Notes

• The multitude of men look satisfied and pleased;
  as if enjoying a full banquet, as if mounted on a tower in spring.

  I alone seem listless and still,
  my desires having as yet given no indication of their presence.
  I am like an infant which has not yet smiled.
  I look dejected and forlorn, as if I had no home to go to.
  The multitude of men all have enough and to spare.
  I alone seem to have lost everything.
  My mind is that of a stupid man;
  I am in a state of chaos.

  Ordinary men look bright and intelligent,
  while I alone seem to be benighted.
  They look full of discrimination,
  while I alone am dull and confused.
  I seem to be carried about as on the sea,
  drifting as if I had nowhere to rest.

  All men have their spheres of action,
  while I alone seem dull and incapable,
  I alone am different from other men,
  but I value the nursing-mother (the Tao).

  Lang schon fahr ich auf den Meeren, Wind und Woge weiß wohin, fern von allen meinen Ufern fühl ich das ich traurig bin…
