Patience is the strength of the weak
Also the ornament of the strong !
Kshama balam ashakthanam
Shakthanam bhooshanam Kshama !
… Many are the teachings of the wise
In ancient and in modern books enrolled
Extolling Patience as the truest fortitude
And to the bearing end of all calamities
All chances incident to man’s frail life !
Kshantavyam purusheneva
Sarvapatsu sushobhane
Thasyabhavaya bhavathi
Krodha Paramadaruna !
The patient will be extolled
As it is he who triumphs
He conquers, who endures
He who suffers, conquers !
The end of Anger is
A great disaster indeed !
