EN:
Together they'd share a simple life in the dark.
Folks from all over gathered here.
Six men, four women is what we got.
All very chatty and talk a lot.
Everyone has their own way.
From A to Z and night to day.
Study ten years and you still can't win.
CN:
三更半夜不睡觉
四呜鼓汉乱中高搞
五湖四海飘来的客
六男四女人不少
七言八语真能聊
八仙闹海,各有绝招
九流三教,全都知晓
十无苦读,您也跟我们聊不上一个通宵

EN: This is why the blind and the sighted keep to themselves. In the minds of the blind, the sighted are an entirely different species. A dominant animal… An animal with eyes… An all-seeing creature, possessed of an almost spiritual significance. Their attitude to the sighted is like that of the sighted to the gods: Respective, but kept at a distance.
CN: 盲人一般不和健全人打交道的根本缘由,在盲人的心目中,健全人是另外的一种动物,是更高一级的动物…是有眼睛的动物…是无所不知的动物,具有神灵的意味,他们对待健全人的态度,完全等同于健全人对待鬼神的态度,敬鬼神而远之。

EN: One's a person, the other's a car. If it's a person, and you bump into him, that's love. If it's a car and you bump into it, that's a crash. But cars are always bumping into each other. People tend to move aside.

EN: Fate is truly unpredictable. In the face of fate, both the blind and the sighted are equally superstitious. More or less superstitious. Both believe in fate. Because fate cannot be seen, and the blind cannot see, the blind understand fate better than the sighted.
CN: 命运实在是一件不可捉摸的事情,在命运面前其实盲人和健全人一样,都是迷信的,多多少少有一点迷信。他们相信命,因为命是看不见的,盲人也看不见,所以盲人比健全人更了解什么是命。

CN: 我深爱的那个姑娘,她一点一点吃掉我的眼睛,我的世界,只剩下红色,如果时间可以倒流,我会在第一天就闭上眼,然后什么都看不见…

EN:
Neither sad nor happy.
One half planted in the earth, the other flying in the wind.
One half giving cool shade, the other bathed in the sun.
Deep in silence.
Deep with dignity.
Never in need.
Never seeking.
If there is a next life,
I'd like to be a tree.
Forever standing neither sad nor happy.
One half planted in the earth, the other flying in the wind.
Deep in silence.
Deep with dignity.
CN:
没有悲欢的姿势
一半在尘土里安祥
一半在风里飞杨
一半洒落阴凉
一半沐浴阳光
非常沉默
非常骄傲
从不倚靠
从不寻找
如果有来生
要做一棵树
站成永恒
没有悲欢的姿势
一半在尘土里安祥
一半在风里飞杨
非常沉默
非常骄傲
