Rudyard Kipling Poems
- Si
Si tu peux garder la tête quand tout autour de toi
Perdez le leur et vous en blâmez;
Si tu peux te faire confiance quand tous les hommes doutent de toi,
Mais tenez également compte de leurs doutes: ... - Wenn
Wenn du deinen Kopf behalten kannst, wenn alles um dich herum ist
Verlieren ihre und beschuldigen Sie;
Wenn Sie sich selbst vertrauen können, wenn alle Männer an Ihnen zweifeln,
Aber berücksichtigen Sie auch ihre Zweifel: ... - Si
Si puedes mantener la cabeza cuando se trata de ti
Están perdiendo la suya y te echan la culpa a ti;
Si puedes confiar en ti mismo cuando todos los hombres dudan de ti,
Pero tenga en cuenta también sus dudas: ... - Un Dévouement
Ma nouvelle taille de pierre de taille prend la lumière
Où cramoisi-blanc les fenêtres s'embrasent;
Par mon propre travail, avant la nuit,
Grand surveillant, je fais ma prière. ... - Eine Widmung
Mein neu geschnittener Quader nimmt das Licht
Wo purpurrot die Fenster flackern;
Durch meine eigene Arbeit vor der Nacht,
Großer Aufseher, ich bete. ...
