The first train, a night-shift nurse and warm soup give ordinary names an answering voice.

Before the city wakes, someone is keeping watch.

Cantonese pop-hymn direction · Lingwan · ordinary people’s light

Those clearing last night’s rain or carrying hot soup may never stand on a stage, yet they help the city wake. At night a nurse is still working and a tea stall saves something warm. Care becomes a stretch of road and a lamp; remembrance does not require heroism.

The Cantonese pop-hymn brief imagines Lingwan’s lead with piano, cello, guitar and a gentle answering choir. Its concern is the weight of ordinary work rather than a sermon. Even a small thing done today may carry light of its own.

Read the lyrics

[Intro]
每盞燈都有姓名，
每雙手都有事情。

[Verse 1]
清晨第一班車開，
有人靜靜上月台。
有人掃走昨夜雨，
有人捧住熱湯來。

[Pre-Chorus]
佢哋未必企在台前，
城市因佢哋醒來。

[Chorus]
每盞燈都有姓名，
每顆心都有回聲。
你為我守住一段路，
我為你留住一盞燈。
平凡唔等於輕，
溫柔一樣有力撐。
當全城一齊唱起，
微光都可以照天明。

[Instrumental Interlude]
[piano and cello, gentle wordless church choir]

[Verse 2]
夜更護士未落班，
的士司機過幾關。
茶檔留低一碗暖，
等個夜歸人食餐。

[Choir Refrain]
你為我守住一段路，
我為你留住一盞燈。
當全城一齊唱起，
微光都可以照天明。

[Final Chorus]
每盞燈都有姓名，
每顆心都有回聲。
平凡人一齊唱起，
微光都可以照天明。

[Outro]
每顆心都有回聲。
