Kenji Miyazawa
Not losing to the rain
Not losing to the wind
Not losing to the snow nor to heat in the summer
With having a strong body
Not fettered by desire
Never get angry
Always quietly smiling
Having 600g of brown rice
miso and some vegetables to eat in a day
In everything
Count yourself last and put others before you
Watching and listening, and understanding
and never forgetting
In the shade of the woods of the pines of the fields
being in a little thatched house
If there is a sick child to the east
Going and nursing over them
If there is a tired mother to the west
Going and shouldering her sheaf of rice
If there is someone near death to the south
Going and saying there's no need to be afraid
If there is a quarrel or a lawsuit to the north
Telling them to leave off with such waste
When there's drought, shedding tears of sympathy
When the summer's cold, wandering upset
Called a nobody by everyone
Without being praised
Without being blamed
Such a person
I want to become
