Cannonball by Damien Rice, Ost. Spring Waltz

—-

Still a little bit of your song in my ear
Still a little bit of your words I long to hear
You step a little closer to me
So close that I can’t see what’s going on..

Familiar with those song??

Yeah.. lagu itu biasa dinyanyikan saat kita kemping di pramuka, acara api unggun, sambil saling melempar kata / bait pada teman satu lingkaran. Permainan dasar yg biasa dimainkan oleh anak2 di indonesia. Liriknya bisa bersambung-sambung, kata pertama biasanya mengambil dari kata terakhir bait sebelumnya. Misalnya:

A: Sedang apa, sedang apa, sedang apa sekarang? 

B: Sekarang sedang makan, sedang makan, sedang makan sekarang. Makan apa, makan apa, makan apa sekarang?

C: Sekarang makan nasi, makan nasi, makan nasi sekarang. Nasi apa, nasi apa, nasi apa sekarang?

And so on. Sampai habis satu putaran. Bagi yg tidak bisa meneruskan lagu biasanya akan kena hukuman dari teman2nya yg laen.

Tapi tahukah kamu, kalau lagu ’sedang apa’ itu sebenarnya sebuah ‘American western folk ballad’ dgn judul asli Oh My Darling, Clementine.

Here I upload the original lyrics: 

Clementine

In a cavern, In a canyon,
Excavating for a mine,
Dwelt a miner forty-niner,
And his daughter Clementine.

Chorus:
Oh my darling, Oh my darling,
Oh my darling Clementine,
You are lost and gone forever,
Dreadful sorry Clementine.

Repeat chorus

Light she was and like a fairy,
And her shoes were number nine;
Herring boxes, without topses,
Sandals were for Clementine.

Repeat chorus

Drove she ducklings to the water,
Every morning just at nine;
Hit her foot against a splinter,
Fell into the foaming brine.

Repeat chorus

Ruby lips above the water,
Blowing bubbles, soft and fine;
But Alas! I was no swimmer,
So I lost my Clementine.

Repeat chorus

When the miner forty-niner,
Soon began to peak and pine,
Thought he oughter "jine" his daughter,
Now he’s with his clementine.

Repeat chorus

In a corner of the churchyard,
Where the myrtle boughs entwine,
Grow the roses in their poses,
Fertilized by Clementine.

Repeat chorus

In my dreams she still doth haunt me,
Robed in garments soaked in brine.
Though in life I used to hug her,
Now she’s dead, I’ll draw the line.

Repeat chorus

How I missed her, how I missed her
How I missed my Clementine.
So I kissed her little sister,
And forgot my Clementine.

Repeat chorus

Now you Boy Scouts, there’s a moral
To this little tale of mine.
Artificial respiration,
Would have saved my Clementine.

Repeat chorus

 

Kykny baru kali ini aku nulisin suatu hal about me and mon beacoup (read: my boku)

Yeah, coz i think ‘those’ things filed under my private area, not for public consumption.. But, it just crossed my mind, when my friend asking me "what makes you both belong together for all this time??" hmm.. let me think… and i still got no answer for that

We’re just too different each other, my interest is far far away from his hobby, his sport channel keep me fall asleep, i took one course for 1,5 years that he passed within 2 month ) i like to play music and singing while his voice is out of tone I can sit all days watching romantic ‘korean’ movies when he sitting in front of his pc and playing game all the time I can do window shopping for many hours with my friend when he choose to sleep at home.. bhuehehehe.. I’m just like the girl next door and he’s just like the boys in basketball field.

So, what makes us together for all this time (it’s almost 3 yrs, rite?) hmm.. with all those differences between us, maybe the answer just one clearly thing. It’s all about L.O.V.E.

Ca, va?? Je pense que Il m’aime beacoup…

Duh, lama banget ga nge-blog.. it’s been 2 month since my last post posted.. Many things happened 3 weddings in december that i didn’t present  1 childbirth on 29th dec.. congrats beyb.. and 1 pre-wed in plan
