人生好比一個客棧
This being human is a guest house,
每個早晨都有旅客前來
Enery morning a new arrvial,
有愉悅的、有悲傷的、也有卑劣刻薄的旅客
A joy,adepression,a meanness,
在某些瞬然的片刻就如意外的旅客翩然到訪
Some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor.
歡迎並熱情招待他們每一個
Welcome and entertain them all,
即使他們是一群恐怖的悲傷情緒
Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows,
狂暴的破壞你的房子，將你的房內傢俱一掃而空
Who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture,
也是如上賓的招待他們
Still,treat each guest honorabl,
因為他可能帶來某些嶄新的歡悅
He may be clearing you out ,
滌淨你的心靈
for some new delight.
無論來的是灰暗的念頭、羞愧的情緒或是邪惡的想法
The dark thought ,theshame,the malice,
都要在門口笑臉相迎
meet them at the door laughing,
歡迎他們進入你的內心
And invite them in.
對任何訪客都要心存感恩
Be grateful for whoever comes
因為他們每一位都是上天派來的嚮導
Because each has been sent as guide from beyond.
