At this moment, lying on the sick bed and
recalling my whole life,
I realize that all the recognition and wealth that
I took so much pride in, have paled and become
meaningless in the face of impending death.
Should be something that is more important:
もっと大切な何か他のこと。
Perhaps relationships, perhaps art,
perhaps a dream from younger days …
それは、人間関係や、芸術や、
または若い頃からの夢かもしれない。
Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn
a person into a twisted being, just like me.
終わりを知らない富の追求は、
人を歪ませてしまう。私のようにね。
God gave us the senses to let us feel
the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions
brought about by wealth.
神は、誰もの心の中に、
富みによってもたらされた幻想ではなく、
愛を感じさせるための「感覚」
というものを与えてくださった。
The wealth I have won in my life I cannot bring with me.
私が勝ち得た富は、(私が死ぬ時に)
一緒に持っていけるものではない。
What I can bring is only the
memories precipitated by love.
私が持っていける物は、愛情にあふれた思い出だけだ。

That’s the true riches which will follow you,
accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on.
