Success Is Counted Sweetest
   
    Success is counted sweetest
    By those who ne‘er succeed
    To comprehened a nectar
    Requires sorest need.
   
    Not one of all the purple host
    Who took the flag tody
    Can tell the definition,
    So clear, of victory,
   
    As he, defeated, dying,
    On whose forbidden ear
    The distant strains of triumph
    Break, agonized and clear.
   
    成功的含義
   
    從未成功的人們
    最懂得成功的甜美.
    惟有極度的渴求
    方能體會(huì)甘露的滋味。
   
    身穿紫服的王者之師
    今日雖高揚(yáng)凱旗
    卻無一人能把勝利的
    含義，說清道明。
   
    戰(zhàn)敗者奄奄一息，
    凱樂在遠(yuǎn)處奏響，
    沖破阻隔，飛到他的
    耳際，悲痛而嘹亮。
