Khù khờ ca




Unlonely

Pretend



Pretend you're happy when you're blue
It isn't very hard to do
And you'll find happiness without an end
Whenever you pretend
Remember anyone can dream
And nothing's as bad as it may seem
The little things you haven't got could be a lot if you pretend
You'll find a love you can share
One you can call all your own
Just close your eyes she'll be there
You'll never be alone
And if you sing this melody
You'll be pretending just like me
The world is mine it can be yours my friend
So why don't you pretend

Ngọt

Ôi mấy năm nay tôi vui chơi nhiều Ôi mấy năm nay xung quanh toàn tình yêu Ôi mấy năm nay gặp may gặp may Tôi thấy như tôi thật hay thật hay Mẹ tôi đưa tôi đi chơi bờ hồ Nếu tôi không muốn thì tôi sẽ khóc Tôi mới lên ba, lên ba, lên ba Đi chơi bờ hồ, ngồi trên ghế đá không làm gì. Ôi sáng nay sao tôi thấy tồi tệ Ôi sáng nay sao tôi dậy muộn thế Ôi sáng nay sao, làm sao làm sao Tôi thấy ai treo đầu tôi lên cao Tôi phóng ra xe, hôm nay đi học Nếu tôi còn bé thì tôi sẽ khóc Nhưng đã hai mươi, hai mươi, hai mươi Lên xe đi học, lại ngồi lên ghế không làm gì. Để không làm gì. Để không làm gì. Trong suốt năm nay tôi đã làm gì Không biết năm nay tôi cứ về rồi đi Cứ thế tôi đi đi tới công ti Năm tháng vui chơi biệt li, biệt li Tôi phóng ra xe, hôm nay đi làm Nếu tôi còn bé thì tôi sẽ khóc Nhưng đã hai mươi, ba mươi, ba mươi Lên xe đi làm, lại ngồi lên ghế không làm gì. Để không làm gì. Để không làm gì. Để không làm gì.

Lại mà nghe bài hát cho em,
xin đừng trách anh không hát hay,
đừng trách anh không khéo tay chơi đàn
vì thật ra lâu không hát cho em,
lâu không hát cho hai chúng ta,
những thứ không ai nói ra anh sợ quên.

Nhận lời thơ anh viết cho em
viết cho những tháng ngày ham chơi,
em bước theo anh khắp nơi trong nhà
để cùng ngân nga bài hát cho nhau,
cho những tháng ngày khó khăn,
em biết đi tìm thức ăn cho cả  hai.

Và anh biết em biết anh vốn không thiết gì viết thêm tình ca,
chỉ tội làm vương vấn nhau,
có lợi gì cho lúc sau
Khi anh đi miết anh biết giờ có cần thiết nữa đâu một tình ca,
nhưng nếu tương lai đường có chia hai còn nhớ lấy phút giây

Anh đã chán phải mua bình an mà bán thời gian viết tình ca,
chỉ tội làm mong nhớ thêm,
đâu là lời ru mỗi đêm
Vì điều buồn nhất khi thất tình bất bình mất đi tất cả tình ca,
nhưng nếu mai sau mình có xa nhau còn nhớ lấy phút giây

em lại gần đây anh hát cho nghe,
hát cho những đêm đông khó khăn,
em đến bên ai đắp chăn mà ngủ quên

Hát cho những đêm đông khó khăn,
em đến bên ai đắp chăn mà ngủ quên.




Vẫn những câu hỏi nhỏ
Sau bao tháng chia ly
Anh vẫn thường thắc mắc
Khi anh không làm gì...

Em dạo này có còn xem phim một mình
Em dạo này có đồ ăn và shopping
Ngày xuân em có xuống phố không người
Và tán dương cỏ cây lặng thinh

Em dạo này có đi xa cuối tuần
Em dạo này có gặp Vy và Xuân
Hàng đêm em có nghe hát xa xăm
Từ quán ăn phù du ngoài sân

Và tình yêu và tình yêu và tình yêu mới
Dạo này đã có khiến em cười
Và tiền tiêu và quần áo và đồ chơi mới
Xin nhớ thay nuông chiều làm ta lười hơn

(Và người yêu và người yêu và người yêu mới
Hay giờ này em đã có chồng rồi
Và tình yêu và buồn vui và kỳ lạ mới
Xin nhớ thay nuông chiều làm ta hồi xuân)

Anh dù không muốn tình cờ gặp lại nhau lần nữa
Nhưng em có đi trà đá Hồ Gươm?
Dạo này em có đi trà đá Hồ Gươm?






