Consejo(original) |
Bebe el agua que brota de tu propia fuente |
Y no busques saciarte en otra corriente |
Que solo traerá tristeza a tu corazón; |
No codicies la plata ni la tierra ajena |
Y no tientes al lobo cuando hay luna llena |
Porque él no tendrá compasión de ti; |
Nunca culpes al cielo de tu situación |
Ni pretendas ser otro en tu imaginación |
Sé más sabio y acepta el molde de tu condición; |
Y no entierres la mina que se te entregó |
Aprovecha los días que tu Dios te dio |
Y celebra a cada amanecer del Sol |
No edifiques tu casa sin antes pararte a pensar |
Si en tu mano tienes suficiente para comenzar |
Y llegar hasta el final; |
No provoques la lucha contra tu enemigo |
Si no has calculado quién está contigo |
Y cuantos vendrán a combatirte a ti; |
Nunca frunzas el ceño para perdonar |
Y no tires la piedra en primer lugar |
Ni desvíes jamás la vista por decir la verdad; |
Prueba a ser más sencillo, mira alrededor |
Agradece la lluvia, planta alguna flor |
Y pellízcate al sentir la luz del sol |
Y si llegas a tropezar en tu camino |
No escondas la cara, aunque hayas caído |
Tendrás que aprender, para recomenzar; |
Que es mejor ser honesto y empezar de cero |
Que urdir un atajo por llegar primero |
Y a Dios no podrás engañarle jamás; |
Y si buscas primero el Reino de los Cielos |
Verás añadidos todos tus deseos |
Y aún en la noche oscura de tu corazón |
Brillarás como el oro puro de verdad |
Como el águila en vuelo te remontarás |
Volverás a ver brillar la luz del sol |
(translation) |
Drink the water that flows from your own source |
And do not seek to satisfy yourself in another current |
That will only bring sadness to your heart; |
Do not covet the silver or the land of others |
And don't tempt the wolf when there's a full moon |
Because he will not have mercy on you; |
Never blame the sky for your situation |
Don't even pretend to be someone else in your imagination |
Be wiser and accept the mold of your condition; |
And don't bury the mine that was handed to you |
Take advantage of the days that your God gave you |
And celebrate each dawn of the Sun |
Do not build your house without first stopping to think |
If in your hand you have enough to start |
And get to the end; |
Do not provoke the fight against your enemy |
If you have not calculated who is with you |
And how many will come to fight you; |
Never frown to forgive |
And don't throw the stone in the first place |
Nor ever avert your eyes to tell the truth; |
Try to be simpler, look around |
Be thankful for the rain, plant some flower |
And pinch yourself when you feel the sunlight |
And if you happen to stumble on your way |
Don't hide your face, even though you've fallen |
You will have to learn, to restart; |
That it is better to be honest and start from scratch |
Than concoct a shortcut to get there first |
And you will never be able to deceive God; |
And if you seek first the Kingdom of Heaven |
You will see all your wishes added |
And still in the dark night of your heart |
You will shine like pure gold indeed |
Like the eagle in flight you will soar |
You will see the sunlight shine again |
