►Success Is Counted Sweetest
By Emily Dickson
Success is counted sweetest
By those who ne’er succeed.
To comprehend a nectar
Requires sorest need.

Not one of all the purple host
Who took the flag to-day
Can tell the definition,
So clear, of victory

As he，defeated，dying，
On whose forbidden ear
The distant strains of triumph
Burst agonized and clear!

成功的滋味最甜

作者：艾米莉·狄金森

成功的滋味最甜
对未曾成功的人而言
想体会甘露的美味
需要通彻心扉的欲念

没有一位贵人达官
在当下耀武扬威之际
能够明确的定义
胜利的真正含义

只有奄奄一息的输家
耳朵已经听不见
那遥远的凯旋乐音
飞扬懊恼而清醒！
