If by life you were deceived...

It’s a poem written by the Russian poet Pushkin. When I was in junior school, I read it by chance and loved it immediately. At that time,I was a little upset.(When I looked back on those days,of course you know,it's not a big deal,just some teenager issues.) It seemed like everything didn't go well.I wondered why these things kept happening to me.It was frustrating.At one time, I thought things wouldn't be better. But this poem inspired me a lot and made me stay positive. I even wrote it down and shared it with my best friend.
I still love it nowadays.And I start to believe that everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end. ... life does not put things in front of you that you are unable to handle. There's always hope.You just gotta keep going and hope for the best.


The original Russian version:

Если жизнь тебя обманет...
(1825) А.C. Пушкин.

Если жизнь тебя обманет,
Не печалься, не сердись!
В день уныниясмирись:
День веселья, верь, настанет.

Сердце в будущем живет;
Настоящее уныло:
Все мгновенно, все пройдет;
Что пройдет, то будет мило.

English Version:

If by life you were deceived...
(1825) Pushkin

If by life you were deceived,
Don't be dismal, don't be wild!
In the day of grief, be mild
Merry days will come, believe.

Heart is living in tomorrow;
Present is dejected here;
In a moment, passes sorrow;
That which passes will be dear.


Chinese Version:

假如生活欺騙了你...
(1825) 普希金

假如生活欺騙了你,
不要悲傷,不要心急!
憂郁的日子需要鎮靜,
快樂的日子將會來臨.

心永遠向往著未來,
現在卻常是憂郁,
一切都是瞬息,一切都將會過去,
而那過去了的,就會成為親切的懷念!
