🔰Rudyard Kipling's 'If' read LIVE by OÁC - ar.de.el.en.es.fr.it.pt.ru sub
His poem, Yves, is in fact an exhortation to qualities sometimes heroic
That a man can be made to develop in happiness as in injustice.
Prepare yourself for the pain too.
If you can wait and not be tired of waiting,
or to be lied to, don't accept to lie,
Or to be hated, do not accept to be hated.
And again, you don't look so good, you don't look so wise.
If you can dream and not make your master dream,
If you can think and not make think your reign,
If you can meet the triumph and the disaster,
And treat these two imposters the same way,
If you can hold on to hear the truth that you have said,
tournée by Nath to make a trap for fools,
Or look at the things you've given to your life,
that were burned, and build them with the same tools,
If you can make a pin of all your victories,
and risking it on a single kick,
And lose, and return to your beginnings,
And never breathe a word about your loss,
If you can force your heart and your nerves and your tendons
to serve your turn well after they're gone,
And so wait when there's nothing in you
Except the will that tells them to wait,
If you can talk to the crowd
and keep your virtue,
or march with the kings,
or lose the touch of the commune,
If the enemies and the friends you love can't hurt you,
If all men count on you,
But not too much.
If you can fill the moment without pardon
with 60 seconds of distance,
- What?
Votre est l'Terre, is the land of your dreams.
And all that's in it,
And well more.
You will be a man.
My son.
