What should I do?

Both the two previous songs were about problems in relationships, with the first one being about a relationship that was broken, whereas the second one was about tears being shed because of a relationship that wasn't working. Today, we ask ourselves: what should we do about such problems? And we have yet another such problem where the singer asks himself 我该怎么做 (Wǒ gāi zěnme zuò, What should I do). «I met this sometime in Spring 2012 and translated it into English during an English lesson in May, and into French probably within the end of June», said the old intro. Welp, let's be waaay more precise.
  1. The English translation:
    1. First appears in the English notebook; more precisely, we have the first half of the chorus on 24/5/12, immediately followed by the edits to the English of this song, and then the chorus gets tweaked on 25/5, and the verse and rest of the chorus are translated; that is the en q version, where the tweaked line of the chorus is included in both forms, first the 24/5 one, then the 25/5 one;
    2. The 28/7 file has nothing about it, nor does the printout of it, or the 5/8, whereas the 18/8 finally has the complete translation, with the following different lines:
      1. «And you have already completely tired of me / We both have given tried very hard»;
      2. «After I’ve been strong who can understand me»;
      3. «Too bad I am still in love with you.»;
      4. «Breaking this thing cannot later go»;
      5. «I have followed you so long to find you’re anxious»;
      6. «Can you stop showing off or not?»;
    3. All those differences persist all the way to the 17/9/12 file, and only get fixed in the attachment to the 17/3/12 to my corrector of the time;
    Note that, during classes, I only ever translate sung/rapped parts, not spoken parts; this means that, technically, the en q version shouldn't have that introductory paragraph, but I included it anyway, since I basically don't count it for the history of this translation;
  2. As for the French translation, the mega-intro has it listed on the todo list from 12/8/12; it first appears in the 18/8/12 file, with the following differences only being fixed all the way in the 17/3/13 file:
    1. «Et t’est déjà fatigué de moi»;
    2. «Mon amour pour toi ne s’en va pas.»;
    3. «Peux-tu ne t’ mettre en évidence ?»: this, and its English analogue, were caused by the 2013 corrector's hearing of the original line as 你可不可以再需要, whereas the originals from the 18/8 file are from 你可不可不再炫耀, which I think was in the captions.
Let's see!


其实我很想知道
我们的爱是否已经不多
而且你已经彻底的厌倦了我
我们都彼此努力过
却不能回到从前的生活
为何既然你已经不爱我
就请你不要再假装关心我
因为这样会更加伤害我
让我更加难过
坚强背后有谁能懂我
我该怎么做

谁能告诉我该怎么做
离开还是留下来生活
明知道我们不会有结果
可我还是为你而执着

每次争吵过后好心痛
放开你也许是一种解脱
分手这种事情不能拖
拖得越久就会越难过

RAP:Ah 和你一起生活了那么久
我们的一切一切真的好难忘掉
Ah 爱情就是这样的奇妙
整天让人时哭时笑
又无法预料
我们的感情我并没有忘掉
其实相处久了发觉你很焦躁
而无理取闹
说什么话题都难以逗你一笑
你生气会说我很无聊
Ah 当初你说什么都比我重要
可现在什么都比我重要
真可笑很荒谬
我告诉自己快点把你忘掉
别再为你心惊肉跳
可是我还做不到
伤心难过的时候我只会泪流地笑
骗自己说我对你很重要
傻得无可救药
你 可不可以再需要
我是傻瓜被你随传随到
好想尖叫
Ah...
I actually so much want to know
If your love is already not much
And you have already been completely tired of me
We both have tried very hard
But we can’t go back to our past life
Why? Since you already don’t love me
Don’t go on pretending you care for me
Because that way you will hurt me more
Make me more sad
Who can understand me despite my trying to be strong
What do I have to do

Who cn tell me ʍt I hv to do? => … to do
To abandon all my life or you? => For to live? To leave or stay with you?
Well I know it is naught we’re going to,
Even though I am still in love with you.

Every time we quarrel I grieve so.
I may well be relieved in leaving you.
Breaking this thing cannot later go,
For delaying makes our sadness grow.

