in days to come, when Siddhartha would become a god, he would be there

i de kommende dage, når Siddhartha ville blive en gud, ville han være der

when he would join the glorious, he would be there

når han ville slutte sig til det herlige, ville han være der

Govinda wanted to follow him as his friend

Govinda ville følge ham som sin ven

he was his companion and his servant

han var hans ledsager og hans tjener

he was his spear-carrier and his shadow

han var hans spydbærer og hans skygge

Siddhartha was loved by everyone

Siddhartha var elsket af alle

He was a source of joy for everybody

Han var en kilde til glæde for alle

he was a delight for them all

han var en fryd for dem alle

But he, Siddhartha, was not a source of joy for himself

Men han, Siddhartha, var ikke en kilde til glæde for sig selv

he found no delight in himself

han fandt ingen glæde i sig selv
