Zhuang Zhou once had a dream. He dreamt of himself turning into a butterfly, flying in the air, feeling like he was real capriccioso(活泼自由的) butterfly.
In his dream he was amused and exhilarated(振奋的) without noticing that this butterfly was only something in his dream. After a while, he woke up and found that he was still himself, not a butterfly. He felt surprised and couldn't tell whether it was he turned into a butterfly in his dream or a butterfly turned into him.
庄周做了一个梦,梦见自己变成了一只蝴蝶,飘飘而飞,俨然自己就是一只生动活泼的真蝴蝶。
他梦中觉得非常有趣,非常得意,不知道蝴蝶是庄周梦中变成的。过了一会儿,他一梦醒来,见自己仍是庄周,又不是蝴蝶,觉得十分惊奇,他实在不明白是自己在梦中变成了蝴蝶呢?还是蝴蝶在梦中变成了自己。
