Brighter Days 更光明的日子

更光明的日子快要到了。   Gèng guāngmíng de rìzi kuàiyào dàole。     Brighter days are coming soon.

The verses above were first published in a school magazine of Victoria School, Singapore, way back in the year 1957 (or was it 1958?) by a student, Lai Pang Fee. There were more verses that are now lost in memory. If there is any person who still retains a copy of this magazine, kindly have those verses added in, thanks.

上面的诗句最早发表在新加坡维多利亚学校的学校杂志上，要追溯到 1957 年（或者是 1958 年？），由学生黎鹏飞 (Lai Pang Fee) 发表。有更多的诗句现在在记忆中丢失了。如果有人还保留着这本杂志的副本，请把这些诗句加进去，谢谢。

Yǒu gèng duō de shījù xiànzài zài jìyì zhōng diūshīle. Rúguǒ yǒurén hái bǎoliúzhe zhè běn zázhì de fùběn, qǐng bǎ zhèxiē shījù jiā jìnqù, xièxiè.

Each darkening night, a new morn bright;
In darkness then, a beaming light!

每一个黑暗的夜晚，都会有一个崭新的黎明；
那么在黑暗中，总会有一丝光芒！
Měi yīgè hēi'àn de yèwǎn, dūhuì yǒu yīgè zhǎnxīn dí límíng;
nàme zài hēi'àn zhōng, zǒng huì yǒu yīsī guāngmáng!

A bier borne, new babe’s born; Dear life must come, why sit and mourn?

一个棺材被带走了，但一个新的婴儿进入了这个世界；亲爱的生命要来了，何必坐着哀悼？
Yīgè guāncai bèi dài zǒule, dàn yīgè xīn de yīng'ér jìnrùle zhège shìjiè; qīn'ài de shēngmìng yào láile, hébì zuòzhe āidào?

A fall, a rise, not otherwise; If fools are born so sages wise!

下跌，上涨，永远是对的，每一次下跌都伴随着上涨。连傻子都知道这个循环！
Xiàdié, shàngzhǎng, yǒngyuǎn shì duì de, měi yīcì xiàdié dōu bànsuízhe shàngzhǎng. Lián shǎzi dōu zhīdào zhège xúnhuán! 

Each withered leaf, new leaflets breathe; Yes, God helps those who are grieved.

每一片枯叶，新的小叶呼吸；
是的，上帝会帮助那些悲伤的人。
Měi yīpiàn kū yè, xīn de xiǎoyè hūxī;
shì de, shàngdì huì bāngzhù nàxiē bēishāng de rén.

One love resigns, new one will find; Come, Saddened Heart, why sit and pine!

一个爱辞职，新的会找到，
来吧，忧伤的心，何必坐视不理！

Yīgè ài cízhí, xīn de huì zhǎodào,
lái ba, yōushāng de xīn, hébì zuòshì bù lǐ!

Lyrics: Que Sera, Sera

When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty
Will I be rich
Here’s what she said to me

Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que sera, sera
What will be, will be

When I grew up and fell in love
I asked my sweetheart, what lies ahead
Will we have rainbows
Day after day
Here’s what my sweetheart said

Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que sera, sera
What will be, will be

Now I have children of my own
They ask their mother, what will I be
Will I be handsome
Will I be rich
I tell them tenderly

Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que sera, sera
What will be, will be
Que sera, sera

Doris Day gives the best rendition of this song ‘Que, Sera, Sera, Whatever will be will be!” https://youtu.be/xZbKHDPPrrc
