00:00:00.000 | If by Rudyard Kipling

00:00:02.240 | If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you

00:00:09.120 | If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you but make allowance for their doubting too

00:00:14.960 | If you can wait and not be tired by waiting or being lied about don't deal in lies

00:00:21.040 | Or being hated don't give way to hating and yet don't look too good nor talk too wise

00:00:28.960 | If you can dream and not make dreams your master If you can think and not make thoughts your aim

00:00:35.040 | If you can meet with triumph and disaster and treat those two imposters just the same

00:00:42.080 | If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools

00:00:48.400 | Or watch the things you gave your life to broken and stoop and build them up with worn out tools

00:00:57.040 | If you can make one heap of all your winnings and risk it all on one turn of pitch and toss

00:01:02.400 | And lose and start again at your beginnings and never breathe a word about your loss

00:01:09.440 | If you can force your heart to nerve and sinew to serve your turn long after they're gone

00:01:16.400 | And so hold on when there's nothing in you except the will which says to them hold on

00:01:25.840 | If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue or walk with kings nor lose the common touch

00:01:32.000 | If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you if all men count with you but none too much

00:01:39.440 | If you can fill the unforgiving minute with 60 seconds worth of distance run

00:01:45.440 | Yours is the earth and everything that's in it and which is more you'll be a man my son
