Если духом ты слаб [Yesli duhom ty slab] [English translation]
Если духом ты слаб [Yesli duhom ty slab] [English translation]
If you are weak in spirit and excessively proud of yourself,
If you strive to be famous by any means,
Know that in peril and need you will reconcile with deceit and lie
And in the face of power you will obey others will.
If you are weak in faith and do not pray to the heavens,
If you do not bow before the Lord in true repentance,
Know that you lose the precious years of your life
And in vantities of the world you will not know the meaning of your life.
There is only one path of life, your time on the Earth will rush unnoticed.
Everyone has to leave a mark and achieve something,
Live a worthy life and completely evade sin,
And everyone has to sincerely aspire to good deeds.
If you judge others and try to count their sins
Start with your own, and you barely reach those of others.
If you'll rise above others when acquire money and luxury,
Know that wealth will pass and you will nevertheless come full circle.
If you live aloud just for your own ends and are faint-hearted,
If you value yourself and are obedient to the voice of doubt,
If you are indifferent to sufferings and woes of others,
Know that the fire of honor and goodness is put out in your heart.
There is only one path of life, your time on the Earth will rush unnoticed.
Everyone has to leave a mark and achieve something,
Live a worthy life and completely evade sin,
And everyone has to sincerely aspire to good deeds.
In the time of great peril you will know the fidelity of a friend
You will know the value of a friend when you will lose him completely.
Do not always say aloud and divulge everything you know,
But always be sure and know what you say with your mouth.
The one who tells – sows, the one who listens – reaps,
Great anger will test the wise and war will test the courageous.
Goodness is the cloth of the saints and it never becomes decrepit
Everything comes for those who patiently expect fate.
There is only one path of life, your time on the Earth will rush unnoticed.
Everyone has to leave a mark and achieve something,
Live a worthy life and completely evade sin,
And everyone has to sincerely aspire to good deeds.
