See It Through

By Edgar Albert Guest

作者：［美］埃德加·艾·盖斯特

When you're up against a trouble,

当你遭遇困境，

Meet it squarely, face to face;

勇敢地直面它；

Lift your chin and set your shoulders,

扬起下巴，挺起肩膀，

Plant your feet and take a brace.

站稳脚跟，做好准备。

When it's vain to try to dodge it,

当逃避已无济于事，

Do the best that you can do;

尽你所能去做；

You may fail, but you may conquer,

你可能会失败，但也可能会征服。

Black may be the clouds about you

你周围或许乌云密布，

And your future may seem grim,

未来可能看似黯淡，

But don't let your nerve desert you;

但不要丧失勇气；

Keep yourself in fighting trim.

保持战斗状态。

If the worst is bound to happen,

如果最坏的情况注定要发生，

Spite of all that you can do,

尽管你已竭尽全力，

Running from it will not save you,

逃避也无法拯救你，

See it through!

坚持到底！

Even hope may seem but futile,

即使希望似乎也很渺茫，

When with troubles you're beset,

当你被麻烦困扰时，

But remember you are facing

但要记住你所面对的，

Just what other men have met.

正是其他人也曾遇到过的。

You may fail, but fall still fighting;

你可能会失败，但倒下也要继续战斗；

Don't give up, whatever you do;

无论做什么都不要放弃；

Eyes front, head high to the finish.

目光向前，高昂着头直到终点。

See it through!

坚持到底！
