            Lost and Gain 失与得

When I compare

What I have lost with what I have gained,

What I have missed with what attained,

Little room do I find for pride.

I am aware

How many days have been idly spent;

like an arrow the good indent

Has fallen short or been turned aside.

But who shall dare

To measure loss and gain in this wise?

Defeat may be victory in disguise;

The lowest ebb is the turn of the tide.

当我对比

我所得到的与所失去的

我所取得的与所放弃的

当我在得与失，

取与舍之间进行对比时

我觉得这没有什么值得骄傲。

我意识到

我蹉跎了许多的岁月，

美好的意向正如一只箭

从中途跌落下来或者抛向一旁。

可是谁敢

用这种方式衡量得失？

失败是成功隐居的故乡，

当人无路可走之时就会柳暗花明。
