一生何求 One Life's Wish - by 陳百強 Danny Chan - English Translation

This iconic song by 陳百強 Danny Chan is called 一生何求 One Life's Wish . The Chinese lyrics are some times very abstract, which means it could be interpreted in various ways even by Chinese speakers. When translating to English, there are parts where I tried to be as literal as possible without sounding confusing. I also tried to make the English lyrics rhyme or "flow" better if read out loud. This song is the main soundtrack to the popular 80s Hong Kong Drama 義不容情 Looking Back In Anger (although the literal translation should be Righteousness Shows No Mercy). I took some screenshots from the show to accompany this song. The show is about two brothers who were adopted after their parents died prematurely. Prior to the mom's death, the older brother (played by 黃日華 Felix Wong) made a life promise to take care of his younger brother (played by 溫兆倫 Deric Wan). But the older brother's naivete, and the younger brother's ruthless ambition ends up destroying the lives of everyone they care about. (For the western audience, it's analogous to a Macbeth play, or an Obiwan and Anakin storyline). #dannychan
