　　I'd like to share with you a little bit of me playing my life. 我想与你们分享一些我的演奏人生。

　　I might look successful and happy being in front of you today, 我今天在大家面前可能看起来很成功，很快乐，

　　but I once suffered from severe depression and was in total despair. 但我曾得过严重的抑郁症，陷入彻底的绝望。

　　The violin, which meant everything to me, became a grave burden on me. 小提琴，是我的人生，成为了我沉重的负担。

　　Although many people tried to comfort and encourage me, their words sounded like meaningless noise. 虽然很多人试图安慰我、鼓励我，他们的话却像是毫无意义的噪音。

　　When I was just about to give everything up after years of suffering, 当我忍受不了多年的痛苦，正准备放弃这一切时，

　　I started to rediscover the true power of music.  我重新发现了音乐的真正力量。

　　In the midst¹ of hardship, it was the music that gave me -- that restored my soul. 在这一段艰苦的日子里，音乐唤醒了并治愈了我的灵魂。

　　The comfort the music gave me was just indescribable, 音乐带给我的安慰是难以形容的，

　　and it was a real eye-opening experience for me too,  它打开了我的眼界，

　　and it totally changed my perspective on life  彻底改变了我对生活的看法

　　and set me free from the pressure of becoming a successful violinist. 把我从压力中释放出来，使我成为一名成功的小提琴手。

　　Do you feel like you are all alone?  你感到孤单吗？

　　I hope that this piece will touch and heal your heart, as it did for me. 我希望这首曲子会感动，并且治愈你的心，就如它为我做的那样。
