TATITERA — Жизнь бумеранг
Do no evil — it will return like a boomerang, Don't spit in the well — you'll drink the water, Don't insult the one of lower rank, What if you suddenly need to ask for something.
Don't betray friends — you can't replace them, And don't lose loved ones — you won't get them back, Don't lie to yourself — in time you'll see That with that lie you betray yourself.
You rose from the dirt to princely rank, But quickly becoming a prince, Don't forget, lest you jinx it: Princes aren't eternal — dirt is.
To live life wisely, one must know a great deal, Remember two important rules to start: Better go hungry than eat just anything, And better be alone than with just anyone.
Two looked out one window. One saw rain and mud, The other — green foliage's lace, Spring and a blue sky. Two looked out one window.
One won't tell what roses smell like, The other will make honey from bitter herbs. Give someone a trifle — they'll remember forever, Give someone your life — and they won't even understand.
Don't anger others and don't get angry yourself. We are guests in this mortal world, And if something's wrong — resign yourself. Think with a cool head. For everything in the world is lawful: The evil you radiate Will surely return to you!
