if you can wait and not be tired of waiting
or being lied about don't deal in lies
or being hated don't give way to hating
and yet don't look too good nor talk too wise

if you can dream and not make dreams your master
if you can think and not make thoughts your aim
if you can meet both triumph and disaster
and treat those two impostors just the same

if you can fill the unforgiving minute
with sixty seconds worth of distance run -
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it
and - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
