The rest of me
天问
The rest of me is categorized as others
我之外的人和物被归为“其他”
Including "It", "him" and "her", they're me's peers
包括“它”、“他”和“她”,“我”的对等
The philosophers have said it rather smart
哲学家们对此给出相当聪明的说法
That all "it", "him" and "her" are similar to "me''s physical traits
所有的“它”、“他”和“她”物性与“我”类同
But differ a lot in interests and ideas:
但兴趣和想法差别很大
The democratic politicians insisted that they are politically equal
民主政客坚持认为“他们”政治平等
And the human populationist believed: they are alive as a whole
...
人类群体学家确信“他们”休憩与共
But something has long confused "me" is that
Why so many of "it", "him" and "her" that "me" never knew
(in any sense, such as meeting in person
Or any relationships could possibly be existing)
遗憾的是为啥如此多的它、他和她我却从来不知道
(从任何意义上,比如谋面,或存在任何可能的关系)
I personally reckon that "me" is a unique soul
我私下核计“我”应该是一个独特的魂灵
And "it", "him" and "her" are duplicates as "me"'s shadows
而“它”、“他”和“她”则是“我”复制出的身影
Because of the blood in me could never possibly be immortal
因为“我”的血脉不能永远不朽
Once "me" is gone, "it" or "him" or "her" will come to continue
当“我”走了,“它”、“他”或“她”将接着续后
