How sure are you of the characters? Chinese tends to be fairly straightforward in terms of grammar and Google is getting completely the wrong meaning for some of the characters as far as I can tell. I'm not the biggest expert, but for something like this it shouldn't be hard to translate, from what I understand Chinese sayings tend to be a lot more straightforward than English ones are.

If it's important enough to you, I could just ask one of the local Chinese folks to answer the question it's not like there's a shortage of them around here.

Hi, I'm a native Chinese speaker, but the Chinese phrase doesn't make a lot of sense for me… are you sure you haven't made a mistake typing it?

Here's my translation

望二眼 和二口Look at the two eyes and the two mouths

笑二下儿 Smile twice

等二会儿Wait for two moments

两眼二闭 Close your eyes

双手二掌Clap your hands twice

单脚二跳 Jump on one foot twice
