Chaucer Translation: Welcome Summer

Welcome, Summer
by Geoffrey Chaucer
loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch

Now welcome, Summer, with your sun so soft,
since you’ve banished Winter with her icy weather
and driven away her long nights’ frosts.
Saint Valentine, in the heavens aloft,
the songbirds sing your praises together!

Now welcome, Summer, with your sun so soft,
since you’ve banished Winter with her icy weather.

We have good cause to rejoice, not to scoff,
since love’s in the air, and also in the heather,
whenever we find such blissful warmth, together.

Now welcome, Summer, with your sun so soft,
since you’ve banished Winter with her icy weather
and driven away her long nights’ frosts.



Whoso List to Hunt
by Sir Thomas Wyatt
loose translation/interpretation/modernization by Michael R. Burch

Whoever longs to hunt, I know the deer;
but as for me, alas!, I may no more.
This vain pursuit has left me so bone-sore
I'm one of those who falters, at the rear.
Yet friend, how can I draw my anguished mind
away from the doe? Thus, as she flees before
me, fainting I follow. I must leave off, therefore,
since in a net I seek to hold the wind.
Whoever seeks her out, I relieve of any doubt,
that he, like me, must spend his time in vain.
For graven with diamonds, set in letters plain,
these words appear, her fair neck ringed about:
"Touch me not, for Caesar's I am,
And wild to hold, though I seem tame."



Brut
by Layamon, circa 1100 AD, an excerpt
loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch

Now he stands on a hill overlooking the Avon,
seeing steel fishes girded with swords in the stream,
their swimming days done,
their scales a-gleam like gold-plated shields,
their fish-spines floating like shattered spears.



If you see a busker singing for tips, you're seeing someone carrying on an Anglo-Saxon tradition that goes back to the days of Beowulf …

He sits with his harp at his thane's feet,
Earning his hire, his rewards of rings,
Sweeping the strings with his skillful nail;
Hall-thanes smile at the sweet song he sings.
—"Fortunes of Men" loose translation by Michael R. Burch

What You Gonna Do

Why are you sitting by the phone
Looking out the window
Waiting for him to come home

Woman, why are you crying
Looking in his eyes 
When you know he's lying

Said he  was out all night with a friend
Said that he loved you 
and he won't do it again

You lay  down by his side
Fooling yourself saying he's got nothing to hide

He makes love to you with passion in his eyes
You can look in them and tell he's living a lie

He puts all his loving inside of  you
He closes his eyes, like he always do

Cause that way you won't  see the truth
That he's loving another instead of you

She's  living in his head
He's making love to you
but thinking about her in your bed

Trying not to scream out her name
And you can feel it, it's a damn shame

He explodes inside of you
Don't look your way
rolls on his side like he always do

And your left feeling empty
and lonely inside

But you don't speak a word
You don't repeat what your eyes  have heard

You start to cry
Because the truth is in his eyes

Woman what you gonna to do
When the truth is standing right in front of you

You can be a good wife
and live forever in his lies

Cook his dinner and raise his kids
Ignore that other woman like you always did

Calling your phone in the middle of the night
What's done in the dark will soon come to light

But my question to you
Woman, what you gonna do

You can be a good wife
and live forever in his lies

Let the years pass you by
With her by his side

Woman, what you gonna do
When all the memories catch up with you

And their living in your head
And you start to remember, all the things that he said

And they start to haunt you
As so many ghosts do

Woman, what you gonna do
With all these memories, inside of you

Will you be a good wife
and live forever in his lies

What you gonna do
When the truth is standing right in front of you

When she's having his baby
And he's standing in front of you 
telling you she's his lady

And all the years you gave to him they are gone
And just like ten years ago
Your standing by that window all alone

I ask only one question of you
Woman
What you gonna do?

A Wonderful World

A WONDERFUL WORLD
One of my favorite songs whenever it's sung, 
"What a Wonderful World" is right on my tongue.
The melody's fine and the lyrics are great
but other thoughts sometime get to me 
and make my heart ache.

Louie Armstrong sings it best.
He's way ahead of all the rest.
But is the world really such a wonder?
It makes you stop and then 
ponder.

They quickly say the world is warming 
but we can't say it was without warning.
Climate change affects the weather
And that doesn't make things better.

For the trees of green and red roses too
may not bloom as Louie sings it to you.
We'll have droughts and floods
and skies not so blue.

The clouds of white are not so bright 
as storms brew over the lands. 
And the shaking of hands
seem to be more of fright
as the winds stir up the desert sands.

We have "Arab Springs" and children are shot
and babies will cry, "please forget me not."
As the world seems to ache
from these things we forsake 
for the love that we seem to have forgot. 

The world is quite full of 6.5 billion
and the people starving are 
more than 6 million.  
Can that make it a wonderful world?

The friends who shake hands and say,
"How do you do?"  
are they really saying, "I love you?"
The song says so but we really don't know
if they truly mean it or it's just for show.

