Try Again
पुन्हा प्रयत्न करा
'Tis a lesson you should heed,
'तुम्ही धडा घ्यावा,
Try again;
पुन्हा प्रयत्न करा;
If at first you don't succeed,
जर आपण प्रथम यशस्वी होत नसाल तर
Try again;
पुन्हा प्रयत्न करा;
Then your courage should appear,
मग तुमचे धैर्य प्रकट झाले पाहिजे,
For if you will persevere,
कारण जर तुम्ही धीर धरला तर
You will conquer, never fear,
तुम्ही विजयी व्हाल, कधीही घाबरणार नाही,
Try again.पुन्हा प्रयत्न करा.
Once or twice, though you should fail, एकदा किंवा दोनदा, आपण अपयशी ठरले असले तरी,
Try again; पुन्हा प्रयत्न करा;
If you would at last prevail, आपण अंतिम विजय असल्यास,
Try again; पुन्हा प्रयत्न करा;
If we strive 'tis no disgrace जर आम्ही प्रयत्नांची पराकाष्ठा केली तर नाही
Though we do not win the race; जरी आपण शर्यत जिंकत नाही;
What should we do in that case?अशावेळी आपण काय करावे?
Try again.पुन्हा प्रयत्न करा.
If you find your task is hard, आपण आपले कार्य कठीण असल्याचे आढळल्यास,
Try again; पुन्हा प्रयत्न करा;
Time will bring you, your reward, वेळ आपल्याला देईल, आपले बक्षीस,
Try again; पुन्हा प्रयत्न करा;
All that other folk can do, इतर सर्व लोक हे करू शकतात,
Why, with patience, may not you?का, संयमाने, आपण शकत नाही?
Only keep this rule in view.हा नियम फक्त लक्षात ठेवा.
Try again.पुन्हा प्रयत्न करा.
- W. E. Hickson
