脸谱

Masks

博尚镇制作脸谱的大爷
杀象，制作象脸
杀虎，制作虎脸
他一直想杀人，但他已经老朽
白白的在心里藏着一堆刀斧
		

The old geezer making masks in Boshang Town
Kills the elephant, to make the elephant mask
Kills the tiger, to make the tiger mask
He has always wanted to kill a person, but he's too old
Vainly concealing a pile of knives in his heart
