And never breathe a word about your loss;
面临失去，决心从头再来而绝口不提自己的损失;
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";
身上已一无所有，唯存意志在高喊“顶住”;
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
如果你跟平民交谈而不变谦虚之态，
Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch;
亦或与王侯散步而不露谄媚之颜;
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
如果敌友都无法对你造成伤害;
If all men count with you, but none too much;
如果众人对你信赖有加却不过分依赖;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run -
如果你能惜时如金利用每一分钟不可追回的光阴;
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
那么，你的修为就会如天地般博大，并拥有了属于自己的世界，
And - which is more - you'll be a Man my son!
更重要的是：孩子，你成为了真正顶天立地之人!
