吉檀迦利 第三十六章

孙祎卓

This is my prayer to thee, my lord---strike, strike at the root of penury in my heart.

Give me the strength lightly to bear my joys and sorrows.

Give me the strength to make my love fruitful in service.

Give me the strength never to disown the poor or bend my knees before insolent might.

Give me the strength to raise my mind high above daily trifles.

And give me the strength to surrender my strength to thy will with love.

这是我对你的祈求，我的主――请你铲除，铲除我心里贫乏的根源．

赐给我力量使我能轻闲地承受欢乐与忧伤．

赐给我力量使我的爱在服务中得到果实．

赐给我力量使我永不抛弃穷人也永不向淫威屈膝．

赐给我力量使我的心灵超越于日常琐事之上．

再赐给我力量使我满怀爱意地把我的力量服从你意志的指挥．
