When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you are trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but do not quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out.
Don't give up though the pace seems slow -
You may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt.
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far.
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit -
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.
当你不尽如意，感觉一切都糟糕透顶，
当你跋涉的道路到处都布满荆棘，
当你身无分文而又债台高筑，
当你想笑而又不得不唉声叹气，
当你被痛苦折磨而又不能解脱，
停下来，如果有必要的话，并不是放弃。
生活原本坎坷，让我们难以想象，
（生活原本坎坷，总是在迂回曲折之中前行，）
正如我们每个人从学习中体会到的，
有许多人本来可以成功却由于
功亏一篑而遭受失败。
坚持下去，哪怕每一步都举步维艰，
只要你敢永往向前，或许下一个路口就会峰回路转。
失败是成功的母亲，
怀疑的乌云背后是银色的光芒。
永远不要说成功离你多么遥远
有时候看似遥远却在蓦然回首之间。
（不要说成功离你多么遥远，
有时候看似遥远却往往就在暮然回首之间，）
因此当你身处危难之时，你要挺住
哪怕一切都糟糕透顶，永不放弃。
