*獻詞

《獻給你》

When   I   compare

當我比較著

What   I   have   lost   with   what   I   have   gained,

我之所失   與我之所得

What   I   have   missed   with   what   attained,

我之錯失   與我之收穫

Little   room   do   I   find   for   pride.

我發現   自尊便無地自容

I   am   aware

我明瞭到

How   many   days   have   been   idly   spent;

無數個日子已蹉跎而逝

How   like   an   arrow   the   good   intent

如同一只熱切的箭

Has   fallen   short   or   been   turned   aside.

途中便折翼   空中便偏行

But   who   shall   dare

但誰又應該

To   measure   loss   and   gain   in   this   wise?

依此評斷失與得?

Defeat   may   be   victory   in   disguise;

勝仗不過是喬裝的勝利

The   lowest   ebb   is   the   turn   of   the   tide.  

低潮不過是潮汐的輪替