Xanh
Mơ một giấc mơ màu xanh
Âm nhạc lướt đi thật nhanh
Như một thói quen của anh

Con đường màu xanh
Xanh màu lá, xanh đại dương
Em là nắng, anh là sương
Không còn nhớ không còn thương
Thiên đường

Cho tới khi
Báo thức bắt anh quay về thực tế
Trong một giây vượt qua giấc mơ chợt quên chợt quên đi chuyện tình hư cấu

Xanh
Như màu áo phông của anh
Như làn nước cá vờn quanh
Như một đóa hoa màu xanh
Trong lành

Anh ngáp dài
Giấu giấc mơ em sâu vào chăn gối
Xanh thật xanh một câu hát ru rồi phai nhòa phai nhòa trong ban sớm

Chỉ khi con mắt kéo anh vào đêm tối
Không có thời gian cho anh từ chối
Anh mới nhận ra những gì mình quên lãng
Nơi ta gặp nhau đó đây cùng năm tháng

Nhiều khi anh đã cố đi tìm vội vã
Để có một giây viết lên tình ca
Em đi lặng lẽ rất nhanh vượt qua anh

Giờ anh nhìn thấy bóng em bên trong màu xanh


Treasure

Alone Again (Naturally)

Counting Stars



Lately I been, I been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby I been, I been prayin' hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars
Yeah, we'll be counting stars
I see this life
Like a swinging vine
Swing my heart across the line
In my faces flashing signs
Seek it out and ye shall find
The old, but I'm not that old
Young, but I'm not that bold
And I don't think the world is sold
I'm just doing what we're told
I, feel something so right
Doing the wrong thing
I, feel something so wrong
But doing the right thing
I could lie, could lie, could lie
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive
Lately I been, I been losing sleep
Dreaming 'bout the things that we could be
Baby I been, I been prayin' hard
Said no…

Count on me



If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea,
I'll sail the world to find you
If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can't see,
I'll be the light to guide you
Find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
You can count on me like one two three
I'll be there
And I know when I need it I can count on you like four three two
You'll be there
'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh yeah
Whoa, whoa
Oh, oh
Yeah, yeah
If you tossin' and you're turnin' and you just can't fall asleep
I'll sing a song
Beside you
And if you ever forget how much you really mean to me
Everyday I will
Remind you
Ooh
Find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
You can count on me like one two three
I'll…

Let Go

A 90 sec. film from amazing Arunachal (India). Arunachal is one of the most incredible but less explored regions of India. A place of breathtaking beauty that fills the mind with calm and tranquility.

Film credits:
Words and Images by Nitin Das (filmkaar.com);
Music - Rainy Embrace (Apple Music Library).




Let go the darkness,
Let go the night.
Clear a little space,
Let in the light.

Let go your loss
Let go your pain.
Dark clouds pass,
So will the rain.

Let go your anger
Let go your hate.
Escape the prison,
Unlock the gate.

Let go the hurt
Let go the regret,
Peace flows when you
forgive and forget

Let go your fears
Let go your tears
Add a little life,
to these fleeting years.

When you are feeling low,
Just remember
Nothing lasts forever

Transcendental Meditation



By David Lynch

True happiness lies within.

Catching Ideas

Ideas are like fish.

If you want to catch little fish, you can stay in a shallow water. But if you want to catch the big fish, you've got to go deeper.

Down deep, the fish are more powerful and more pure. They are huge and abstract. And they're very beautiful.

...Everything, anything that is a thing, comes up from the deepest level. Modern physics calls that level the Unified Field. The more your consciousness - your awareness - is expanded, the deeper you go toward this source, the bigger the fish that you can catch.

Fire

Sitting in front of a fire is mesmerizing. It's magical. I feel the same way about electricity. And smoke. And flickering lights.

Religion

All religions flow ultimately to the one ocean. Transcendental Meditation is a technique to experience that ocean, and it's a technique practiced by people from all religions. Transcendental Meditation itself is not a religion - it's not against any religion; it's not against anything.

Success and Failure

You have to learn to find balance in success and failure. Success can kill you just as failure can. And the only way to have balance in success and failure is to function on that Unified Field level. There's your friend. You can't fake it - you're either in that field or you're not. And when that field is fully enlivened, you can't lose, no matter what happens.

Drugs

We all want expanded consciousness and bliss. And a lot of people look for it in drugs. But the problem is that the body, the physiology, takes a hard hit on drugs. Drugs injure the nervous system, so they just make it harder to get those experiences on your own.

... Besides, far more profound experiences are available naturally. When your consciousness starts expanding, those experiences are there. All those things can be seen. It's just a matter of expanding that ball of consciousness. And the ball of consciousness can expand to infinite and unbounded. It's totality. You can have totality. So all these experiences are there for you, without the side effects of drugs.

