A Miracle Within Composed by Sydney Tang Original Lyrics by Michael Cheung | YC Woo Translated into English by Sydney Tang Produced by Hei Chiu From the beginning of practising medicine, Devoted to the cause of healing like Hua Tuo. Eager to innovate in teaching, Now is the time for teachers and students to sing as pals. Unafraid of hardships, Striving to break through in research. Melodies resound, spanning a thousand miles, outreaching afar and awide. The heart, lungs, liver, brain, kidneys, glands, blood, skin and muscles summon power to boost immunity and ward off catastrophes like tumours and infections. Rooted in the wisdom of a hundred rivers over a century emerged a famed and all-round Department of Medicine. Engaging in intellectual exchanges, surpassing the former self, Shouldering the past and the future's merits and faults. Silk threads softly spun, embroidered with a thousand stars, Remember to seize every moment and stay vibrant as ever. Narrative: More than a hundred years ago, Hong Kong was going through turbulent times, and its people were plagued by various incurable illnesses. In 1923, the Department of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong emerged in the west end of the city. Over the past century, it has nurtured countless healthcare professionals, benefitting people's livelihood and striving for excellence. The following chronicles the rise of this Department. Lyrics: In the beginning, in the primitive state, Inevitably troubled and helpless. Diseases, like demons, Ravaged and tormented Hong Kong amidst storms. In the west end of the city, Light shone upon the towering mountains, Nurturing healers and spreading love. The heart, lungs, liver, brain, kidneys, glands, blood, skin and muscles summon power to boost immunity and ward off catastrophes like tumours and infections. Rooted in the wisdom of a hundred rivers over a century emerged a famed and all-round Department of Medicine. Transforming into Sherlock Holmes, and Focusing on observing, questioning, listening, examining, improving and sharpening.
