Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself. But if you love and must have desires, let these be your desires:
To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by your own understanding of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.
To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving;
To rest at the noon hour and meditate love’s ecstasy;
To return home at eventide with gratitude;
And then to sleep with a payer for the beloved in your heart and a song of praise upon your lips.
爱除了实现自我别无他求。但是如果你爱而又不得不有所求,那就请期望:
将自己融化并像奔流的溪水一般向夜晚吟唱自己优美的曲调。
明了过多的温柔所带来的苦痛。
被自己对爱的理解所伤害;
并情愿快乐地悲伤。
在黎明带着轻快的心醒来并感谢又一个有家的日子;
在黄昏怀着感恩之心回家;
然后为内心所爱之人祈祷,吟唱赞美之歌,并带着祷告和歌声入眠。
