Lyrics: Green Island Serenade

Lyricist: Zhou Lanping (周藍萍)
Composer: Pan Yingjie (潘英傑)

This green island, is like a boat
swaying in the moonlight.
Oh my Darling, you are also floating
and drifting in my heart.
 
Let my song be like the breeze
blowing into your window.
Let my love be like the water
flowing towards you.

The coconut tree's long shadow
can't hide my love, as my heart
is lit up by the bright moon.

The night is already so calm and quiet.
Oh my Darling, why are you still silent?

Hey Yiyan, it is more than good to see your good self back here.
With a gift of a poem, your love poem now generously shared, that you have clearly tenderly crafted.
Tranquility and emotions combined which flows and beats superbly.
Is the stunned silence perchance a state of euphoria or simply something, perhaps private. 
It is always so good to read another's writer's spin on things, especially the eternal, undying theme of love. True love
Enjoyed reading very much and deserving honors to you for sharing.
Hope you and the loved ones are good  and the Cambridge weather was also sunny for you and all today.

And Yiyan will be back tomorrow to visit you pages with good intentions and read whatever I've missed.
All the best to you and good things :)