Ah For so long I’ve lived together with you
It is so hard to forget all I’ve had when with you
Ah Love indeed is such a wonder, whoo,
All day makes all cry but laugh too,
You can’t foresee, no.
I haven’t yet forgot what I’ve felt for you,
I have followed you so long to find you’re anxious
And provocate too
You say anything all can hardly get a smile out from you
You may say that I am I'm very boring too,
Ah You once said all meant muchso more than me to you
Although now all means more than me to you
Nothing means much to you
I tell myself to hurry to forget you
I won’t shake with terror for you
Thing I still can’tcannot get to
When I'm so sad I only cry I am very sad I just cry while I laugh to
I say to myself that you need me too
Cannot cure I’m dumb so
Can you stop showing ofno more show off or not?
Where you call I go: I’m stupid; I so
Want to cry out!
Ah…
I actually so much want to know
If your love is already not much
And you have already been completely tired of me
We both have tried very hard
But we can’t go back to our past life
Why? Since you already don’t love me
Don’t go on pretending you care for me
Because that way you will hurt me more
Make me more sad
Who can understand me despite my trying to be strong
What do I have to do

Who can tell me what I have to do
To live on? To leave or stay with you?
Well I know it is naught we’re going to,
It’s too bad I still insist with you.

Every time we quarrel I grieve so.
I may well be relieved in leaving you.
Breaking and such things can’t later go,
For delaying it makes our sadness grow.

Ah For so long I’ve lived together with you
It is so hard to forget all I’ve had when with you
Ah Love indeed is such a wonder, whoo,
All day makes all cry but laugh too,
You can’t foresee, no.
I haven’t yet forgot what I’ve felt for you,
I have lived with you so long to find you’re anxious
And provocate too
You say all can hardly get a smile out of you
You with anger say I’m boring too,
Ah You once said all meant much more than me to you
Although now all means more than me to you
Nothing means much to you
I tell myself to hurry to forget you
I won’t shake with terror for you
Thing I still can’t get to
When I am very sad I just shed tears while I laugh too
I tell myself I mean a lot to you
Cannot cure I’m dumb so
Can you need me again or not?
Where you call I go: I’m stupid; I so
Want to cry out!
Ah…

Ah...



J’ voudrais vraiment très bien savoir
Si nôtre amour t’est déjà peu
Et t’a déjà étée complètement fatigué de moi
On a tout deux fait des grands efforts
Mais on peut pas retourner à nôtre vie du passé
Pourquoi ? Parce que tu déjà ne m’aimes plus
Ne continue pas à faire semblant qu’il t’importe de moi
Parce qu’ainsi tu va me férir plus
Me faire plus triste
Après que j’aie été fort qui peut me comprendre ?
Quoi devrais-je faire ?

Quoi dois-je faire ? Qui peut me dire ça ?
Dois-j’aller ou vivre encore comme ça ?
Bien je sais donc que rien avoir on va,
Pitié qu’ j’insiste encore avec toi.

Après une querelle j’ suis triste chaque fois.
Peut-être que t’ laisser me soulag’ra.
Se laisser plus tard on ne peut pas :
Si on retarde la tristesse grandira.

Ah Tant longuement j’ai vécu ensemble avec toi
C’est difficile d’oublier tout c’ que j’ai eu avec toi
Ah Admirable c’est, l’amour, vraiment,
Toujours rire, pleurer te fera,
Tu n’ peux prédire pas.
Je n’oublie pas ce que j’ai senti vers toi
J’ t’ai suivie longuement pour te trouver inquiète
Et très provocante
Tu dis que tout te faire sourire ne peut donc pas
Et que tu t’ennuies aussi avec moi
Ah Tu disais que tout était plus important
Mais maint’nant tout est plus important de moi
Rien ne l’est beaucoup pas
Je me dis « Vite ! Vite ! L’oublïer tu bien dois
Ne plus trembler de peur tu dois »
Mais je n’ peux pas faire ça
Quand je suis triste je vais seul pleurer et rire ensemble
Je m’ dis que je suis important pour toi,
Moi, stupide incurable
Peux-tu avoir besoin de moi ?
Où qu’ t’appelles je vais, stupide ; et vraiment
J’ veux hurler ça !
Ah…
