English term
without being self-satisfied in a negative sense
English to Persian (Farsi)
Art/Literary
Poetry & Literature
How would you translate "without being self-satisfied in a negative sense"? She's saying that she's caused no harm during her entire life and is somehow happy about this.
And without being self-satisfied in a negative sense, I feel that I have caused no harm and can come to my end with few regrets and little guilt.
And without being self-satisfied in a negative sense, I feel that I have caused no harm and can come to my end with few regrets and little guilt.

بدون آنکه به خود غرّه باشم
فکر می‌کنم کلمات «غرّه» و «مغرور» خودش بُعد منفی رو دربرداره.

If you describe someone as self-satisfied, you mean that they are too pleased with themselves about their achievements or their situation and they think that nothing better is possible
خودشیفته هم معادل خوب دیگری‌ست

درسته.
به نظرم می‌گه از عملکردم در زندگی راضی‌ام و این نشانۀ خودشیفته بودنم یا غرّه شدنم نیست. فکر می‌کنم اون قسمت برای تأکید اومده؛ تأکید می‌کنه از خودش رضایت شخصی داره، اما این رضایت متکبرانه و منفی نیست.

Note from asker:
| Thanks for the explanation. I think "Self-satisfied", on its own, has a negative ring to it. So I'm wondering why the write added "in a negative sense" to the phrase. Do you think is "به معنای منفی کلمه" correct? |

بدون اینکه در مفهومی منفی از خود راضی باشم
بین کلمه ازخودراضی و عبارت راضی بودن از خود تفاوت هست. فکر کنم برای قائل شدن این تمایز
in a negative sense
را آورده است یعنی از خودم راضی هستم اما ازخودراضی نیستم
in a negative sense
را آورده است یعنی از خودم راضی هستم اما ازخودراضی نیستم
