英译老子《道德经》第一章

 

 

 

 

Chapter One

 

A dao that is definable is not the eternal Dao.

A name that is assignable is not the eternal name.

“Nonexistence” is named for the genesis of heaven-and-earth

“Existence,” the mother of all beings.

Hence, through constant meditation on nonexistence, we can see its secrets.

Through constant observation of existence, its manifestations.

These two, although given different names, are of the same origin.

They are both mysterious--

So mysterious that they can serve as the gate to the secrets of all.
