Perhaps things and people are all different now.
可是 隨著歲月的蕩滌
But as time ripples away,
在我 一個遠方遊子的心頭
they are becoming clearer to me,
卻日漸清晰起來
a wanderer far away from home.
我所經歷的大事 也不算少了
Though I've lived through several significant events,
可都被時間磨蝕了
they were all eroded by the time.
然而這些童年的瑣事
It's these trifles in my childhood
無論是酸的 甜的 苦的 辣的
no matter the sweets or the bitters of life
卻永久 永久地刻印在我的心頭
that remain in my mind forever and ever.
每個人的童年
Isn't everyone's childhood
不都是這樣的愚騃而神聖嗎
unfailing and sublime like this?

She was so naughty!
行啦 行啦
All right. That's enough.
- 不害臊 - 飯不吃 衣服不穿的
- Won't you feel ashamed? - Without eating nor wearing clothes,
就往外跑
she ran straight outside,
急著呀 找他爸去
worried to look for her dad.
我說了多少回 都不聽
I told her many times. She never listened.

It's true. When that student was captured,
秀貞她爹媽還不知道 她姑娘已經有了
hsiu-chen's parents didn't know she was expecting.
等到顯了形兒啊
Until it became obvious,
才趕回到海淀鄉下去生的
she was hurriedly sent back to hai-tien to give birth.

打一落地兒啊
As soon as it was born,
就裹包裹包 趕天沒亮
they bundled it up and took it to chi-hua gate
就送到齊化門 城根底下
before daybreak and left it there.
唉 反正不是讓人給撿了去
Alas. Anyway, if it wasn't taken by someone,
就是叫野狗給吃了唄
then it was eaten by wild dogs.
噢
I see.
姑娘打這裡就瘋了
Did the girl become mad after that?
可不 打這裡就瘋了
Of course. She's been mad since then.

可是你還沒有見過海呢
But you haven't seen the sea yet.
誰說的 我們從老遠老遠的島上來
But yes. We came here from a faraway island.
不是要坐船過大海嗎
Didn't we need a ship to sail across the sea?

世風日下
The society is getting worse and worse.
加把鎖 又有什麼用啊
Getting a lock is helpless.
爸爸

我們這號人 講不了衛生
People like us can't afford to be sanitary.
欸

準是貪玩兒 是不是
You played too much, didn't you?

年年考第一
He's the first in class every year.
有志氣
He's ambitious.
人說了
He said
長大了 還要飄洋過海 去念書呢
he would go abroad to study when he grows up.
可就憑 我這沒出息的哥哥
But with a useless brother like me,
什麼能耐都沒有
a nobody,
哪裡供得起啊
how could he get the support?
奔窩頭
Even though we only eat corn bread,
我們家 常常吃了上頓 沒下頓
we often don't know where to get the next meal.
欸 你們家吃窩頭嗎
Does your family eat corn bread?
你們家不吃窩頭
Your family won't eat that thing.

我走到這一步 也是沒辦法
I have no choice but to do such things.
你明白嗎
Can you understand?
我媽 不知道我幹這一路
My ma doesn't know what I'm doing.
我弟弟也不知道
Neither does my brother,
拿我當個好哥哥
seeing me as a good brother.
可不是嗎
That's right somehow.
我供我弟弟念書
I support him in his schooling,
一心想讓他成個像樣的人

Have you ever seen the sea?
我們有一課書
We learned a lesson,
叫 《我們看海去》
called let's go to see the sea.
但我沒見過海
But I haven't seen the sea.
我分不清 海跟天
I can't tell the difference between the sea and the sky.
我也分不清 好人跟壞人
Neither can I tell that between good man and bad man.
對
Yeah.
海跟天 好人跟壞人
Sea and sky. Good man and bad man.
小妹妹
Little girl,
將來總有一天 你會分得清的

你還老招他們
But you still associate with them.
怪嚇人的
It's so scary.
怕什麼呀
What are you afraid of?
哎呀 別說左鄰右舍的眼雜
Well, the neighbors may pay attention,
就是自己家的孩子 傭人
and it's not good for our own children
聽見看見了 也不好
and servants to see them frequently.
你們女人家 懂什麼呀
What do you women know?
