The Guest-House
-詩人魯米 Rumi
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.
非常棒的一首詩，分享給親愛的妳
摘自--- 詩人魯米 客棧 Rumi, The Guest House
做人就像一間客棧
當你張開雙眼 迎接一日的晨曦
便有新的旅客到來
喜悅、沮喪與卑鄙
或是某些瞬間的覺醒
這些就像意料之外的訪客
請歡迎並招待每一位到來的賓客
即使他們是令人悲傷的旅人
粗暴掃蕩你的客房
破壞家具
仍要善待他們
因為他也有可能為你除舊布新
帶來新的喜悅(收穫)
不好的念頭、 羞耻和怨懟
也請你在門口笑臉迎接他們
無論是誰的到來
都要心存感激
因為每一位都是
由世外派來
指引你的嚮導
