이것 또한 지나가리라 - 랜터 윌슨 스미스

This, too, shall pass away. - Lanta Wilson Smith

When some great sorrow, like a mighty river,
flows through your life with peace-destroying power,
and dearest things are swept from sight forever,
say to your heart each trying hour:
This, too, shall pass away.

When ceaseless toil has hushed your song of gladness,
and you have grown almost too tired to pray,
let this truth banish from your heart its sadness,
and ease the burdens of each trying day:
This, too, shall pass away.

When fortune smiles, and, full of mirth and pleasure,
the days are flitting by without care,
lest you should rest with only earthly treasures,
let these few words their fullest import bear:
This, too, shall pass away.

When earnest labor brings you fame and glory,
and all earth's noblest ones upon you smile,
remember that life's longest, grandest story
fills but a moments in earth's little while:
This, too, shall pass away.

이것 또한 지나가리라 - 랜터 윌슨 스미스

슬픔이 그대의 삶으로 밀려와
마음을 흔들고 소중한 것들을 쓸어가 버릴 때면
그대 가슴에 대고 다만 말하라

'이것 또한 지나가리라'

행운이 그대에게 미소짓고 기쁨과 환희로 가득할 때
근심없는 날들이 스쳐갈때면 세속적인 것들에만 의존하지 않도록
이 진실을 조용히 가슴에 새기라

'이것 또한 지나가리라'