Advice

The thing about meditation is: You become more and more you.

Stay true to yourself. Let your voice ring out, and don't let anybody fiddle with it. Never turn down a good idea, but never take a bad idea. And meditate. It's very important to experience that Self, that pure consciousness.

...So start diving within, enlivening that bliss consciousness. Grow in happiness and intuition. Experience the joy of doing. And you'll glow in this peaceful way. Your friends will be very, very happy around you. Everyone will want to sit next to you.

Compassion

"Softer than the flower where kindness is concerned,

Stronger than the thunder where principles are at stake."

~ Vedic Definition of the Enlightened


Meditation is not a selfish thing. Even though you're diving in and experiencing the Self, you're not closing yourself off from the world. Youre strengthening yourself, so that you can be more effective when you go back out into the world. It's like they say on airplanes: "First put your mask on, and then help those next to you put theirs on."...

So compassion, appreciation for others, and the capacity to help others are enhanced when you meditate. You start diving down and experiencing this ocean of pure love, pure peace  - you could say pure compassion. You experience that, and know it by being it. Then you go out into the world, and you can really do something for people.

Turn on the Light

What light you can turn on that removes negativity the way sunlight removes darkness? It's the light of pure consciousness, the Self - the light of unity.

Don't fight the darkness. Don't even worry about the darkness. Turn on the light and the darkness goes. Turn up that light of pure consciousness: Negativity goes.
...

We're like lightbulbs. If bliss starts growing inside you, it's like a light; it affects the environment.

If you go into a room where someone's been having a big argument, it's not so pleasant. You can feel it. Even if the argument's over, you can feel it. But if you go into a room where someone has jush finished meditating, you can feel that bliss. It's very nice to feel that.

We all affect our environments. You enjoy that light inside, and if you ramp it up brighter and brighter, you enjoy more and more of it. And that light will extend out farther and farther.
...

Like lightbulbs, we can enjoy that brighter light of consciousness within, and also radiate it. I believe that the key to peace is in this.

If there were ten thousand new meditating students, it would affect this country. It would be like a wave of peace. It's harmony, coherence - real peace. In the individual, that light of consciousness drives negativity further and further away. In the world, it can do the same thing.

Real Peace

We know that in one human being, when you ramp up consciousness - when you ramp up that light of unity - negative things begin to recede. In that individual, you see more and more intelligence, more and more creativity, more and more bliss, negativity going away, and positive influence pouring out into the world. So if there were many, many meditators, it would be beautiful. But even without that, small groups of advanced meditators could still make a huge difference.

The theory is that if the square root of 1 percent of the world's population, or 8000 people, practices advanced meditation techniques in a group, then that group, according to published research, is quadratically more powerful than the same number scattered about.

These peace-creating groups have been formed for short-term studies. And every time the advanced meditators got together in a group, they dramatically affected the area around them. They measurably reduced crime and violence. How did they do that?

There is a field of unity within everyone. It's always been there. It's unbounded, infinite and eternal. It's that level of life that never had a beginning. It is, and it will be, forever. And it can be enlivened. In the human being, the enlivening of that field leads to enlightenment - the full potential of the individual. In the world, the result of enlivening unity by a peace-creating group world be real peace on earth.

People are coming to realize that it is just so beautiful: this dive within, this transcending, and this experience of the Unified Field, where everything comes from. It is a Field of pure bliss consciousness, absolute intelligence, and infinite creativity.

Everything I experience today brings me back again and again to where I started: True happiness lies within.

In Closing

I'd like to say: I deeply love film; I love catching ideas; and I love to meditate. I love enlivening unity. And I think the enlivening of unity brings a better and better life. Maybe enlightening is far away, but it's said that when you walk toward the light, with every step, things get better and brighter. Every day, for me, gets better and better. And I believe that enlivening unity in the world will bring peace on earth. So I say: Peace to all of you.

May everyone be happy. May everyone be free of disease.
May auspiciousness be seen everywhere. May suffering belong to no one.

Peace.

David Lynch

The Dance of the Creator



“Consciousness expresses itself through creation. This world we live in is the dance of the creator. Dancers come and go in the twinkling of an eye but the dance lives on. On many occasions when I am dancing, I have felt touched by something sacred. In those moments, I felt my spirit soar and become one with everything that exists. 

I become the stars and the moon. I become the lover and the beloved. I become the victor and the vanquished. I become the master and the slave. I become the singer and the song. I become the knower and the known. I keep on dancing then it is the eternal dance or creation. The creator and creation merge into one wholeness of joy. I keep on dancing…and dancing…and dancing. Until there is only…the dance.” 

~ Michael Jackson
