I want to teach my students how to live this life on earth,
To face its struggle and its strife and improve their worth.
Not just the lesson in a book or how the rivers flow,
But how to choose the proper path wherever they may go.
To understand eternal truth and know the right from wrong,
And gather all the beauty of a flower and a song.
For if I help the world to grow in wisdom and in grace,
Then, I shall feel that I have won and I have filled my place.
And so I ask my guidance, God, that I may do my part,
For character and confidence and happiness of heart.
我想教會(huì)學(xué)生如何去生活,
如何面對(duì)困難,完善自我。
不只是書本知識(shí)或是自然奧秘,
而是如何走好人生之旅。
學(xué)會(huì)去辨別是非,找尋真理,
從平凡的點(diǎn)滴中發(fā)掘美的韻律。
如果我的存在使這個(gè)世界更加絢麗,
那么我也就實(shí)現(xiàn)了自己的人生目的。
所以蒼天作證,我已全心全意,
詮釋了品格、信心和幸福的真諦。
