God, grant us the serenity to accept things we cannot change,

Deus, conceda-me a serenidade para aceitar aquilo que no posso mudar,

Courage to change the things we can,

a coragem para mudar o que me for possvel

and the wisdom to know the difference

e a sabedoria para saber discernir entre as duas.

Patience for the things that take time

D-me tambm pacincia para as coisas que demoram

Appreciation for all that we have,

Gratido por tudo que tenho

Tolerance for those with different struggles

Tolerncia para com os que travam outras lutas

The ability to feel your love for us and our love for each other,

A habilidade para sentir Seu amor por mim e o que existe entre as
pessoas,

and the strength to get up and try again even when we feel it is
hopeless.

A fora para levantar e tentar de novo, mesmo quando parece no haver

esperana.
