Full Transcript

Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll, I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.

Traducao (Portugues)

Da noite que me cobre, Negra como um poço de polo a polo, Agradeço aos deuses que possam existir Pela minha alma inconquistável. Nas garras cruéis das circunstâncias Não recuei nem gritei. Sob os golpes do acaso Minha cabeça está ensanguentada, mas erguida. Não importa quão estreita a passagem, Quão cheia de castigos a sentença, Eu sou o dono do meu destino, Eu sou o capitão da minha alma.
