Question: Do you sometimes feel lost in translation!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Yes!. Translations are never able to reproduce perfectly and somehow lose the sting and substance of the original!. Perhaps it is the same way as words are never able to truly and completely portray our thoughts and feelings to another!. Any translation must only be taken as a merely reasonable representation!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes, if you mean do sometimes people misunderstand and misinterpret me (my personality) and my good intentions!.

Now here are the lyrics to Bye Bye Blackbird:

Pack up all my care and woe,
Here I go,
Singing low,
Bye bye blackbird,
Where somebody waits for me,
Sugar's sweet, so is she,
Bye bye
Blackbird!

No one here can love or understand me,
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me,
Make my bed and light the light,
I'll be home late tonight,
Blackbird bye bye!.

Pack up all my care and woe,
Here I go,
Singing low,
Bye (bye) bye (bye) blackbird!.
(tchoo tchoo tchoo tchoo tchoo tchoo)
Where somebody waits for me,
Sugar's sweet, so is she,
Bye (bye) bye (bye) blackbird!.
(tchoo tchoo tchoo tchoo tchoo tchoo)

No one here can love or understand me,
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me,
(Oh oh oh oh)
Make my bed, light that light,
I'll be home late tonight,
Blackbird!.!.!.

Make my bed and light the light,
I'll be home late tonight,
Leave you bird jet in the sky
Toodle oo!
Farewell!
Bye bye!

Blackbird
(Blackbird,Blackbird)
We'll take the flying little blackbird bye!Www@QuestionHome@Com
