夜黑梦醒半梦半醒
[yè hēi mèng xĭng bàn mèng bàn xĭng]
'Half-awake in Dreams During a Pitch-black Night' evokes a state of confusion or semi-conscious awareness while navigating dreamland and reality in darkness. Emphasizes an in-between state of being—between sleeping and waking up—and may also imply difficulty discerning what’s imagined from actual occurrences.
