Night fog

Getting back to our "cannot forget" memory theme, we have today a Chinese song titled "夜雾 | Yè wú" (Night fog), or as the English version would be titled, "So much fog tonight". I found it as I dug up the songs from this post, and I loved it, so I decided to translate it. It was, however, not that easy, and busy as I was with those songs' lyrics, I left it waiting for some time. Then, around 18:30 on Jun 7 2018, I thought about a Hakka translation, and did it, and posted it on Hakka Lyrics. On Jun 16 in the morning (~11), I finally managed to do an English version. The line «I believed you when you said» was originally «I remember how you said» (11:04) and then «I believed how you would say» (12:55), and the below version first appears in my files on a post save for this post, dated 16/9/18. So I guess the change was made for the post, when I drafted it. Which I cannot date, unfortunately. [Well actually… we first have «I remember all your words», then «I trusted all your words», then at 12:55 on 16/6/18 we get «I've trusted all your words», then a 12:57:44 screenshot shows «I believed how you would say» in the translation note. Also, in the next line, "true" was added at 12:56. The version «I believed you when you said» is from drafting time, specifically a screenshot from 15:37:50 on 16/6/18 shows it probably about to be typed. Drafting took about 50min.] Let's get to it!

这夜雾茫茫 不知你在何方 你的声音    你的模样 叫我难忘 ＊我相信你的话 我两爱情永不变 地久天长 不料    不料想 @你留下寂寞 你留下惆怅 就像这夜    雾茫茫 谁知道你    在何方 这夜雾茫茫 不见月光星光 你的温柔    你的善良 叫我难忘 ＊ ＃ ＃ 里这夜雾茫茫 毋不知汝你在何方 若你（的）个的声音    若你（的）个的模样 喊叫涯我难忘 ＊涯我相信汝你个的话 两人爱情永无变 地久天长 无没料    无没料想 @汝你留下寂寞 汝你留下惆怅 就像里夜    里这茫茫 么侪谁知汝你    在何方 里这夜雾茫茫 毋不见月光星光 若你（的）个的温柔    若你（的）个的善良 喊叫涯我难忘 ＊ ＃ ＃

So much fog tonight
I know not where you be might
Your voice and your face    cannot flee
My memory

# I believed you when you said
That our true love would never change
For all eternity
My thought could    never be

* You'd leave me loneliness
And such great sadness
As vast as    the fog tonight
Who knows where you    now be might?

So much fog tonight
Stars and moon don't give light
Your tender and kind heart    cannot flee
My memory
