Ying Hua) was one of the more popular female Mandarin song singers from the 1960s era. Her stage name is a literal translation of her Chinese name, Ying Hua, (meaning cherry blossom in Mandarin)! Apparently she was given the nickname when she started singing Japanese numbers in Chinese during her stage performances. She sang in a variety of languages, from Mandarin to Bahasa Malaysia, English and even Japanese. Many of her recordings were accompanied by The Quests.

Sakura was a household name in RTS' Chinese Variety Show in the evenings. A 1967 Radio Weekly article called Sakura a "pint-sized extrovert and live-wire". Her debut EP, featuring the tracks: "Like I Do", "My Bonnie", "Sad Movie" and "Listen People", sold over 25,000 copies when it was released in 1966.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

흩날리는 꽃잎 그 속에서 걸어오는 너 baby
오늘따라 유난히 더 더 멋져보여 feeling good

하루에 몇번씩 너를 가진 상상을 하는지
너는 모를거야 boy 모든게 다 꿈만 같은걸

다른 사람들이 바보같다 해도 나 널 향한 내 맘은 변치않아
사랑한단말도 쉽게 하진 못하지만 그래도 나 그래도 love you love you my boy

빨라지는 걸음 널 만나러 가는 이 시간 baby
기분 좋은 바람이 날 날 감싸오네 feel so good

사랑해 속삭여 하루종일 너에게 말을 해
아침부터 생각나 너를 만나 행복한 나야

다른 사람들이 바보같다 해도 나 널 향한 내 맘은 변치않아
사랑한단말도 쉽게 하진 못하지만 그래도 나 그래도 love you love you my boy

다른 사람들이 바보같다 해도 나 널 향한 내 맘은 변치않아
사랑한단말도 쉽게 하진 못하지만 그래도 나 그래도 love you love you my boy