But when we consider all things 
about how the world really sings
and always ends up with a smile,
we know somehow the world will get by  
as  long  as we give it a real try.

The world has been here for such a long time
and somehow has survived no matter what sign 
through storms, earthquakes and more.
People live on regardless of any war
or disease that is other than benign.

Because no matter what dread 
it can really be said
it is still a wonderful world.
And Louie is right as he sings with delight 
of rainbows and bright stars in the night.

The message of the song is very profound 
and with a little patience the world will rebound.
So even if it seems so imperiled,
indeed, it is still a wonderful world.

Premium Member Ninety Nine Shades of Blue Red Flames

Gliding hands dancing on your spine
Playing melodies in your hair
Soft kisses delights in making discoveries
I see your soul clearly

I seize your face gently reflections shine 
within the mind softly brushing 
deeply plays a tender loving tune 
fluttering beats touching shades of sunshine

All I need is my other senses to feel you
Sensitive sensations tantalizing inside
Blood pumping passion mysteries unraveling

rose of this soul softly whispers a jewel
in this deep nile let the stars be my guide 
sparkling brightly winking delight

Ripples in turquoise waters running deep
Transformation in the subaqueous light filtering through
Indulge in a colorful spectrum of joyous release

granting loves magic in a shower of confetti 
sparking magic granting wishes rising from the dust
lips the rose petals touching kisses softly 
warm enchanting dreams in your inner beauty

Come lay here by me
Gliding hands dancing on your chest
Playing melodies on your lips
Soft kisses delights in whispering echoes

true the wonders of this world 
whispering winds blowing sweetly calling your name 
ocean waves rising unfolds kisses paradise

You are a clear vision
All I need is heart and soul to understand you
Instinctive intensity penetrating inside
Firecrackers soaring passion tales unfolding

melting in the embers of your beauty 
sparks fly behind the mirror gems 
opening in the chambers a ball begins shimmering 
lighting up walls warmly in the four chambers
igniting sparks burning red flames join
silver dancing blue hotly holding beautiful
hands joined under magic spells loving like you do

Shimmers in moon rising and sun setting
Circulation in the bloodstream honey lemon love
Lingers in the aftertaste 
smoldering embers of blue red flames


Co written by Liam Mc Daid and Angeline lim 
based on the song love me like you do

Premium Member Redeemed


Rest in the moments poured out with the rain,
silent stories, meant to reveal God’s truth…

Every ache, each sorrow, throughout the worst pain,
there is a gentle knowing that love is the way…

Rest in the news that God has come to save us from sin,
know He’ll never forsake those He forgives…

Every dark moment, despite the shadows, He will win,
because He is love and that gives peace within…

Rest in the light that flows down from His home above,
see what it means to believe in a Savior’s mercy…

Every tear is wiped away by the assurance of His love,
never stop believing in the One who arose…

Rest in the promise of a heart who is always here,
willing to forgive all the worst of your past…

Every story of hope grows dim compared to what is clear,
this love is alive and flows from inside those who believe…

Rest in the wonder of a Savior who can heal the worst,
with His gift, His healing, He is eternally fulfilling…

Every heart is blessed by this Hope who quenched our thirst,
this is the song – love that once wept is holy, accepting…

Rest in the knowing that God must love us more,
He breathed life into our souls, grace that will always assure…

Every heart who believes – the hearts who truly adore
this Savior – who gave us His Holy blood…

to wash away our sins, wash away all the dark within,
to restore us to the God who has been…
faithful despite all the shame we have known,
trustworthy despite all the blame that’s our own,
reliable despite all the fears who’ve been so cold…

God is the One who told us to come…
	to the foot of the cross, where His love was shown,
		when we repent of our sin, there is glory forevermore

when we let love seep in, we become saints who live life for Him
when we feel the faith and hope, we know what it means to be redeemed.

Fight

I don’t know who this song is for, anymore.. 
I got so much going through my mind.
Is this for you, or is this for me.
I can not tell if this is something to let it all out,?
Or some kind of therapy.

Take a deep breath,?
Take it all in.?
Hold on tight, 
It’s going be a long run.

Make it, make it, can you make it?
Let’s make this work, on behalf of sincerity, sincerity.
Let’s make this true, take on you.

I wont take a step back,
?I will fight till the end if there is ever an end.
I fight for the love in me it’s making its way to you.

Can you feel it??Can yo u feel it??
Is it something?
I’m not going to let it go,
I’m not going to let you go.

I will fight till the end for you
I will fight till the end for you,?
And I will fight till the end for you,
I will fight till the end just to see you again
I will fight till the end for you 
I will fight till the end, cuz I love you.

Take a deep breath,?Hold it all in.
How many times must I run out,?
I’m losing, I’m losing, but I can’t back down!

I will fight till the end for you
I will fight till the end for you,
?And I will fight till the end for you,
I will fight till the end just to see you again
I will fight till the end for you 
I will fight till the end, cuz I love you.

