softly

အလကၤာေျမာက္တဲ့ ဂီတေတြကို ဒီလိုပဲ ခံစားရတာပါပဲ။ အေဟာင္းျဖစ္ျဖစ္ အသစ္ျဖစ္ျဖစ္ မေဟာင္းမသစ္ျဖစ္ျဖစ္ ဘဝရယ္ ရသရယ္ ဇီဝရယ္ ေပါင္းစပ္ထားတဲ့ ဂီတေတြဟာ “အေသစနက” ျဖည့္စြက္စရာမ႐ွိ ၿပီးျပည့္စံုေနတာပါပဲ။ ဒီေန႔ေတာ့ အမွတ္တရ ေတးေရးဆရာ Norman Gimbeleနဲ႔ Charles Foxတို႔ ေရးစပ္ၿပီး Roberta Flankသီဆိုထားတဲ့ Grammy Winning သီခ်င္းတစ္ပုဒ္ ပါဠိဘာသာျပန္ျဖစ္တယ္။ Killing me softly with his songပါ။

“Killing me softly with his song”

By Roberta Flank

Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song

I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style
And so I came to see him, to listen for a while
And there he was, this young boy, a stranger to my eyes

Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song

I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he’d found my letters and read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish, but he just kept right on

Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song

He sang as if he knew me

In all my dark despair

And then he looked right through me as if I wasn’t there

And he just kept on singing

Singing clear and strong

Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly, with his words

Songwriters: Norman Gimbel / Charles Fox
