Ohhh… ohhh…

Nàr! Yí gè tiěpírén, jǔ zhe fǔtóu, yí dòng bú dòng!
Over there! A man made of tin, with his axe raised, not moving at all!

Nǐ zěnme huì zài zhèr?
How did you come to be here?

Yǐqián, wǒ shì yí gè kǎn mùtou de rén. Wǒ ài guo yí gè nǚhái.
Once, I was a woodman. I loved a girl.
- Tin Woodman 可是东方女巫用了魔法。我一点一点变成了铁皮人。

But the Wicked Witch of the East used her magic, and piece by piece I turned into tin.
- Tin Woodman 铁皮人没有心。我没有心，就不能爱了。
Tiěpírén méiyǒu xīn. Wǒ méiyǒu xīn, jiù bù néng ài le.
A tin man has no heart. And with no heart, I can't love anymore.

Wǒmen yào qù zhǎo wūshī Àozī. Tā yěxǔ néng gěi nǐ xīn!
We're going to find Oz the Wizard. Maybe he can give you a heart!

I'll ask for brains, you'll ask for a heart! Dorothy, let's all go together!
- Tin Woodman 好！多萝西，油放在你的篮子里吧。下雨的话，我会生锈的。
Hǎo! Duōluóxī, yóu fàng zài nǐ de lánzi lǐ ba. Xià yǔ de huà, wǒ huì shēngxiù de.
Yes! Dorothy, keep the oil in your basket. If it rains, I'll rust.
- Tin Woodman 前边都是树？我用斧头砍！
Qiánbian dōu shì shù? Wǒ yòng fǔtóu kǎn!
Trees in the way? I'll chop through with my axe!
- Dorothy 你们听……森林里有什么？
Nǐmen tīng… sēnlín lǐ yǒu shénme?
Listen… what's out there in the forest?
- Narrator 一只大狮子跳到路上，打倒了稻草人，又打倒了铁皮人。
Yì zhī dà shīzi tiào dào lù shang, dǎdǎo le Dàocǎorén, yòu dǎdǎo le Tiěpírén.
A huge lion leapt into the road, knocked the Scarecrow flat, then knocked the Tin Woodman down too.

Dorothy, danger! Run!
