His Majesty King Bhumibol Song - Falling Rain(สายฝน)

Falling Rain





Lyric:
Rain winds sweep across the plain.
Thunder rumbles on high.
Lightening flashes; Bows the grain.
Birds in fright nestward fly.
But the rain pours down in blessing;
Filled with cheer our hearts expand.
As the woods with notes of pleasure ring,
Sunlight streams o'er the land.
Bright the rainbow comes in view.
All the world's cool and clean.
Angels' tears the flowers renew.
Nature glistens in green.
Rain beads sparkle in your hair, love.
Rainbows glitter when you smile.
Thus we soon forget the clouds above,
Beauty so does beguile.

His Majesty King Bhumibol Song- Blue Day (A-dhit-up-sagn)


Blue Day (A-dhit-up-sagn)
    Lyric :
   Blue day

There’s no sunshine
    Why must you go away,
      leaving me here alone?
    My own.
    How I miss you
     With loving heart so true!
   That's why I feel so blue.
Dear one,
What's the good of
Days without the sun,
Or peaceful nights
Without the moon?
But soon
No more blue day.
Whenever I meet you
Then all my dreams come true.
Blue day
Gloomy blue day,
When you are far away,
Why must we be apart?
Sweetheart,
Dear, I love you
With all my heart, I do
That's why I feel so blue.
My love,
Skies are so grey,
Cloudy up above,
Dear won't you please
Come back to me?
There'll be
No more blue day.
Again the sun will shine.
That day I'll make you mine
