Text :
----------------------------------



If my mind’s modest,

I walk the great way.

Arrogance

is all I fear.



The great way is low and plain,

but people like shortcuts over the mountains.



The palace is full of splendor

and the fields are full of weeds

and the granaries are full of nothing.



People wearing ornaments and fancy clothes,

carrying weapons,

drinking a lot and eating a lot,

having a lot of things, a lot of money:

shameless thieves.

Surely their way

isn’t the way.[36]
