I do not choose to be a common person.拒绝平庸
It is my right to be uncommon - if I can.志在非凡
I seek opportunity - not security.待机冲天,不为瓦全
I do not wish to be a kept citizen,不做良民
humbled and dulled by having the state look after me.庸碌我耻
I want to take the calculated risk,深谋赴险
to dream and to build,梦想创造
to fail and to succeed.成败无怨
I refuse to barter incentive for a dole;拒绝施舍
I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence;渴望挑战
the thrill of fulfillment to the stale calm of Utopia.自驱前行
I will not trade my freedom for beneficence自由永葆
nor my dignity for a handout.尊严持命
I will never cower before any master无惧
nor bend to any threat.不屈
It is my heritage to stand erect, proud, and unafraid;天生英雄
to think and act for myself;践行我心
to enjoy the benefit of my creations;享受阳光
and to face the world boldly直面世界
and say: This, with God's help, I have done.苍天助我,夙愿实现。 |
