原文與注釋(Text and Annotation)

---

Therefore, birds, sing a happy song and let the young lambs leap as though their time were being beaten for them on a drum. We will join you in our thoughts: those of you who are playing, all of you who feel a great happiness in your hearts today. Even though the brightness which was once so brilliant has now been taken from my sight, and even though nothing could bring back that hour of the grass's splendor and the flower's glory, nevertheless, we will not be unhappy. But rather we will find strength in what is felt; namely, in the first experience of sympathy which once having felt it, we will always postsee; in the consoling thoughts that come from human sufferings; and in the faith that looks through death to life beyond in the years that bring the understanding mind.
