Video set to the song “Cheers” by the late Hong Kong singer Danny Chan (whose own life, ironically, was a tragedy.)  The two videos are identical: the first is YOUTUBE and the second YOUKU (for our Chinese readers who cannot access YOUTUBE.)

Why do you have to suffer the agony of pain?

Hurry up and race towards the path of joy.

Even if there is only one iota of heat left

You still have to radiate light.

Seek and hold on to the good things of life.

When the spring breeze blows, the grass will awaken

There will never be a dead end.

Who knows what changes tomorrow will bring?

Why be pessimistic or believe in fate?

Like the sun which has just risen

You have to believe in a bright future.

Life is so precious; we’re all cheering for you.

On the way I will be by your side gently supporting you

You will make me feel so proud.

May blessing and happiness be with you all your life!

Turn every sigh into the will to live

Confidence will unravel the knots of life and death

Cloud and mist will disappear and the bright sun will emerge

I sincerely wish you will embark on that bright road to the future

I offer you my warmest wishes and constant cheers.
