A Morning Wish
清晨许个愿
The sun is just rising on the morning of anotherday. What can I
wish that this day may bring me?Nothing that shall make the world
or others poorer,nothing at the expense of other men; but just
those fewthings which in their coming do not stop with me buttouch
me rather, as they pass and gather strength.
I wish that this day could bring me a few friends,who understand
me, and yet remain my friends; I alsowish that this day could bring
me a job to do whichhas real value.
I wish that this day could bring me a mindunafraid to travel, even
though the trail be notblazed, and I wish that this day could bring
me anunderstanding heart.
I wish that this day could bring me a sight ofthe eternal hills,
and the blue sea stretching to thehorizon, and of something
beautiful which the handsof men have made.
I wish that this day could bring me a sense ofhumor, and the power
to laugh, and a little leisurewith nothing to do.
And I crave for a few moments of quiet, silentmeditation on the
morning of this day.
at the expense of 以……为代价
eternal adj. 永恒的
horizon n. 地平线
meditation n. 沉思
新的一天太阳又冉冉升起。我期许这一天带给我什么呢?不是令世界或他人更贫穷的东西,不是以牺牲他人为代价得来的东西,而是那些罕有的,在它们传递和聚集力量的过程中触动我、却不仅止于我的东西。
我希望这一天能够带给我一些朋友,他们了解我,并能与我友谊长存;我也希望这一天能够给我带来一份真正有价值的工作。
我希望这一天能够带给我无畏远行的胸怀,即使旅途没那么精彩;我还希望这一天能够带给我善解人意的心。
我希望这一天能让我看到永恒的山冈,看到水天相接的蔚蓝海洋,看到人类的双手造就的美丽事物。
我希望这一天能够带给我幽默感、笑的力量和无所事事的片刻悠闲。
我渴望在这一天的早上有片刻安静的沉思静想。
