Translation of the song 难渡 artist Děng shénme jūn
难渡
Hard to Help
那隔壁的戏子是为情所伤
The actor next door is hurt by love
一念牵肠 一念苦短
Feeling anxious in one thought and sighing in the next
此生多慌张
How flustered is this life?
那隔壁的浪子是为情所困
The loafer next door is trapped by love
身在世上 人在何方
Losing their place in the world
尘世彷徨
Hesitating about which way to go
*我知道爱也罢 恨也罢 一切随他
*I know whether love or hate, everything is up to him
于是忘也罢 苦也罢 都是空牵挂
Thus, whether forget about it or suffer from it, all are empty worries
我知道爱也罢 苦也罢 一切随他
I know whether love or suffering, everything is up to him
于是忘断的 不该的 在菩提树下
Thus, the forgotten ones shouldn’t be under the Bodhi tree
难渡的人在人间受苦 沧海为霜
People who are hard to help will keep suffering in the world, till seas turn to frost
那隔壁的戏子是为情所伤
The actor next door is hurt by love
自是不忘 终是念想
If he doesn’t forget it, his life will be full of yearning
情难思量
Such a love is hard to imagine
那隔壁的浪子是为情所困
The loafer next door is trapped by love
相见无望 醉过虚妄
He is drunk as seeing no hope, all in vain
不解心殇
Incomprehensible
Repeat*
Repeat*
我知道爱也罢 恨也罢 一切随他
I know whether love or hate, everything is up to him
于是忘也罢 苦也罢 难诉尽造化
Thus, whether forget about it or suffer from it, even the creator can hardly relate
我知道爱也罢 苦也罢 一切随他
I know whether love or suffering, everything is up to him
可是望断的 走散的 最难是放下
But it’s the hardest for those, who are hopeless and lost to let go
难渡的人 在人间受苦 天理昭彰
People who are hard to help will keep suffering in the world, manifested by natural law
难渡的人在人间受苦 沧海为霜
People who are hard to help will keep suffering in the world, till seas turn to frost
