The original translation of Guan Hanqing's The Injustice of Dou E.

Original text:

Being in the palace, it is good to be correct: breaking the king's law for no reason, not being wary of being punished by the constitution, crying loudly. In a blink of an eye, the wandering soul went to the Rosen Hall first, so why not complain about heaven and earth!

Rolling hydrangea: sooner or later, the sun and the moon will hang, and ghosts and gods will hold the right to life and death. How can Yan Yuan, the thief's foot, be born when heaven and earth are only separated from each other? Good people live a long life in poverty, while evil people enjoy a long life in wealth. Heaven and earth, too, are afraid of bullying, so it is natural for calcium dobesilate capsules to come! Land, you are good or bad! God, you are both smart and stupid! Alas, only two tears fell.

If you are a scholar, you will be tilted to the right by the left side of my cangue button, and I will be pulled. My Dou E has something to say to my brother. Go to the front street with a grudge and die in the back street for no reason. Don't delay.

Boring order: self-pity, no relatives, and finally submit to humiliation and complain. I haven't seen my dad for more than ten years. I'm afraid my mother-in-law will see me in the front street. Kill him for nothing, kill him for nothing. Tell your brother that it's good to stay calm in a crisis and it's convenient to walk with people.

Happiness 3: Miss Dou E's gourd is a crime, Miss Dou E's head is incomplete, and Miss Dou E's past career; Mother-in-law, you only look at Master Dou E's shameless face.

Bao: I miss serving my mother-in-law in recent years. When the season comes, I will pour a bowl of cold salad. You go there and burn some paper money on the remains of the criminal law. You should only recommend your dead children. Mother-in-law, don't cry, don't worry, don't be angry again. This is all because when I was Dou E, I had no time or luck, and I was not sure whether it was dark or not.

Playing with the children: It was not me, Dou E, who made such a headless wish. What a grievance. If there are not some spiritual saints handed down from generation to generation, it may not be clear. I don't want half a star's blood and red dust, all of which are just gun elements hanging on the eight-foot flag. When he looked around, he saw that this was our magnificent garden and watched the emperor crow.

Ersha: You said it was hot in summer, not that snowy day. Haven't heard of great injustice for Zou Yan? If there is a cavity of resentment, I must feel that six pieces of ice roll like cotton, avoiding my body; What kind of white car do you want to destroy this ancient world?

One evil spirit: your way is unpredictable, and people have no pity. I wonder if god will obey people's wishes. Why haven't you seen rain for three years? Only for the filial piety of Donghai. Now it's your turn to go to Yangshan County. It's all because officials don't care about the doctrine, leaving the people speechless.

Javert: The clouds are cloudy for me, and the hate platform is spinning for me. Three wishes are made clear. Meanwhile, I showed you a dead ghost.

Translation:

Being in the palace, being honest: I said that I had violated the king's law for no reason, but I didn't expect to be punished, shouting "wrong" was earth-shattering. In an instant, my wandering soul will arrive at Yamaraja Temple. Why don't I complain deeply about heaven and earth?

Rolling hydrangea: The sun and the moon are high in the sky from morning till night, and ghosts and gods dominate the power of life and death on earth. Heaven and earth, you should only distinguish between innocence and filth. How can you confuse stealing feet with Yan Yuan? Those who do good suffer from poverty and short life, while those who do evil enjoy wealth and longevity. Heaven and earth, you are so afraid of hard work and bullying, so you just follow the trend! Earth, for better or worse, you are nothing! God, you misjudged the good guys and the bad guys for nothing! Alas, only my eyes are full of tears.

If the scholar: The heavy shackles twisted me, and people carried me back and forth all the way. I, Dou E, have something to say to my brother. I hate walking in the front street, but there is nothing wrong with me dying in the back street. Please don't refuse to say it's a long way.

