When we were the Sick Man of Asia, we were called the Yellow Peril. 当我们是东亚病夫时，我们被说成是黄祸；

When we were falling apart, you marched in your troops and wanted your fair share. 当我们风雨飘摇时，你们铁蹄入侵要求机会均等； 

When we tried to put the broken pieces back together again, Free Tibet, you screamed. It was an invasion! 当我们整合破碎山河时，你们却叫嚣“给西藏自由”。 

When tried communism, you hated us for being communist. 当我们推行马列救国时，你们痛恨我们信仰共产主义； 

When we embrace capitalism, you hate us for being capitalist. 当我们实行市场经济时，你们又嫉妒我们有了资本。 

When we have a billion people, you said we were destroying the planet. 当我们的人口超过十亿时，你们说我们摧毁地球； 

When we tried limiting our numbers, you said we abused human rights. 当我们限制人口增长时，你们又说我们践踏人权。 

When we were poor, you thought we were dogs. 当我们一贫如洗时，你们视我们低贱如狗；

When we were silent, you said you wanted us to have free speech. 当我们保持沉默时，你们说我们没有言论自由； 

When we are silent no more, you say we are brainwashed-xenophobes. 当我们敢于发声时，又被说成是洗过脑的暴民。 

"Why do you hate us so much?" we asked. 我们不禁要问：“为什么你们这样憎恨我们？” 

"No," you answered, "we don't hate you." 你们回答说：“不，我们不恨你们。” 

"We don't hate you either, but, do you understand us?" “我们也不恨你们，只是，你们了解我们吗？” 

"Of course we do," you said, "We have AFP, CNN and BBC's ..." “当然了解，我们消息多的是，有法新社、美国有线新闻网、还有英国广播公司……” 

What do you really want from us? 你们究竟要我们怎样生存？ 

Think hard first, then answer, Because you only get so many chances. 回答之前请仔细想一想，因为你们的机会是有限的。 

Enough is enough, enough hypocrisy for this one world. 够了，这个世界已经容不下太多的伪善。 

We want one world, one dream, and peace on earth. 我们要的是同一个世界，同一个梦想，太平盛世。 

This big blue earth is big enough for all of us. 这个辽阔的蓝色地球，容得下你们，也容得下我们
