【新唐人2014年10月24日訊】9月28號開啓的「和平佔領中環」活動，催生不少感人歌曲。有些是久已有之的經典名曲，有些則是專門為這次活動創作的新鮮曲目。這些迴盪的歌聲，激昂人心，尤其不少老歌，再次紅翻全港。
《海闊天空》：「今天我 寒夜裡看雪飄過 懷著冷卻了的心窩漂遠方 風雨裏追趕 霧裡分不清影蹤 天空海闊你與我 可會變（誰沒在變）」
這首耳孰能詳的歌曲，讓不少人感慨：歌還是老的好!
由香港知名樂團Beyond 93年就開始發行的《海闊天空》，也許從來沒有如此重要過。特別當9月29號晚上，Beyond樂隊的吉他手黃貫中（Paul）到旺角現場聲援，與超過10萬香港民眾大合唱時，那場景讓不少人感動掉淚。大家大聲唱著歌詞，唱著彼此的心聲。
《海闊天空》：「原諒我這一生不羈放縱愛自由 也會怕有一天會跌倒 背棄了理想 誰人都可以 那會怕有一天只你共我」
《海闊天空》或許是本次運動中唱得最多的歌曲。這首宣示香港人風雨中擁抱自由決心的歌，在這次的社會運動中再次復活，並迅速唱遍香港的大街小巷！
廣州畫家何國泉：「它反映了香港人的心聲，也是反映我們大陸人的心聲啊，不光是香港的問題，是整個中國人想的東西。海闊天空那多好啊！追求自由，是人就要追求自由。Beyond的歌曲本身就很有意義，對社會的文明進步都是很有意義的。那些歌都寫的很好。」
同樣是Beyond合唱的《光輝歲月》，搭配航拍佔中民眾抗爭場面，也被選為這次佔中的典型勵志歌曲之一。
《光輝歲月》：「今天只有殘留的軀殼 迎接光輝歲月 風雨中抱緊自由 一生經過傍徨的掙扎 自信可改變未來 問誰又能做到」
歌曲傳遞的平等博愛，在這場雨傘革命中，被詮釋的格外貼切和真實。其中包含著抗爭和希望，也包含著「自信可改變未來」的擔當和勇氣。
北京某足球俱樂部經理孟雅春：「挺激動人心的。《光輝歲月》本身是寫給曼德拉的，追求自由的一生，跟香港現在這個抗爭非常切合的。我覺得香港人現在就是開始清醒，香港人很痛苦，痛苦的思考，就是要自由啊！因為它已經被赤化得很久了。」
《撐起雨傘》：「站在前方 勇氣驅不散 卻信越怕命運更黯淡 但是誰想 要看穿荒誕卻會在催淚下睜開眼」
另一首由何韻詩、黃耀明等歌手，與著名音樂創作人林夕、pan等人，在48小時內合作趕製的《撐起雨傘》，影片一放上Youtube，不到一天就破萬人點閱。金馬影后葉德嫻也在這首歌中獻唱。
《撐起雨傘》：「一起舉傘 舉起手撐 一起為應得的放膽爭取 怕嗎 任暴雨下 志向未倒下 雨傘是一朵朵的花 不枯也不散」
歌曲搭配學運各個地點的抗爭畫面，胡椒噴霧、催淚彈、淚水，以及一把把撐開的傘。不少讀者留言，這是一首「非常溫柔卻又非常堅強的歌」，「讓人不停的想流淚」。
《問誰未發聲》：「試問誰還未發聲 都捨我其誰衛我城 天生有權還有心可作主 誰要認命噤聲」
重新填詞的粵語版《問誰未發聲》，改編自大型音樂劇《悲慘世界》中的經典名曲——《Do You Hear the People Sing》。這首原本描述1832年發生在法國抗議活動的西方歌曲，為當下的香港抗爭平添了幾分歷史份量。歌曲還衍生出「童聲版」、「少女版」及MV版本《孩子問：誰還未覺醒》，先後在網絡熱傳。
此外，《雨傘花》、《撐著》、《堅守》、《傘下奇蹟》等一首首的歌曲，也如同一股股暖流，鼓勵抗爭民眾的心。
《傘下奇蹟》：「用這雨傘編織 彩虹的天 就算失望 卻不退讓 別笑我在空想 虛無飄渺 信有夢想 留待見證 you will when you believe」

Encouraging Songs for Occupy Central in Hong Kong
Many inspiring songs have become popular since the start
of Occupy Central on Sept. 28.
