TOMORROW

Tomorrow I shall get up

            Early in the morning,

                        Since today I am dead-tired.

Tomorrow I shall meditate on God,

            Since today my impure vital, jealous mind

                        And insecure heart

            Are bothering me far beyond my tolerance-might.

Tomorrow I shall definitely love God,

            Since today I feel a kind of inner obligation

                        To please my body, vital, mind and heart.

After all, they comprise my own poor little life.

            But tomorrow without fail

                        I shall love God.

SUTRA

Sutra ću ustati

            Rano ujutru,

                        Pošto sam danas mrtav umoran.

Sutra ću meditirati na Boga,

            Pošto me danas moj nečisti vital, ljubomorni um

                        I nesigurno srce

            Muče daleko više nego što mogu da tolerišem.

Sutra ću definitivno voleti Bota,

            Pošto danas osećam neku vrstu unutrašnje obaveze

                        Da ugađam mom telu, vitalu, umu i srcu.

Na kraju krajeva, od njih se sastoji moj jadni mali život.

            Ali sutra ću, bez greške,

                        Voleti Boga.

THE TRUTH

My imagination

Visions the Truth.

My aspiration

Nears the Truth.

My realisation

Reaches the Truth.

My perfection

Becomes the Truth.

My smile

Is the Truth.

ISTINA

Moja mašta

Ima viziju Istine.

Moja težnja

Se približava Istini.

Moja spoznaja

Dostiže Istinu.

Moje savršenstvo

Postaje Istina.

Moj osmeh

Je Istina.
