  LISTEN TO THE SONG BY SHIRLEY:
Hi, Friends, tonight, I learned the first popular song after learning vocal music for near 3 years (2 years and 10 months)names Si Nian, in English means Having You In My Mind or To Miss You. Now I would like to introduce it for you:
MAIN MEANING OF THE SONG
Where are you from,
my friend?
Just like a butterfly,
you are flying into my window.
I do not know,
how many days you can stay here,
We have parted for too long time.
Where are you from?
My friend.
Just like a butterfly,
You are flying into my window.
Why there was no your news,
as soon as you left from me.
Only the missed feelings accumulated in my heart.
Are you going to leave in a hurry.
To make the meeting to be a parting again?

CHINESE CHARACTERSLISTEN TO THE SONG BY SHIRLEY:
你从哪里来？
我的朋友，
好像一只蝴蝶，
飞进我的窗口。
不知能作几日停留，
我们已经�直�的太久太久。
你从哪里来？
我的朋友，
好像一只蝴蝶，
飞进我的窗口。
为何你一去便无消息，
只把思念积压在我心头。
难道你又要匆匆离去，
又把聚会当成一次分手。
This is the first time that I sang a popular song, just for helping you to master the Chinese meaning and rememeber the words easily.
 If you have any questions, comments and advice, please write to shirley@ebridge.cn. I am looking forward to hear you opinions and get your help and directions as well.