I’m losing strength, I’m losing strength
I’m losing strength and I’m slowly falling apart.

Take a deep breath,?Take it all in.
Hold on tight it’s going to be a lonely night.
Make it, make it,?Can we make it?
Can we make it?

I will fight till the end for you
I will fight till the end for you,?
And I will fight till the end for you,
I will fight till the end just to see you again
I will fight till the end for you 
I will fight till the end, cuz I love..

I will fight till there is nothing left,
?And I’m falling apart at your feet.
I would do anything just to keep our love..

Getaway

Playing on the radio is a song I wrote for you
I try to not blank out on my lyrics
On your love, I feel oblivious
But I know I'm at my destination
I'm feeling this love deepen

This is the hardest that I've fallen
The biggest steps that I've taken
If life is a game, then we hacked it

Your love is a paradise
I feel it's a getaway
A getaway
Usually I would think twice
But our love is intertwined in our DNA
On my love for you, I could write a whole essay
It's a getaway

I keep trying to get a breakup song idea in my head
For my friend, we thought this guy was a jerk
But all you're doing is making me love again
Every look makes me feels special
Just a glance brings a smile to my face

This is the hardest that I've fallen
The biggest steps that I've taken
If life is a game, then we hacked it

Your love is a paradise
I feel it's a getaway
A getaway
Usually I would think twice
I'm trying not to model a cliché
Expressing how I feel is not exactly my forte
But this feels like a getaway

My friend comments that I seem excited to see you
Cause I only saved your life, that's all
Felt unimaginable, but I knew something was up
Ball pass, 80/20, remember that
That was my vision when I first saw you
This reference makes it obvious as to who I'm rapping about
Can't wait to confess my feelings on old town road
With hearts stuck in my eyes, and sparkles in yours
With twin cowboy hats and zodiac signs

This is the hardest that I've fallen
The biggest steps that I've taken

Your love is a paradise
I feel it's a getaway
A getaway
Usually I would think twice
You have me hoping that life will be okay
And all because of yesterday
I know that this is my getaway

And we're ready to fly now

Premium Member Reverse Polarity

He embraces me with the wind’s rustling prayers,
The hush of autumn thoughts and the music
Breathing quietly on the heart of winter’s charm

He kisses away the darkness with the morning, dew
Sliding over petals and promises, erasing the past
With blessings new every dawn – whispering beauty

He silences the doubts and dread with a hope,
More beautiful than the sunrise or the wonderful
Discovered along the seashore or mountain ridges

He gentles the colors of the rainbow, causing them to 
Smile out encouragement and reminding me to believe
His promises are like the songs of praise, the bird’s songs

He stirs up grace inside my soul, melting the former things
Away, causing me to listen to the harmonizing efforts
Feelings blended with passions and praise, echoing laughter

He enlightens my heart with a memory, a tear, assurance
That He is always here, preventing me from falling from grace,
Falling away from the wonderment of a spirit He has blessed

He pierces the truth with kindness, touching the spirit
Who is free, like the mind who listens to dancing hopes,
Delicate as a feather and just as bold, murmuring light

He invites me into His presence with assurance of sweetest
Love, rich and affectionate – like a mother’s heart,
More beautiful than any wrong I’ve ever known, He is …

The music in my song, the beauty in my heart, the wonder
That helps me along, the uplifting promise when I go wrong
He is my spirit’s yearning – the love that abides, forever alive
Singing hope, faith and grace into the hearts of those I sing to
This is my song – love lives on, always in the heart, always perfect!

My perfect Song – comes from the Son!

Premium Member The Song of Moonshine

We’ll dance to the melody of moonshine
till the sun rises at the dreaming dawn,
you’ll truly be absolutely mine
before to the horizon I’m forever gone.

We’ll dance to the tune of spring breeze,
wafting on the rhythm of the stardust,
you’ll know what love really is,
when I’ll go beyond the sea for I must.

We’ll dance to the melody of moonshine
till the sun rises at the dreaming dawn,
you’ll truly be absolutely mine
before to the horizon I’m forever gone.

We’ll dance to the music of curling waves,
lapping the shining shore of the sea,
you’ll know for me your heart craves
when with you any longer I won’t be.

We’ll dance to the melody of moonshine
till the sun rises at the dreaming dawn,
you’ll truly be absolutely mine
before to the horizon I’m forever gone.

We’ll dance to the song of silver sand,
rolling on the shimmer of the moon ray,
the touch of desire you’ll feel from my hand
when walking on your footprints I’ll go away.

We’ll dance to the melody of moonshine
till the sun rises at the dreaming dawn,
you’ll truly be absolutely mine
before to the horizon I’m forever gone.

Some sunset dusk it’s me you’ll remember,
when I’ll be for long out of your sight,
in the recess of your memory you’ll hear
the song love once sang on moonshine night.

We’ll dance to the melody of moonshine
till the sun rises at the dreaming dawn,
you’ll truly be absolutely mine
before to the horizon I’m forever gone.
