Asked by every man
At one time or another.
這是個古老的問題,
每個人都會問,
在此時或彼刻。
Though he looks into a mirror
And recognizes his own face,
Though he knows his own name
And age and history,
Still he wonders, deep down,
Who am I?
盡管他往鏡子裡瞧,
認出了自己的臉,
盡管他清楚自己的姓名、
年齡和生平,
他仍深深疑惑,
我是誰?
Am I a giant among men,
Master of all I survey,
Or an ineffectualpygmy
Who clumsily blocks his own way?
Am I the self-assured gentleman
With a winning style,
The natural born leader
Who makes friends instantly,
Or a frightened heart
Tiptoeing among strangers,
Who, behind a frozen smile, trembles
Like a little boy lost in a dark forest?
Most of us yearn to be one,
But fear we are the other.
我是人中豪傑?
樣樣皆能?
抑或卑微無能之輩,
笨拙愚魯,自堵去路?
我是個自信的紳士,
一派赢家風範?
天生的領導者,
和他人一拍即合,朋友滿天下?
或是有着一顆驚恐的心,
在陌生的人群中小心行走,
躲在僵硬的笑臉背後顫抖,
像迷失在黑暗森林裡的小男孩?
我們中的大多數人渴望成功,
卻又懼怕失敗。
Yet we can be.
Those who cultivate
Their natural instincts,
Who set their sights
On the good, the admirable, the excellent,
And believe they can achieve it
Will find their confidence rewarded
And in the process,
They discover the true identity
Of him who looks back from the mirror.
然而,我們可以成功。
那些發展
自身天性的人,
他們将視線
投向美善、可敬、卓越的一切,
并相信自己可以成功,
他們的信心将獲得回報。
而在此過程中,
當他們回望鏡中,他們
發覺了自己的真實身份。
