人们经常是不讲道理的、没有逻辑的和以自我为中心的
不管怎样，你要原谅他们
People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.

 

即使你是友善的，人们可能还是会说你自私和动机不良
不管怎样，你还是要友善
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.

 

当你功成名就，你会有一些虚假的朋友
和一些真实的敌人
不管怎样，你还是要取得成功
If you are successful, you will win some false friends
And some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.

 

即使你是诚实的和率直的，人们可能还是会欺骗你
不管怎样，你还是要诚实和率直
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.

 

你多年来营造的东西
有人在一夜之间把它摧毁
不管怎样，你还是要去营造
What you spend years building,
Someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.

 

如果你找到了平静和幸福，他们可能会嫉妒你
不管怎样，你还是要快乐
If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.

 

你今天做的善事，人们往往明天就会忘记
不管怎样，你还是要做善事
The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow;
Be good anyway.

 

即使把你最好的东西给了这个世界
也许这些东西永远都不够
不管怎样，把你最好的东西给这个世界
Give the world the best you have,
And it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you have anyway.

 

你看，说到底，它是你和上帝之间的事
而决不是你和他人之间的事
You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God;
It is never between you and them anyway.
