天才白痴夢 [Why Do We Dream] - Sam Hui 許冠傑 {Cantonese 75}

This is a song from a movie that Sam starred in. The direct English translation of the title is “the stupid dream of a genius”.

The lyrics of the song are about dream. It started off telling us that everyone in the world are chasing after their dreams. But we all get lost in the process, sometimes it looks great, but sometimes it seems to fade away. Life is just like a dream. In this dream, we could suddenly turn upside down. We might feel bitterness when we are searching for happiness, and we haven’t learn to enjoy bitterness with happiness. There is always a purpose in our life and so all of us play an important role in this world. We all can achieve high in our life, there is no need to just dream about it. Dream is just a dream, when we woke up it will be all gone. So why do we need to found our perfect dream if everything is fake. It is better off to just focus on our current life, make the most out of it and enjoy
Everyone Dreams
In dreams directionless
an instant of georgeousness

without knwing its vain
life as a dream
in dreams fate is tossing
seeking glassness but plight
but both would have come

human beings
all have talents
flapping up high
not need in your dream

a fairy tale
It's gone without a trace
A drunk some day awakes
Has he ever been King?

Evil Genius
has his talent
flapping up high
only in his dream

Why do we dream?
In dreams all are in vain
Wish you cherish right now
We'll be gratified most

Why do we dream

  1. It should be 'Why do we dream' at the very end, also as a title, not 'Why don't we dream'.
