One of my favorite C-dramas is Sound of the Desert and one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard n my life is called White Haired Lament - or The Ancient Song of White Hair sang by Della Ding.




I may not be Asian, and some people may say that because of my intense love and fascination of Asian culture that I am trying to white-wash, but that is not it at all. I think the culture, the music, the traditions, the traditional dress, the cities and customs are absolutely gorgeous. It has been my dream for most of my life since I was about 8 to one day go to Asia and see it for myself. Not just South Korea or China, but Japan, Cambodia, Thailand, and anywhere else my feet take me. I'd move there if I could and just spend the rest of my days wandering and exploring and learning.

My love of Oriental culture stems from both of my parents, and some caretakers I had when I was a child. My mother loved to collect vases and figurines and cross stitch scenes of pagodas and birds and geishas, warriors and animals. We had them all over the house. I used to love to look at them. One set in particular she had was a Medieval Chinese Emperor and Empress in red sitting on their thrones. I used to imagine what their stories were and how their palace looked when I was growing up. It filled me with wonder and curiosity so much, that I would look up and read anything about Chinese history - much like people look up Norse and Greek and Irish or Scottish History. I have no Asian in my bloodline, but it has been a fever in my blood since I can remember. The one thing my parents taught me from an early age was the love of all cultures and to be curious and to learn. It teaches tolerance and respect. I taught it to my own children. Would that all parents taught their children that little gem, and there would be a lot less hate in the world.

Whitehead Yin - White Haired Lament also called The Boatman's Song

Author: Zhuo Wenjun (Han Dynasty)



Cliffs such as the mountain snow jiao if the clouds between the moon
Shu Jun has two implications for the rejection.
Today's bucket reception tomorrow Trench head

躞 蹀 the flow of water and things on the ditch
Sad sad married no need to cry
May the human head be bent on the white head apart
Bamboo pole How curl fish tail He Hing
Men heavy How to spend money knife for
Sad sad married no need to cry
May the human head be bent on the white head apart
Sad sad married no need to cry

May the human head be bent on the white head apart
Cliffs such as the mountain snow jiao if the clouds between the moon

This song is about falling in love and thinking you are going to be together for the rest of your lives until your hair turns white with old age, and losing your love. No need to cry forever, life moves on.

Translation from Chinese to English is not easy - they switch nouns and verbs around so when it is literal translation into English, a lot of it sounds funny. But y'all get the general translation of it.