Boring order: It's a pity that I am alone and have no relatives and family. In the end, I only sigh and complain in vain. I haven't seen my father for more than ten years. I'm afraid my mother-in-law will see me walking in the street. That's not to make her angry for nothing, that's not to make her angry for nothing! Please, brother, let people pee before they die.

Happiness 3: Pity my Dou E, who was sentenced to death by the government in a daze, pity my Dou E's mutilated body, and pity my Dou E's housework for many years, because I have no parents since I was a child.

Bao: I remember serving my mother-in-law for so many years. When I meet an anniversary, please bring a bowl of cold rice to show my respect. You burn some paper money in front of the grave where my bones are buried, as a memorial to your dead son. Grandma, don't cry, don't worry, don't be angry. This is all because my Dou E was born at the wrong time and had bad luck. She was confused, wronged and wronged.

Playing with the children: It wasn't me, Dou E, who made such a stupid oath. It's really my grievance. It would not be obvious if there were not those spiritual saints circulating in the world. Goodbye, sky. I don't want any blood to spill on the ground, so all the blood will spill on the white practice hanging on the eight-foot flag gun. Let the villagers around him see that I am as sad as Yan Honghuabi and Wang Dijuan.

Ersha: You think it's hot this summer, not that snowy day. Haven't you heard that the big grievance is because of Zou Yan? If there is really a cavity of resentment erupting like a flame, it will definitely touch the sky with goose feathers and snow, so as not to expose my bones in the wild; What kind of white car do you want to send to the wilderness for funeral?

One evil spirit: you think you can't count on heaven, and people's hearts are not worthy of pity. You don't know that God will obey people's wishes. Why haven't we seen a drop of rain for three years? Just because a filial wife in Donghai was wronged. It's your turn to go to Shanyang County today. It's all because the officials have no intention to do justice, which makes the people speechless.

Javert: The clouds in the sky are cloudy to me, and they were scraped by me. I made three vows public. Only in this way can you prove that your Dou E died unjustly.

This article is taken from Dou Eyuan written by Guan Hanqing in Yuan Dynasty.

Extended data writing background:

Dou Eyuan is a drama created by Guan Hanqing, a dramatist in Yuan Dynasty, and it was written in the tenth year of Wanli in Ming Dynasty (1582).

The whole play is 60% off, and it is about a weak widow, Dou E, who was framed by hooligans, beaten by unconscious officials, forced to confess, became a murderer and was sentenced to beheading. Before his execution, Dou E was filled with grief and indignation, and made three vows: blood spilled everywhere, snow fell in June, and there was no drought for three years. Sure enough, Dou E's injustice touched the earth, and the three vows were realized one by one.

The play shows the tragic situation that the lower class people are trampled on and have nowhere to complain, accuses corrupt officials of ignoring the dark reality of human life, vividly depicts the female image of Dou E, and embodies Guan Hanqing's language style full of human feelings and true colors.

In the Yuan Dynasty, some Mongolian ministers colluded with local officials to take bribes and pervert the law in order to meet the extravagant life and military needs of Mongolian nobles. Under the cruel class oppression and national oppression, the working people of all ethnic groups live a miserable life, especially the discriminated Han people and southerners, and there are countless unjust cases.

Guan Hanqing is one of some literati with a sense of justice who are dissatisfied with the dark rule of the government and expose the evil of officialdom and social injustice in the form of zaju. He wrote what he saw and heard and the tragic experience of the people into his play "Earthshaking Sin and Injustice".

"Feeling the Earth Moves, Dou E is Uneven" is a sign of the maturity of China's ancient tragedy and a model of China's ancient tragedy. Dou E's life experience fully reflected the darkness of society at that time and people's general misfortune, especially women's misfortune.

In Dou E's short life, the blow of losing her mother and husband, the poison of usury, the oppression of local ruffians and corrupt officials, all kinds of misfortunes and disasters swallowed up her youth and life, interwoven into an "earth-shattering" and extremely tragic tragedy. If we make an in-depth investigation, we will find that Yuan's tragedy in The Ground Shakes has a dual structure.
