我最親愛的教友
My dearest parish,
初學者和獨行者們…
first-timers, and fellow mavericks ...
你們知道嗎 自從我能拿起相機以來
did you know, ever since I could hold a camera,
我就想成爲一名電影制♥作♥人

結果被現場抓包了
And was caught.
那種羞恥感讓我無法忍♥受
The shame was unbearable.
但有時候 你是真沒錢
And, well, sometimes you just don't have the money.
這讓我想起了我的新電影導師
This reminds me of a revelation
他教會了我一個道理
my new film mentor taught me:
“你的藝術眼光會證明”
how your artistic vision justifies
“你所有的犧牲和可能的後果都是值得的”
any supposed consequences and sacrifices.
偉大的電影導演沃納·赫爾佐格總結道
It's summed up by that great film director, Werner Herzog:
“如果你需要呼吸空氣而你又被鎖在房♥間裏”
"If you need air to breathe, and you are locked in a room,
“你必須用鑿子和錘子來打破一堵牆”
"you have to take a chisel and hammer and break down a wall.
“這是你的絕對權利”
"It is your absolute right."
掙扎也是我絕對的權利
And it's my absolute right to hustle.
我只是需要一個導師來指導我拍電影
I just needed a mentor, a guide, to help make my movie,

Mama warned me against the abuse,

我的藍天消失了
And my blue skies vanished.
被一陣熟悉的風暴一卷而空
Brushed out by the strokes of a familiar storm.

My mama always said you need a guide
你就需要一個嚮導
to get anywhere of importance.
我的腦子整天都在嗡嗡響 思考着答案
My mind droned until the end of days
就像初夏的知了
for a solution, like them cicadas in early summer.
