人生好比客栈
每个早晨都有新的客人
喜悦、沮丧、卑劣、一瞬间的觉悟
都是意外的访客来臨
欢迎并热情招待每一位客人!
即使他们是一群悲伤之徒
恣意破坏你的房屋,
搬空所有家具
仍然要待之以礼
因为他们可能会带来全新的喜悦
涤净你心灵
里灰黯念头,羞耻或恶念
在门口笑脸相迎
邀请他们进来
无论谁来,都要心存感激
因为每一位客人
都是由上天赐给我们的向导
This
being human is a guest house
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a
depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected
visitor.
Welcome and entertain the all!
Even if they’re a crowd of
sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture.
Still,
treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new
delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice –
meet them at the door
laughing,
and invite them in.
Be grateful for whoever comes,
because
each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
