nei giorni a venire, quando Siddharta sarebbe diventato un dio, egli sarebbe stato lì

in days to come, when Siddhartha would become a god, he would be there

Quando si sarebbe unito ai gloriosi, sarebbe stato lì

when he would join the glorious, he would be there

Govinda voleva seguirlo come suo amico

Govinda wanted to follow him as his friend

era il suo compagno e il suo servo

he was his companion and his servant

Era il suo portatore di lancia e la sua ombra

he was his spear-carrier and his shadow

Siddharta era amato da tutti

Siddhartha was loved by everyone

Era fonte di gioia per tutti

He was a source of joy for everybody

Era una delizia per tutti loro

he was a delight for them all

Ma lui, Siddharta, non era una fonte di gioia per se stesso

But he, Siddhartha, was not a source of joy for himself
