Song: 人啊人 [Homo Sapiens] (Jan4 Aa3 Jan4)

人啊人

一个人
还是　一片云
或者突然聚乌云
会记得
别记得

一个人
还是　一抹尘
或者自然没灰尘
有几多是意识　是肉身

很谦卑的人
很矜夸的人
于出生一刹　皱眉头　掉眼泪
而最后碰着
几多种好人
几多种丑人
从万世　望众生
谁明白过所有人啊人
信人
并骗人
一个人

还是　一个神
什么动人为什么乱神
有太多微细的　藏在心

很污糟的人
很清高的人
于出生一刹　皱眉头　掉眼泪
而最后碰着
几多种超人
几多种小人
从万世　望众生
谁明白过所有人啊人
废人
并救人

很抑郁的人
很风光的人
于出生一刹　皱眉头　掉眼泪
而最后碰着
几多种真人
几多种假人
从万世　望众生
谁明白过所有人啊人
爱人
并杀人

一个人
谁是　一个人

You, O Man!

A man
Or a cloud?
Dark clouds might gather suddenly
You will remember
Don’t you remember

A man
Or a layer of dust?
The dust might go on its own
How much of it comes from the mind? From the flesh?

A humble man
A boastful man
At birth, they both frown and shed tears
But in the end
How many kind souls will they each meet?
How many ugly souls will they each meet?
Look at the world from beyond!
You, O Man! Who has ever understood every man?
Trusted them?
And deceived them?
Such is a man

Or a god?
A charm that somehow baffles even gods
With so many intricacies deep down

A filthy person
A virtuous person
At birth, they both frown and shed tears
But in the end
How many saints will they each meet?
How many scoundrels will they each meet?
Look at the world from beyond!
You, O Man! Who has ever understood every man?
Every loser?
And saved them?

A depressed man
A well-off man
At birth, they both frown and shed tears
But in the end
How many honest men will they each meet?
How many insincere men will they each meet?
Look at the world from beyond!
You, O Man! Who has ever understood every man?
Loved them?
And killed them?

A man
Is there truly a lone man?
