玛吉·史密斯女爵 | 朗读诗歌《道义》

We cannot kindle when we will 

The fire which in the heart resides; 

The spirit bloweth and is still, 

In mystery our soul abides. 

But tasks in hours of insight will'd 

Can be through hours of gloom fulfill'd. 

内心深处之火

非人意可点燃，

精神喷薄又静止，

灵魂在神秘里常驻。

但任务时间会在悉心洞察

的漫漫黑暗中实现。

With aching hands and bleeding feet 

We dig and heap, lay stone on stone; 

We bear the burden and the heat 

Of the long day, and wish 'twere done. 

Not till the hours of light return, 

All we have built do we discern. 

虽手脚磨破，血流不止

挖堆砌填却从未停歇

炎日漫漫，辛劳默默承受

只愿早日完成大工。

待黎明之光划破夜空，

我们将见证这成就。
