If you think you are beaten, you are

If you think you dare not, you don’t,

If you like to win, but you think you can’t

It is almost certain you won’t.

如果你觉得你被打败，你就是被打败

如果你觉得你不敢，你就是不敢，

如果你想要赢，但觉得你不行

几乎可以肯定你将不行。

If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost

For out of the world we find,

Success begins with a fellow’s will

It’s all in the state of mind.

如果你觉得你将失败，你已失败

因为我们发现在世界上，

成功从一个人的意志开始

这部都是内心的状态。

If you think you are outclassed, you are

You’ve got to think high to rise,

You’ve got to be sure of yourself before

You can ever win a prize.

如果你觉得你被比下去，你就是被比下去

你得想得高一些才可以提升，

你得先对自己有把握

才有可能赢得奖品

Life’s battles don’t always go

To the stronger or faster man,

But soon or late the man who wins

Is the man WHO THINKS HE CAN!

人生的战斗不是永远倒向

比较强壮或快速的人，

但迟早要胜利的人

是相信他能胜利的人!
