吉檀迦利 第十四章

孙祎卓

My desires are many and my cry is pitiful, but ever didst thou save me by hard refusals; and this strong mercy has been wrought into my life through and through.

Day by day thou art making me worthy of the simple, great gifts that thou gavest to me unasked---this sky and the light, this body and the life and the mind---saving me from perils of overmuch desire.

There are times when I languidly linger and times when I awaken and hurry in search of my goal; but cruelly thou hidest thyself from before me.

Day by day thou art making me worthy of thy full acceptance by refusing me ever and anon, saving me from perils of weak, uncertain desire.

我的欲望很多，我的哭泣也很可怜，但你永远用坚决的拒绝来拯救我，这刚强的慈悲已经紧密地交织在我的生命里．

你使我一天一天地更配领受你自动的简单伟大的赐予――这天空和光明，这躯体和生命与心灵――把我从极欲的危险中拯救了出来．

有时候我懈怠地捱延，有时候我急忙警觉寻找我的路向；但是你却忍心地躲藏起来．

你不断地拒绝我，从软弱动摇的欲望的危险中拯救了我，使我一天一天更配得你完全的接纳．
