Lopen op het water

Author: DJ

Lopen op het water or Walking on the water by Marco Borsato and Sita.

In one second,
sunlight came through the clouds.

One second with you is more beautiful than,
an eternity alone.

I was scared to cherish,
And my heart has been standing still,
But with your arms around my waist,
I can take on the world.

Dancing on the stars,
Four seasons in one night,
This is one second,
Broken loose from gravity.

Walking on the water,
Seeing sunlight before day and dew,
Flying without wings,
All because of you.

You reveal me your secrets,
That is everything I wanted to hear,
They were safe with me,
But I share them easily with you.

All my thoughts and all my dreams,
Are only aimed at you,
I jump smiling in the deep,
With my eyes closed.

Dancing on the stars,
Four seasons in one night,
This is one second,
Broken loose from gravity.

Walking on the water,
Seeing sunlight before day and dew,
Flying without wings,
All because of you.

Dancing on the stars,
Four seasons in one night,
This is one second,
Broken loose from gravity.

Walking on the water,
Seeing sunlight before day and dew,
Flying without wings,
All because of you.

One second with you is more beautiful than,
an eternity alone.
This is one second,
Broken loose from gravity.

I feel safe with you,
Your arms around my waist.

All because of you.

Dare to Live (Vivere) by Andrea Bocelli and Laura Pausini, for Action Aid.

Try looking at tomorrow not yesterday
And all the things you left behind
All those tender words you did not say
The gentle touch you couldn’t find

In these days of nameless faces
There is no one truth but only pieces
My life is all i have to give

Dare to live until the very last
Dare to live forget about the past
Dare to live giving something of yourself to others
Even when it seems there’s nothing more left to give

Ma se tu vedessi l’uomo
Davanti al tuo portone
Che dorme avvolto in un cartone,
Se tu ascoltassi il mondo una mattina
Senza il rumore della pioggia,
Tu che puoi creare con la tua voce,
Tu, pensi i pensieri della gente,
Poi, di Dio c’e solo Dio.

Vivere, nessuno mai ce l’ha insegnato,
Vivere, non si può vivere senza passato,
Vivere è bello anche se non l’hai chiesto mai,
Una canzone ci sarà, qualcuno che la canterà

Dare to live searching for the ones you love
(Perché, perché, perché, perché non vivi questa sera?)
Dare to live no one but we all
(Perché, perché, perché, perché non vivi ora?)
Dare to live until the very last
(Perché, perché, perché la vita non è vita)
Your life is all you have to give (Perché)
non l’hai vissuta
Vivere!

Dare to live until the very last
(Perché, perché, perché Ia vita non è vita)
Your life is all you have to give (Perché)
non l’hai vissuta mai

I will say no (I will say yes)
Say dare to live
Dare to live

Some photos and a video clip of Hortus Botanicus Leiden Fish Pond. I never knew there were fishes down there until I saw another student playing with them. I made some new friends that day and will keep going back to play with them later.

A few photos I took of the NS train with sports theme at Leiden Centraal Station on April 29, 2008. I love these colorful trains with various sports themes, showing support/sponsor of the World Cup or the Olympics.
