Translation of the song 忙碌的人 artist Purple Soul

Chinese

忙碌的人

English translation

Busy people

来来回回早出晚归

Back and forth go out early, come back late

手忙脚乱又忙碌的人们干了这杯

Busy people in a hurry downed this cup

接着想这一辈子都认识了谁

Then think who are all the people they've met in this life

离开了错误但谁靠近了对

Left the mistake, but who comes close to what's right?

可是重复再重复让他们麻木

But repeating and repeating leaves them numb

挖了一个B奴车奴房奴的坟墓

Dug a fucking slave-car, slave-house slave-tomb

欠的太多了还不清谁也不能停

Owe too much and can't pay it back, who can't stop

所有忙碌的人我对你表示同情

I'm sympathetic to all you busy people

日出而作就习惯了保持沉默

Even working at sunrise, just got used to staying quiet

日落而息才敢脱下外衣

At sunset, dare to take off your coat

抓紧时间被利用被浪费

Hurry up to be exploited and wasted

先学习后工作去排个长队

First study then work, wait in a long line

每天天还没亮他们就开始忙

Every day before it's bright they're already getting busy

还有几个没睡的得扛到天亮

There are a few still awake even at dawn

可我着不了那急也真等不了

But I can't take that urgency, and really can't wait

吃完早点接着回家睡觉

Finish eating in the morning then go home and sleep

看看我的大街小巷换了个样

See how my streets and alleys changed

得了吧真没您那么大的面儿

C'mon, I don't have as much face as you

看看路上我问你这些人都来自哪儿

See the road, tell me where are all these people from?

你可以选择开车可必须踩着点儿

You can choose to drive but you have to step on it a bit

没错儿去他妈的上班儿上课

That's right, going to fucking work, to class

去他妈的早起排队堵车

Getting up fucking early, lines, traffic jams

那些人每天走着相同的路

Those people walk the same route every day

辛苦的忙碌为了所谓的幸福

Busy working hard for so called happiness

忙碌的人在按照计划想着办法

Busy people pay a crazy price to achieve

为了收获疯狂的付出代价

Thinking of a solution according to the plan

可贫穷的重复的生活简单又快乐

But the repetitive, impoverished life is simple and happy

复杂又寂寞酸甜苦辣

Complicated and lonely, all sorts of ups and downs*

如果你现在还年轻别为了钱玩儿命

If you're still young, don't live for money

在你做梦的时候关了你的闹铃儿

When you're dreaming, turn off the alarm

我们最根本的本性不是善与恶

Our most fundamental nature is not good and evil

而是回避痛苦追求快乐

But to avoid pain and pursue happiness

可你别忘了什么能做什么不能做

But don't forget what can be done and what can't

现在张开你的嘴巴跟我一起说

Now open your mouth and say it with me:

说没错儿

Say that's right

说去你妈的

Say fuck you

我现在太累了想不想卷一个

I'm too tired now, do you wanna roll one?

请忙碌的人尊重自然的选择

Busy people, please respect natural choices

着急地想快点儿

Anxiously think - hurry up

享受地想慢点儿

Joyfully think - slow down

有时候站在中间寻找两端

Sometimes stand in the middle and look for both sides

有人已经当了老板有的睡在车站

Some people are already bosses, some sleep at the station

有人造了很多孽还有人吃不上饭

Some people have done a lot of evil and some can't eat

新盖了几栋楼又做了几笔生意

Built a few buildings and did some business

换了新的看门儿狗和够劲儿的小蜜

Got a new doorman and a new mistress

有人不偷不抢不干净的不敢想

There are people who don't steal or rob or think unclean

于是城市里的程序化删除了梦想

Till the city programming deletes the dream

难道一上一下从左到了右

Is it going up and down from left to right?

都有责任和欠的债让你承受

Everyone has responsibilities and the debts you owe

记住每时每刻每分每一秒

Remember all the time, every minute, every single second

不要忘记过去现在继续创造着

Don't forget the past, continue creating the present

如果真实的声音让你感觉可靠

If the real voice feels true to you

当你听到的时候说它就是你想要的

Listening to it is just what you want

两个闲不住的人一首关于你的歌儿

Some people who can't sit still, a song about you

我们不该有区别本来都差不多

We shouldn't be so different, at the start we're the same
