【赫临译笔】如果 - 心云驛站

                                                                           如果

                                                                              迈克．杰克逊的墓志铭

                                                                        荷叶/译

   如果你周围的人都失去理智并把原因归咎于你时，你仍能保持头脑冷静;

   如果所有人都怀疑你，你却能保持自信而且理解别人的怀疑;

   如果你能不知厌倦地等待,或者遭人诽谤却不经营谎言; 遭人忌恨，却不让忌恨的心情控制自己; 也不装腔作势，言过其辞;

   如果你有梦想，却不让梦想成为你的主宰;

   如果你能思考，却不使思想成为你的人生目标;

   如果你遇到胜利和灾难，还是能心态平和地对待这两个骗子;

   如果你能容忍，你所说的真话被无赖弯曲，去设置陷井欺骗傻瓜; 或者看着你终身奋斗创造的局面破碎，却能俯下身去用破败不堪地工具将它重建;

   如果你能把所有的成功集结起来，并敢于孤注一掷; 失败后，从头再来，只字不提自己的损失;

   如果你的心脏神经和肌腱都已不在，你还能让他们发挥作用; 因此要坚持住，当你已一无所有，只有意志在高呼“要坚持住”;

   如果你能与公众交谈而不失美德,或者与国王散步而不失常态;

   如果无论是仇敌还是挚友都不能把你伤害;

   如果所有的人都信赖你却不过度;

   如果你能在不饶人的岁月中，分分秒秒都在奔跑。

   你的心胸是整个世界并包括世界上的一切。

   请问谁人能更棒，孩子，你就是个真正的男子汉！

IF you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;

IF you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too;

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,

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

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

And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;

If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two impostors just the same;

If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,

Or watch the things you gave your life to broken, And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools;
　
If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,

And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breathe a word about your loss;

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone,

And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on";

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,

Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch;

If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;

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

If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run -
