It doesn't interest me what you do for a living.

I want to know what you ache for,

and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing.

It doesn't interest me how old you are.

I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool

for love

for your dream

for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn't interest me what planets are squaring your moon...

I want to know if you are touched the center of your own sorrow

if you have been opened by life's betrayals

or have become shriveled and closed

from fear of further pain.

I want to know if you can sit with pain

mine or your own

without moving to hide it

or fade it

or fix it.

I want to know if you can be with joy

mine or your own

if you can dance with wildness

and let the ecstasy fill you to  the tips of your fingers and toew

without cautioning us

to be careful

to be realistic

to remember the limitations of being human.

It doesn't interest me if the story you are telling me

is true.

I want to know if you can

disappoint another

to be true to yourself.

If you can bear the accusation of betrayal

and not betray your own soul.

If you can be faithless

and therefore trustworthy.

I want to know if you can see Beauty

even when it is not pretty

every day.

And if you can source your own life

from its presence.

It doesn't interest me where or what or with whom

you have studied.

I want to know what sustains you

from the inside

when all else falls away.

I want to know if you can be alone

with yourself

and if you truly like the company you keep

in the empty moments.

我不在乎你以何为生。

我想知道的是，你为何而活，

还有你是否敢憧憬实现心底的渴望。

我不在乎你的岁数年龄。

我想知道的是，你会否

为了爱，

为了梦想，

为了体验生命的奇遇

而冒险让自己看起来像个傻瓜。

我不在乎影响着你的运程的是什么行星。

我想知道的是，你曾否直面内心的哀伤，

曾否因生活的背叛而变得宽宏豁达，

又或是因怕再次被伤害

而变得怯懦畏缩。

我想知道的是，你是否可以承受痛楚，

无论是我的，还是你的，

你会去掩饰隐藏，

或是忘却，

还是勇敢面对。

我想知道的是，你是否可以享受快乐，

无论是我的，还是你的，

是否能够狂野地起舞，

让忘我之境充斥你的每个指尖和脚趾

而无需提醒我们

要谨慎，

要现实，

要牢记人类自身的局限性。

我不在乎你告诉我的故事

是否真实。

我想要知道，你是否能

为了真诚对待自己的心

而不怕令别人失望。

你是否能承受背叛的指责

而不出卖自己的灵魂。

你是否会离经叛道

从而变得值得信赖。

我想要知道，即使在并不完美的日子里

你是否仍能每天感受到美好，

能否从中

找到你生活的源泉。

我不在乎你在何地与何人学习过何事。

我想要知道，当一切都事与愿违时

是什么在内心

支撑着你。

我想要知道，你能否独处，

又是否真正享受在孤寂时分

与己为伴。
