Tao te tjen - Tao te Ching

I saw this challenge on Facebook and rather liked it.  It's true, of course.  "Jeegu masab ole:leet berai dee tree dee jut, a bee-enuun op jalenin oahl."

You can hear it below. :)

Ba fias utetreekainia baneot ahl ba fias ba kala.
Ba bee-enuu utemii-inia baneot ahl ba bee-enuu ba kala.
Ba bee-enuub baham baahl griawa repi ba aan wii ba priia.
Ba bee-enuub bale:leet ama ba ivi baahl.

inee:
wiisab kahami, ba jwri le:eeteraug se.
frn wiis kriani, ta katarain otiab peeteraug se.
Jeeguu masab ole:leet berai dee tree dee jut, a bee-enuun op jalenin oahl.
Jeed baahl ba deelew-
ba deelew gre kala.

-----

The Way that can be walked is not the eternal Way.
The name that can be named is not the eternal name.
The nameless is the beginning of Heaven and Earth.
The named is the mother of all things.

Therefore:
Free from desire you see the mystery.
Full of desire you see the manifestations.
These two have the same origin but differ in name.
That is the secret,
The secret of secrets.
