| [00:00.82] | You are a child of the universe |
| [00:08.68] | No less than the trees and the stars |
| [00:14.22] | You have a right... |
| [00:18.82] | Desiderata. Desiderata. Desiderata |
| [00:28.44] | 【Desiderata. (Latin: "things desired")】 |
| [00:31.39] | Go placidly amid the noise and haste |
| [00:35.01] | And remember what peace there may be in silence |
| [00:39.92] | As far as possible without surrender |
| [00:43.42] | Be on good terms with all persons |
| [00:46.84] | Speak your truth quietly and clearly, and listen to others - |
| [00:52.20] | Even the dull and ignorant, they too have their story |
| [00:58.50] | Avoid loud and aggressive persons - they are vexations to the spirit |
| [01:04.86] | If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter |
| [01:09.90] | For always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself |
| [01:14.48] | You are a child of the universe |
| [01:20.54] | No less than the trees and the stars |
| [01:23.56] | You have a right to be here |
| [01:26.57] | And whether or not it is clear to you |
| [01:33.30] | No doubt the universe is unfolding as it should |
| [01:46.14] | Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans |
| [01:50.07] | Keep interested in your own career - |
| [01:52.61] | However humble, it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time |
| [01:58.95] | Exercise caution in your business affairs |
| [02:01.53] | For the world is full of trickery |
| [02:04.54] | But let this not blind you to what virtue there is |
| [02:07.68] | Many persons strive for high ideals |
| [02:10.50] | And everywhere life is full of heroism |
| [02:14.11] | Be yourself |
| [02:15.68] | Especially do not feign affection, neither be cynical about love |
| [02:20.53] | For in the face of all aridity and disenchantment |
| [02:23.92] | It is as perenial as the grass |
| [02:26.68] | Take kindly the council of the years |
| [02:28.73] | Gracefully surrendering the things of youth |
| [02:31.60] | Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune |
| [02:35.73] | But do not distress yourself with imaginings - |
| [02:38.61] | Many fears are borne of fatigue and loneliness |
| [02:41.82] | Beyond a wholesome discipline, |
| [02:44.90] | Be gentle with yourself |
| [02:46.16] | You are a child of the universe (You are a child of the universe) |
| [02:52.08] | No less than the trees and the stars (No less than the trees and the stars) |
| [02:55.18] | You have a right to be here (You have a right to be here) |
| [02:58.11] | And whether or not it is clear to you (And whether or not it is clear to you) |
| [03:04.21] | No doubt the universe is unfolding as it should (No doubt the universe is unfolding as it should) |
| [03:14.30] | Therefore, be at peace with God, whatever you conceive him to be |
| [03:20.50] | And whatever your labors and aspirations |
| [03:23.09] | In the noisy confusion of life |
| [03:25.90] | Keep peace with your soul |
| [03:28.34] | With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams |
| [03:31.83] | It is still a beautiful world |
| [03:35.14] | Be careful. Strive to be happy |
| [03:38.67] | You are a child of the universe |
| [03:44.56] | No less than the trees and the stars |
| [03:47.69] | You have a right to be here |
| [03:50.87] | You are a child of the universe |
| [03:56.57] | No less than the trees and the stars |
| [03:59.67] | You have a right to be here |
| [04:02.88] | (Repeat) |
| [00:00.82] | You are a child of the universe |
| [00:08.68] | No less than the trees and the stars |
| [00:14.22] | You have a right... |
