+\begin{verse}
+Go placidly amid the noise and haste,\\
+and remember what peace there may be in silence.\\
+As far as possible without surrender\\
+be on good terms with all persons.\\
+Speak your truth quietly and clearly;\\
+and listen to others,\\
+even the dull and the ignorant;\\
+they too have their story.
+
+Avoid loud and aggressive persons,\\
+they are vexations to the spirit.\\
+If you compare yourself with others,\\
+you may become vain and bitter;\\
+for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.\\
+Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
+
+Keep interested in your own career, however humble;\\
+it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.\\
+Exercise caution in your business affairs;\\
+for the world is full of trickery.\\
+But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;\\
+many persons strive for high ideals;\\
+and everywhere life is full of heroism.
+
+Be yourself.\\
+Especially, do not feign affection.\\
+Neither be cynical about love;\\
+for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment\\
+it is as perennial as the grass.
+
+Take kindly the counsel of the years,\\
+gracefully surrendering the things of youth.\\
+Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.\\
+But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.\\
+Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.\\
+Beyond a wholesome discipline,\\
+be gentle with yourself.
+
+You are a child of the universe,\\
+no less than the trees and the stars;\\
+you have a right to be here.\\
+And whether or not it is clear to you,\\
+no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
+
+Therefore be at peace with God,\\
+whatever you conceive Him to be,\\
+and whatever your labors and aspirations,\\
+in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.
+
+With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,\\
+it is still a beautiful world.\\
+Be cheerful.\\
+Strive to be happy.

+\begin{verse}
+Gehe gelassen inmitten von Lärm und Hast\\
+und denke an den Frieden der Stille.
+
+So weit als möglich, ohne dich aufzugeben,\\
+sei auf gutem Fuß mit jedermann.\\
+Sprich deine Wahrheit ruhig und klar aus,\\
+und höre Andere an,\\
+auch wenn sie langweilig und unwissend sind,\\
+denn auch sie haben an ihrem Schicksal zu tragen.\\
+Meide die Lauten und Streitsüchtigen.\\
+Sie verwirren den Geist.
+
+Vergleichst du dich mit anderen,\\
+kannst du hochmütig oder verbittert werden,\\
+denn immer wird es Menschen geben,\\
+die bedeutender oder schwächer sind als du.\\
+Erfreue dich am Erreichten und an deinen Plänen.\\
+Bemühe dich um deinen eigenen Werdegang,\\
+wie bescheiden er auch sein mag;\\
+er ist ein fester Besitz im Wandel der Zeit.
+
+Sei vorsichtig bei deinen Geschäften,\\
+denn die Welt ist voller Betrügerei.\\
+Aber lass deswegen das Gute nicht aus den Augen,\\
+denn Tugend ist auch vorhanden:\\
+Viele streben nach Idealen,\\
+und Helden gibt es überall im Leben.
+
+Sei du selbst.\\
+Täusche vor allem keine falschen Gefühle vor.\\
+Sei auch nicht zynisch, wenn es um Liebe geht,\\
+denn trotz aller Öde und Enttäuschung verdorrt sie nicht,\\
+sondern wächst weiter wie Gras.
+
+Höre freundlich auf den Ratschlag des Alters,\\
+und verzichte mit Anmut auf die Dinge der Jugend.\\
+Stärke die Kräfte deines Geistes,\\
+um dich bei plötzlichem Unglück dadurch zu schützen.\\
+Quäle dich nicht mit Wahnbildern.\\
+Viele Ängste kommen aus Erschöpfung und Einsamkeit.\\
+Bei aller angemessenen Disziplin,\\
+sei freundlich zu dir selbst.\\
+Genau wie die Bäume und Sterne,\\
+so bist auch du ein Kind des Universums.\\
+Du hast ein Recht auf deine Existenz.
+
+Und ob du es verstehst oder nicht,\\
+entfaltet sich die Welt so wie sie soll.\\
+Bleibe also in Frieden mit Gott,\\
+was immer er für dich bedeutet,\\
+und was immer deine Sehnsüchte und Mühen\\
+in der lärmenden Verworrenheit des Lebens seien –\\
+bewahre den Frieden in deiner Seele.\\
+Bei allen Täuschungen, Plackereien und zerronnenen Träumen\\
+ist es dennoch eine schöne Welt.
+
+Sei frohgemut. Strebe danach glücklich zu sein.
