lipu Nasin — kasi nanpa 26

重为轻根Heaviness is the root of lightness.
静为躁君Composure is the ruler of instability.
是以圣人终日行Therefore the sage travels all day
不离辎重Without putting down his heavy load.
虽有荣观Though there may be spectacles to see
燕处超然He easily passes them by.
奈何This being so
万乘之主How could the ruler of a large state
而以身轻天下Be so concerned with himself as to ignore the people?
轻则失本If you take them lightly you will lose your roots.
躁则失君If you are unstable, you will lose your rulership.
