Más allá de la noche que me envuelve,
negra como un pozo insondable,
doy gracias al dios que fuere,
por mi alma inconquistable.

Dal profondo della notte che mi avvolge
buia come il pozzo più profondo che va da un polo all'altro,
ringrazio qualunque dio esista
per l'indomabile anima mia.
Nella feroce morsa delle circostanze
non mi sono tirato indietro né ho gridato per l'angoscia.
Sotto i colpi d'ascia della sorte
il mio capo è sanguinante, ma indomito.
Oltre questo luogo di collera e lacrime
incombe solo l'Orrore delle ombre
eppure la minaccia degli anni
mi trova, e mi troverà, senza paura.
Non importa quanto sia stretta la porta,
quanto piena di castighi la vita.
Io sono il padrone del mio destino:
io sono il capitano della mia anima.
William Ernest Henley

All'età di 12 anni, Henley rimase vittima della tubercolosi. Nonostante ciò, riuscì a continuare i suoi studi e a tentare una carriera giornalistica a Londra. Il suo lavoro, però, fu interrotto continuamente dalla grave patologia, che lo costrinse all'amputazione di una gamba per soppravvivere. Henley non si scoraggiò e continuò a vivere per circa 30 anni con una protesi artificiale, fino all'età di 53 anni.
La poesia "Invictus" fu scritta proprio sul letto di un ospedale:
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.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
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.
I liked the Invictus College Jacket on sale this weekend. Comes in many colors and with a HUD for t shirt and headphone options. So educational!
