情若能自控我要心何用情若能自控怎么会心痛
[qíng ruò néng zì kòng wŏ yào xīn hé yòng qíng ruò néng zì kòng zĕn me huì xīn tòng]
'If emotion can be controlled, what do I need a heart for? If emotion can be controlled, how would the heart break?' The implication is a mix of confusion and pain regarding intense emotional turmoil where the heart rules instead of reason. Perhaps after being hurt by love or strong feelings, it expresses a wish for emotions not to control oneself but then questioning what life would be without those heartfelt experiences.
