Victor Hugo

What matter it though life uncertain be to all?何必去管它，人生總是無定，

What though its goal be never reached? 壯志難成又有什么關(guān)系，

What though it fall and flee― 又何必計較你蹉跌并敗奔——

Have we not each a soul? 我們豈不是各自有靈魂？

Be like the bird that on a bough too frail 要像那鳥兒在柔弱的枝梢，

To bear him gaily swings 經(jīng)不起它歡樂地跳躍；

He carols though the slender branches fail― 雖然那細枝折斷了它仍歌唱——

He knows he has wings! 因為它知道自己有翅膀！
