Arranged specially for the ACJC Alumni Choir in May 2020 by renowned Xinyao composer and CEO of All Saints Home Samuel Tan, the piece was originally composed in 2015 as the theme song for the documentary “The Songs We Sang”. The lyrics are by the late Heng Cheng Hwa, to whom Samuel dedicates this arrangement.

Lyrics:
记得吗 你曾听过一首歌
有你的年少时光 那些欢笑哀愁
记得吗 你曾写过一首歌
献给你曾爱的人 和你的青春
记得吗 你曾有过一个梦
一路走过的挣扎 不可能的神话
记得吗 你在沉默中高歌
因为这里从来不曾有春天
从不曾告别 不曾离去
从不曾忘记 想起点点滴滴
每一次总在 起起落落的浪涛中
一再和梦与歌相遇
记得吗 你曾听过一首歌
有你跌宕的人生 那些璀璨年华
记得吗 你曾写过一首歌
写出你内心的疼 和你的真
从不曾告别 不曾离去
从不曾忘记 想起点点滴滴
每一次总在 起起落落的浪涛中
一再和梦与歌相遇
记得吗 你曾有过一个梦
一路走过的挣扎 已不再是神话
记得吗 你在喧哗中高歌
一直都在追寻自己的春天
记得吗 开在沙漠的花
终于拥有自己美丽的春天

English Translation:
Do you remember? You heard a song
Which captured the time you were younger, the joys and the sorrows
Do you remember? You wrote a song
For those you have loved and for your youth
Do you remember? You had a dream
The struggles encountered along the way, the impossible myth
Do you remember? You sang in the silence
Because there was never a spring here
Never bid goodbye, never left
Never forgotten, remembering every detail
Every time always, in the ups and downs of the waves
Repeatedly meeting with dream and song
Do you remember? You heard a song
Which captured your eventful life, the shining years
Do you remember? You wrote a song
Which spoke of your pain and your sincerity
Never bid goodbye, never left
Never forgotten, remembering every detail
Every time always, in the ups and downs of the waves
Repeatedly meeting with dream and song
Do you remember? You had a dream
The struggles encountered along the way, no longer an impossible myth
Do you remember? You sang loudly amidst the chaos
Always in pursuit of your own spring
Do you remember? The flower that bloomed in the desert
Finally has its own beautiful spring
