你以前有这个伤疤吗？

Did you have this scar before?

youdao

当较量开始的时候——如果你的手臂上有他的爱的伤疤，你应该非常、非常感激。

That's when the tug-of-war begins—and if you have the scars of his love on your arms, be very, very grateful.

youdao

你看，每一道伤疤都是我付出的爱。

You see, each scar shows where I have given my love.

youdao

Reopen no old wounds. Be as if you had never returned and looked in to me to see my laboring humilities, my few scrubbed pennies, hungry to grab, quick to deprive, sullen, unloved, mean-minded son of my flesh. Son! Son!"

不要再来碰我的伤疤，像你从前没有回来看过我似的,来看我的辛苦和谦卑，看我被掏得一干二净的钱袋，饿了抢，急了打，我亲生的没有感情，冷酷自私的儿子！“
