cin bat syut cing co
why want to say before not clearly say

**曾懶說半句我愛他**
cang laan syut bun geoi ngo oi taa
once lazy to say half a phrase I love him
***懶說半句我愛他
laan syut bun geoi ngo oi taa
lazy to say half a phrase I love him
過去我說我最是要緊
gwo heoi ngo syut ngo zeoi si jiu gan
previously I say I am the most important
今天發覺最愛他
gam tin faat gok zeoi oi taa
today I discover love him the most
呼叫永遠也愛他
fu giu wing jyun jaa oi taa
shout forever also love him
聽我叫喊只得一張空凳***
ting ngo giu haam zi dak jat zoeng hung dang
listen to me outcry only have an empty chair

*獨望著空凳願我能
再度和他促膝而坐
獨望著空凳心難過
為何想講的從前不說清楚*

**曾懶說半句我愛他**
***懶說半句我愛他
過去我說我最是要緊
今天發覺最愛他
呼叫永遠也愛他
聽我叫喊只得一張空凳***

過去懶說我愛他
gwo heoi laan syut ngo oi taa
previously lazy to say I love him
***懶說半句我愛他
過去我說我最是要緊
今天發覺最愛他
呼叫永遠也愛他
聽我叫喊只得一張空凳***
