He knows he has wings

Victor Hugo

What matter it though life uncertain be to all?何必去管它，人生总是无定，

What though its goal be never reached? 壮志难成又有什么关系，

What though it fall and flee― 又何必计较你蹉跌并败奔——

Have we not each a soul? 我们岂不是各自有灵魂？

Be like the bird that on a bough too frail 要像那鸟儿在柔弱的枝梢，

To bear him gaily swings 经不起它欢乐地跳跃；

He carols though the slender branches fail― 虽然那细枝折断了它仍歌唱——

He knows he has wings! 因为它知道自己有翅膀！
