jimclatfelter | Re: LFN Dao De Jing
Oce, Jorg, multe grasias! Me ia tradui la completa Daodejing en engles ma no aora en LFN. Me vole usa me tradui engles como fundo de tradui a en LFN. Espera me presenta alga strofes cada semana. Me ta va es felis ajunta la strofes cuando tu aproba me LFN.
Strofes un e du denova usante la editor normal de Yahoo (no la "rich-text" editor):
Strofe 1.
A Dao that is spoken is not the constant Dao.
Un Dao ce es paralada no es la constante Dao.
A name that is given is not the constant name.
Un nom ce es nomida no es la constante nom.
Nonexistence names the origin of heaven and earth.
Nonesiste nomi la orijin de sielo e tera.
Existence names the mother of all things.
Esiste nomi el madre de tota cosa.
Observe nonexistence if you wish to see its essence.
Oserva nonesiste si tu vole vidi el esence.
Observe existence if you wish to see its appearance.
Oserva esiste si tu vole vidi el apare.
These two have a common origin,
Though they have different names.
Esta du ave comun orijin
An si los ave diferente nomes.
Call them both deep,
Clama ambos profonda,
Deep and deeper still,
Profunda e sempre plu profunda,
The gateway to all mystery.
La porton de tota misterio.
Strofe 2.
When all the world sees beauty as beauty,
Cuando tuta la mundo vide bela como bela
There is ugliness too.
Ave fea ance.
When all see kindness as kindness,
Cuando tuta vide amable como amable
There is unkindness as well.
Ave basa ance.
Thus it is that existence and nonexistence arise together.
Donce es ce esiste e nonesiste veni juntada.
Difficult and easy complete each other.
Difisil e fasil completi la un la otra.
Long and short shape each other.
Longa e corta formi la un the otra.
Lofty and lowly lean on each other.
Alta e basa inclina la un a la otra.
Sound and song harmonize each other.
Sona e musica armonios la un con la otra.
Before and after accompany one another.
Ante e pos acompania la un la orta.
Thus seers act without acting
Donce es ce saja fa sin fa
And teach without speaking.
E instrui sin parla.
All beings arise in the present,
And none are rejected.
Tota esentes nase en la presente,
E non es refusada.
They are nourished but not owned
Los es nurida ma no poseseda
And served but not relied upon.
E aidada ma no fideda.
Merit is achieved but not claimed.
Merita es atenida ma no declarada.
Since it isn't claimed, it isn't lost.
Car no es declarada, no es perdeda.
[I hope the formatting on the yahoogroup webpage comes out better than my first post did.]
Grasias denova,
