I want to pass on the straight path.....

I don't want too much comfort, too much happiness
Soft bed, fine clothes, dirty face.

Cars, unnecessary words of peace, words of wisdom
Making love, tears in my eyes, and enmity.

I don't want to lose love even a little
To be spoiled by displeasure, or to be despised.

A puppet in someone's hand, bewildered or burdened
Whoever understands me, put me on his head or pulls my beard.

I want to walk the straight path for eternity.
