К нам относятся будто к птицам в клетке; нам вырвали перья из крыльев, чтобы мы пели для них, но никогда не могли улететь. — В бессильной ярости Хань Фей-цы глотал слезы.
They've treated us like caged birds; they've pulled our primary wing feathers so we'll sing for them but never fly away.” Father was weeping now, weeping in rage.
