This is a Japanese proverb, and it would be greatly appreciated if someone could tell me how to translate it into English. Thank you.

You're (He's/She's) pretty bold for a shy person.

There's not a concise proverb that matches this in English, but the meaning is as written above (subject changes depending on whom you're refering to). The word "pretty" is optional, but it sounds more natural with it.
