翻译歌词 / Song translations #1

求救讯号 / I’m Not OK - VH (Vast & Hazy)

(song title literally translates to “distress signal” or “S.O.S.”)

小小的那个我 不太懂诉说

My younger self, didn’t really know how to say it

老躲在泡泡中 静静看世界日升花落

Always hiding in the bubbles, quietly watching the world rise and fall

想找个柔软的地方栖留

Wanting to find a soft place to stay

海洋 云朵 或整个宇宙

The ocean, the clouds, or the entire cosmos

噩梦又来过 害怕梗在喉头

The nightmare comes again, fear stuck in my throat

谁来接住我 否则我将无止尽坠落

Will someone catch me, or will I fall endlessly?

所有景象中 都在寻求

In all of my sights, I’ve been looking for it

渴望的温暖 在谁的怀中

The love I want, whose arms will I find it in?

拥抱我 告诉我 我没有错

Hug me, tell me I’m not wrong

我值得占有 你的爱 你的痛

I deserve it, your love, your pain

放开我 让我想笑就笑 想哭就哭个够

Let go of me, if I laugh let me laugh, if I cry let me cry

请你爱我

Please love me

拥抱我 告诉我 我没有错

Hug me, tell me I’m not wrong

我值得占有 你的爱 你的痛

I deserve it, your love, your pain

放开我 让我想笑就笑 想哭就哭个够

Let go of me, if I laugh let me laugh, if I cry let me cry

我会等候

I will wait

[notxiaolan]

[notxiaolan]

the fun light maybe borderline romantic(?) music they’re playing here… what if enemies to lovers yuri was real…

[notxiaolan]

yeah！

[notxiaolan]

Why was the music and tension during this scene actually so good like fuck… their alliance has to end here…

[notxiaolan]

他的手在她的背上保护她的名牌 I’M SICK!!!!!

[notxiaolan]

omfg control it bro

[notxiaolan]

beginning to understand why i was the way that i was when i was younger bc they definitely incorporate and maintain very strong heterosexual gender roles here and also the girls being weaker and the idea of the men having to battle for their affection is definitely their romantic vision (and was mine to an extent… that particular power imbalance is Something)

although they subvert this a bit by reversing the roles in the third round

[notxiaolan]

also love these two （李晨和谢依霖）a lot, they’re clearly good friends who are just in it to win it

[notxiaolan]

This was sick and twisted (i enjoyed it deeply)

[notxiaolan]

feeling very rps about them rn. glad to know other ppl agree

[notxiaolan]

and so it begins…

[notxiaolan]

and so it begins…

世界是个草台班子

(Alternative title: how to be pessimistic in Chinese)

草台班子 (cǎotái bānzi) : a small, poorly-equipped travelling theatrical troupe giving shows in villages and small towns

From my understanding, one would mostly use this whenever things cannot be explained by rationality.

And while researching about it I found this post from 小红书, by AAA催促学习王师傅, which I think captures pretty well the mood if this expression haha.

I translated keywords for the first part, so that i can have context for understanding the end of the post.

The hashtags are the best part imo, especially the #emo 😂

擺爛 / 摆烂 (bǎilàn): to stop striving (esp. when one knows one cannot succeed); to let it all go to hell

焦慮 / 焦虑 (jiāolǜ): anxious

內卷 (nèijuǎn): to become more of a rat race
