according to legend, a young man while roaming the desert came across a spring of delicious crystal-clear water. the water was so sweet, he filled his leather canteen so he could bring some back to a tribal elder who had been his teacher.
据传说，一个年轻的男子在漫游沙漠途中看到一泉如水晶般清澈而可口的水。水的味道非常甜美，于是他灌满了他的皮水壶，这样就可以带一些回去，送给曾经是他老师的部落长老。

after a four-day journey he presented the water to the old man who took a deep drink, smiled warmly and thanked his student lavishly for the sweet water. the young man returned to his village with a happy heart.
经过四天的旅程，他把水呈献给老人。老人深饮一口，和蔼地笑了笑，并深切感激学生赠予他甜美的水。年轻人怀着愉快的心情回到了村庄。

later, the teacher let another student taste the water. he spat it out, saying it was awful. it apparently had become stale because of the old leather container.
后来，老师让他的另一个学生品尝水。学生吐了出来，说水太难喝了。它显然已经因为陈旧的皮革容器而变得不再新鲜。

the student challenged his teacher: "master, the water was foul. why did you pretend to like it?"
学生质疑他的老师：“师父，水是臭的，你为什么要假装喜欢它？”

the teacher replied, "you only tasted the water. i tasted the gift. the water was simply the container for an act of loving-kindness and nothing could be sweeter."
老师回答说，“你只品尝了水的味道，我却是在品尝礼物的味道。水仅仅是装载善与爱之行为的容器，而没有什么东西比善与爱更甜美了。”
