For he who gives gives all.
By halves you cannot live;
Then let the barrier fall,
In one circle have all.’……

Circle and Square by Edwin Muir
‘I give you half of me;
No more, lest I should make
A ground for perjury.
For your sake, for my sake,
Half will you take?’
‘Half I’ll not take nor give,
For he who gives gives all.
By halves you cannot live;
Then let the barrier fall,
In one circle have all.’
“A wise and ancient scorner
Said to me once: Beware
The road that has no corner
Where you can linger and stare.
Choose the square.
‘And let the circle run
Its dull and fevered race.
You, my dear, are one;
Show your soul in your face;
Maintain your place.
‘Give, but have something to give.
No man can want you all.
Live, and learn to live.
When all the barriers fall
You are nothing at all.’

Edwin Muir (1887-1959)
Κύκλος και Τετράγωνο
“Σας δίνω το μισό από εμένα·
Όχι παραπάνω, μήπως και δώσω
Λαβές για ψευδορκία.
Για χάρη μου, για χάρη σας
Το ήμισυ θα πάρετε;”
“Μισό δεν θα πάρω ούτε θα δώσω,
Γιατί αυτός που δίνει τα δίνει όλα.
Με μισά δεν μπορείς να ζήσεις·
Άσε λοιπόν τα εμπόδια να πέσουν,
Σε ένα κύκλο τα έχεις όλα.”
Ένας σοφός και αρχαίος καταφρονητής
Μου είπε κάποτε: “Να προσέχεις
Το δρόμο που δεν έχει γωνίες
Στις οποίες μπορείς να χρονοτριβήσεις και να κοιτάζεις.
Διάλεξε το τετράγωνο.
Και άσε τον κύκλο να τρέχει
Τον βαρετό και πυρετώδη αγώνα του.
Εσύ, αγαπημένε μου, είσαι ένας·
Δείξε την ψυχή σου στο πρόσωπο σου·
Διατήρησε τη θέση σου.
Δώσε, αλλά να έχεις κάτι να δώσεις
Κανένας άνθρωπος δεν μπορεί να σε θέλει όλο.
Ζήσε, και μάθε να ζεις.
Όταν όλα τα εμπόδια πέσουν
Δεν είσαι τίποτα.

…but most of the people live like half-people, trying to live a life in egoism and materialism, they want the money, fame, might; and at the same time they want to be spiritually aware, they want to achieve spiritual enlightenment while carrying bags of money and their disturbed past with them on that way. But the bags are to heavy to carry while they’re trying to climb the high and slippery stairs that reach the ultimate wisdom. It’s like in that Led Zeppelin’s song, “Stairway to Heaven” (…and she’s buying her stairway to Heaven…)…
