“疏忽之儿女啊！

勿钟情于必逝之国度，也莫为

之欢喜。你们恰似那粗心之鸟，在

枝头上满怀自信地鸣叫。直到突然

之间，死亡猎手将它掷于尘土，那

旋律、那姿态、那色彩，均消逝无

踪。因此要当心，欲望之奴啊！”

- 巴哈欧拉 -

“O CHILDREN OF NEGLIGENCE!

Set not your affections on mortal sovereignty and rejoice not therein. Ye

are even as the unwary bird that with full confidence warbleth upon the

bough; till of a sudden the fowler Death throws it upon the dust, and the

melody, the form and the color are gone, leaving not a trace. Wherefore

take heed, O bondslaves of desire!”

- Baha’u’llah -
