אַאַמוּ"ר אָמַר
My revered father, the Rebbe [Rashab], once said:
אַ חָסִיד מאַכט אַ סְבִיבָה
“A chassid creates an environment.
אוֹיבּ נִיט, דאַרְף עֶר גוּט אַ טאַפּ טאָן בּאַ זִיך אִין פּעֶקְל
If not, he must carefully check through his own knapsack;
וואָס טוּט זִיך מִיט אִיהְם אַלֵיין
he must examine his own spiritual state.
אוּן דאָס אַלֵיין וואָס עֶר מאַכְט נִיט קֵיין סְבִיבָה
The very fact that he is not creating an environment
דאַרף אִיהְם צוּבְּרעֶכעֶן וִוי אַ קִינעֶלעֶ (קֵיסָם)
should crush him like a mere splinter.
אוּן עֶר דאַרף פְרעֶגעֶן בַּא זִיך אַלֵיין
He should ask himself:
וואָס טוּ אִיך אוֹיף דעֶר וועֶלט
‘What am I doing in this world?’"
