这首励志英文诗，送给正在拼命努力的你！

英文诗《If》如果

If you can keep your head when all about you

Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,

如果周围的人失去理智，纷纷责难于你

而你能淡定处之

If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,

But make allowance for their doubting too;

如果他们对你心存猜忌

你却能自信不改，并原谅他们的猜忌

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,

如果你肯等待时机，不急不躁

Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,

或遭人诽谤，却不以牙还牙

Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,

或遭人憎恨，却不以怨抱怨

And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:

既不装腔作势，亦不花言巧语

If you can dreamand not make dreams your master;

如果你坚持梦想，又不被梦想左右心智

If you can thinkand not make thoughts your aim;

如果你审慎思考，又不会因此走火入魔

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster

如果你能坦然面对胜利和惨败

And treat those two impostors just the same

对胜负荣辱的虚无缥缈了然于胸

If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken

Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,

如果你能忍受无赖们曲解你的真心之言

拿去误导愚昧的人们

Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,

And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:

或者能眼睁睁看着你用心血浇灌的所有一朝被毁

却能忍辱负重脚踏实地重新攀登

If you can make one heap of all your winnings

And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,

如果你敢压上毕生赢取的所有筹码

为更崇高的目标孤注一掷

And lose, and start again at your beginnings

And never breathe a word about your loss;

面临失去，能又再从头开始

而从此只字不提滑铁卢的惨败

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew

To serve your turn long after they are gone,

如果，人们早已离你而去

你仍然能坚守阵地奋力前驱

And so hold on when there is nothing in you

Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’

当身上已一无所有，唯有意志在高喊：顶住

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,

如果你能与平庸之辈为伍而不变谦虚态度

Or walk with Kingsnor lose the common touch,

或出将入相，而面无谄媚之色

If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,

如果死敌或至亲都无法对你造成伤害

If all men count with you, but none too much;

如果众人都对你信赖有加，又不过分依赖

If you can fill the unforgiving minute

With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,

如果你能珍惜每寸逝去不再回的光阴

把每分每秒用到极致

Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,

Andwhich is moreyou’ll be a Man, my son!

那么，你的成就会如天地一样博大

更重要的是，我的孩子，你就是一个顶天立地的人了！
