လြတ္လပ္ေသာ.....

GITANJALI " Song Offerings"

Rabindranath Tagore

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high; 

Where knowledge is free;

Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls;

Where words come out from the depth of truth;

Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;

Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;

Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action--

Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

This is my prayer to thee, my lord--strike, strike at the root ofpenury in my heart.

Give me the strength lightly to bear my joys and sorrows.

Give me the strength to make my love fruitful in service.

Give me the strength never to disown the poor or bend my kneesbefore insolent might.

Give me the strength to raise my mind high above daily trifles.

And give me the strength to surrender my strength to thy will with love.

လြတ္လပ္ေသာနိဗၺာန္

ရာဘိျႏၵာနတ္တဂိုး

စိတ္ကမေၾကာက္ဘဲႏွင့္ ေခါင္းကိုမတ္စြာ
ထားႏိုင္ေသာအရပ္၌လည္းေကာင္း၊

ပညာသည္ လြတ္လပ္ရာ၌လည္းေကာင္း၊

ကမၻာကို က်ဥ္းေျမာင္းေသာ လူမ်ိဳးစုနံရံမ်ားျဖင့္
ေတာက္စိတ္ပိုင္းျခားမႈ မရိွရာ၌လည္းေကာင္း၊

စကားသည္ နက္ရိႈင္းေသာ သစၥာတြင္းမွလာေသာ
အရပ္၌လည္းေကာင္း၊

မေနမနားေသာ အားထုတ္မႈသည္နိဗၺာန္္သို႔
လက္လွမ္းေသာအရပ္၌လည္းေကာင္း၊

ဆင္ျခင္မႈေခ်ာင္းေရသန္႔သည္ အက်င့္ေဆြး သဲကႏၱရတြင္
ခရီးလမ္းစ မေပ်ာက္ရာ၌လည္းေကာင္း၊

စိတ္ကို အစဥ္ပ်ံံ႕ပ်ဴးေသာ ေတြးဆျပဳလုပ္မႈတို႔သို႔
အရွင္ေရွ့ေဆာင္ရာ၌လည္းေကာင္း၊

ထိုလြတ္လပ္ေသာ နိဗၺာန္္၌တပည့္ေတာ္၏ တိုင္းျပည္သည္
ႏိုးၾကားႏိုင္ပါေစ အရွင္ဘုရား။ ။
