Answer 1

Algunos dicen que las últimas palabras de Lord Byron fueron "he tenido días peores". Seguramente esta historia no es cierta, pero siempre pienso en esa cita cuando las cosas van mal.

Answer 3

El soñar el sueño imposible ...

Pelear ... el enemigo invencible ... Para llevar ... con el dolor insoportable ... Para correr ... donde los valientes no se atreven a ir ...

Hacer el bien ... al imposible mal.. El amor ... puro y casto de lejos ... Para tratar de ... cuando tienes los brazos demasiado cansados ...

Este es mi deseo de seguir la estrella No importa como desesperado, no importa que lejos

Alcanzar... la estrella inalcanzable..

en íngles Sí -------------------------------------------------------

To dream ... the impossible dream ...

To fight ... the unbeatable foe ... To bear ... with unbearable sorrow ... To run ... where the brave dare not go ...

To right ... the unrightable wrong ... To love ... pure and chaste from afar ... To try ... when your arms are too weary ...

This is my quest ... to follow that star No matter how hopeless, no matter how far

To reach ... the unreachable star ...
