Riches I hold in light esteem

Riches I hold in light esteem
And Love I laugh to scorn
And lust of Fame was but a dream
That vanished with the morn–

And if I pray, the only prayer
That moves my lips for me
Is–"Leave the heart that now I bear
And give me liberty."

Yes, as my swift days near their goal
'Tis all that I implore
Through life and death, a chainless soul
With courage to endure!

越来越喜欢这个Yorkshire姑娘了， 早熟啊。。。

最近看的一部电视的主题曲由这个改变，故事讲的是美国vulture capital 进军泡沫破灭之后的日本进行低价买收的资本大战的故事，但讽刺的是用了上面的诗做主题曲。

这是我最喜欢的诗了。

有个日本唱歌的把它普上曲了， 呵呵 不愿意改变对该诗原有印象的不要点：