The songs consist of classics as well as newly produced ones,
specially written for the movement.
These songs have become hits in Hong Kong.
Under a vast sky:
The night is bitter cold, the snow is flurrying
My heart is freezing, my mind is wandering
Rushing through the storm, uncertainty surrounded by mist
Between the sky and ocean, will we change in this boundlessness
–No one can escape the changes
This popular old rock song in Hong Kong has many praises:
The old song does sound great to the ear!
‘Under a Vast Sky’ was created by Hong Kong’s famous
rock band, ‘Beyond’, in 1993.
This song has probably never been so significant, till now.
On the evening of Sept. 29, Beyond guitarist Paul, joined
100,000 Hong Kongers in singing this song.
Many were moved to tears. The lyrics speak of everyone’s
mind and soul.
Under A Vast Sky:
Forgive my passion for freedom, and the untamed heart
Even someday I am also frightened, I could fall hard.
Everyone has a choice to betray their beliefs
Even someday I have nothing but you, I wouldn’t be scared
‘Under A Vast Sky’ is perhaps the most sung song
in the movement.
It declares the determination of Hong Kong people
to embrace freedom.
The revival of this classic rock tune has quickly caught on
and is sung throughout all of Hong Kong!
Guangzhou artist He Guoquan: “It reflects the aspirations
of the people, not just in Hong Kong, but also the mainland.
It is not just Hong Kong, mainlanders also want it,
the wonderful ‘vast sky’.
Freedom, that’s what people want.
Beyond’s songs speak to us and to the social civilization.
Their lyrics are just great."
Beyond’s other song, ‘The Glorious Years’, is also chosen
as one of the inspiring theme songs in the Occupy Central.
The Glorious Years:
Today there is only the remains of a shell
To welcome the glorious years
Holding fast to freedom in the wind and rain.
A lifetime of loss and struggle
Believing in one’s ability to change the future
Who else can accomplish this?
Peace and love delivered in the song interprets truthfully
and honestly the Umbrella Revolution.
For there are struggle and hope,
and there are strength and courage
that they believe they can change the future.
Meng Yachun, a Beijing football club manager: “It is very exciting.
The Glorious Years was written for Nelson Mandela.
His lifelong pursuit of freedom fits well with the struggle
in Hong Kong right now.
I think Hong Kong people are now awakening. They are suffering,
suffering from their ideals and their freedom.
Hong Kong has been taken over by the Communist
for a very long time."
Hold Up Your Umbrella:
Standing at the front, courage can’t be dispersed.
For fear will only diminish life
Who is willing to see through the absurd?
And who – through the smoke of tears –
is willing to keep her eyes open?
This ‘Hold Up Your Umbrella’ is another song written in 48 hours
by famous songwriter Lam Chik, Pan, and singers such as
Denise Ho and Anthony Wong.
In a day, more than 10,000 people watched this Youtube clip.
Best Actress Deanie Ip also joined in with the singing.
Hold Up Your Umbrella:
Hold up our umbrellas, hold up our hands, holding on
Together, we’ll be brave, fight for what’s ours, right?
Let the brutal rain fall, our spirit has not flailed
Each umbrella is a bloom, a flower
It doesn’t wilt, it doesn’t disperse
This youtube clip was made with street images of pepper spray,
tear gas, tears, and umbrellas during the protest.
Many readers commented, “very gentle but very stern song",
“people moved to tears."
Who Has Not Voiced:
I ask who has not voiced
If not now, but when to save my city.
With the born right and the mastering heart
I ask who is silent to this misfortune
This re-lyrical Cantonese version was adapted from
‘Do You Hear the People Sing?’ of musical ‘Les Miserables’.
The originally made musical of 1832 protests in France, has
enhanced the Hong Kong movement with the integrity of history.
Various versions of the song such as by child, female singer,
and MV have created a wave of viewers online.
Other songs such as the Umbrella Blossom,
I promise you an umbrella, Stand Strong, When You Believe,
and so forth, warm the hearts and souls of the people
in the fight for democracy.
you will when you believe
When You Believe:
Knitting with umbrella, sky of rainbow
Even when let down, will not return.
Do not laugh at the dream, drifty and vain
Believe in the dream, long in our witness,
You will when you believe
