Binti 史瓦希里語的女孩的意思

程度副詞

Girl a word that I didn't know until just a couple weeks ago

一個直到幾個禮拜前我才知道的單字

There are so many things that we don't understand yet still in this life we try to make a stand

有太多我們無法理解的事，然而在這人生中我們還是試著想要為了某個理念奮戰

For whatever we believe is right we choose our battles. We pick our fights

為了那些我們相信是正確的而戰，我們選擇我們的戰場和陣地

But within this evanescent life for what should we choose to justify so that we can sleep with a clear conscience late at night?

但是在這稍縱即逝的人生中，我們究竟該試著證明些什麼，夜深人靜的時候才得以入眠呢？

A wise person once told me and this goes out to all the boys and girls equally

有一位智者曾告訴我，這席話適用於所有的男生女生們

He who lives for family is a good son. She who lives for country is a loyal one

為了家庭而活的人是孝子；為了國家而活的人是忠臣

yet he or she who lives for the world is a saint

然而，為了世界而活的人則是聖人

Now I'm not saying that I'm trying to be a saint

I'm not even close, and I don't think I'll ever be. But at least I can do this to help raise awareness and improve humanity

我八字沒一撇，我也覺得我永遠不會是，但至少我可以做這件事來喚起意識並幫助提升人性

你可知道在非洲撒哈拉沙漠以南，每十個學齡女童中就有一位在經期時輟學

sub-saharan Africa one out of ten school girls miss school during their menstrual cycle, that's 20% of school days in a given year

Moreover some girls just drop out of school altogether out of shame, out of stigma, out of fear

更甚者，有些女孩從此不再去學校，因為羞恥感、恥辱感、擔心害怕

And the reason behind this is unimaginably true, it's merely because they can't afford to buy sanitary products like how we did

而這背後的原因是如此無法想像地真實，僅僅是因為他們沒有辦法像我們一樣有錢購買衛生用品

And it's hard to imagine young girls sexually exploited to getting money from pads while in fact

更無法想像的是年輕的女孩子們遭到性剝削，只為了賺錢買衛生護墊

4.5% of girls and Kenyan slums actually go through that

然而事實是 居住在肯亞貧民窟4.5%的女孩卻實際經歷這些

No single person on this earth should ever go through that

這地球上不該有任何人經歷這種事

還有 非洲60-80%的勞動力來自於女性

Sixty to eighty percent of working labor comes from woman, when a young girl in Africa drops out of school and misses out on knowledge

所以當一位年輕女孩輟學而錯失學習知識

The impact goes beyond the individual, affects the family, affects a generation without the education

那影響超乎個人，影響到家庭、影響到一個世代

The day I got this email it got me thinking and I started reflecting telling myself maybe I should stop neglecting

that out there still there are people in need

我收到這封email的那天，我開始思考、我開始反思，告訴我自己或許我應該停止漠視

And we're not just talking about feminine products. It's about the knowledge, information

在外面的世界還有許多需要幫助的人

sanitation facilities, clean water, menstrual hygiene education, and how to help girls and women boost their self-esteem

我們講的不只是女性用品，是關乎知識、資訊、

So, maybe just maybe out of our happiness bubbles where we fret over our daily little troubles

衛生設施、乾淨水源、生理期衛生教育，以及如何幫助女生、女性們提升自信

We can give a helping hand and help people stand on their own two feet

所以或許在我們每天煩惱一些日常瑣事的幸福小泡泡外頭，

Cuz the last time I checked we're all human. So let's help bring back the humanity. Yes, you and me. That's all we need

我們能夠伸出援手、幫助人們靠自己站立

至少我上次確認.. 我確定我們都是「人」，所以我們一起來幫忙把人性找回來 ，沒錯！就是你和我！只需要這麼多
