William Ernest Henley was an influential English poet, perhaps best known for his poem “Invictus” written in 1875.
-
Full Poem:
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.
Nelson Mandela, one of the greatest mortal beings & immortal souls, once said, he survived 27 dark years of imprisonment by often reciting this ever-inspiring poem.
Side note. The same Nelso Mandela was the co-founder of "uMkhonto we Sizwe"
@@rolandkleiner1573 what is it?
@@mandya6697 uMkhonto we Sizwe (Xhosa pronunciation: [uˈmkʰonto we ˈsizwe], meaning "Spear of the Nation"; abbreviated MK) was the armed wing of the African National Congress (ANC), co-founded by Nelson Mandela in the wake of the Sharpeville massacre. Its mission was to fight against the South African government.

@starflowergames unfortunately in this day and age being a communist and terrorist is a good thing(in the world's eyes)
Best Poem, ever. "I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul." has become my personal mantra.
This poetry hit me like a ton of bricks as a child. When I lost my son I had Invictus tattooed on my hand to remind me.
I am unconquerable.
Eight years later he still battles with meth addiction but he’s been coming by every day to reunite with me. I never got the chance to tell him that we lost his mother to her addiction when he was one and she put us through absolute hell. Now he’s old enough, he’s not that 15-year-old that ran away so long ago. He cried when I told him what the tattoo meant... that meant everything to me.
Prayers to you beautiful soul 🙏
I lost my brother to an over dose February 29, 2020. Right before Covid-19 hit. His life was so dark and eyes looked so lifeless. I miss his presence
@@TheButterflyliz I'm sorry for your loss
@@ofarag Thank you
He's gonna bounce back.
By your words, I feel he's trying harder to be the best son you could've ever imagined.
Hang in there.
Dawn will descend before you know it.
I am the captain of my soul, goosebumps all over

Moby Dick
Each year this is the first thing I teach my High School Language students...
Khalil Kingsley good choice
This and If by Rudyard Kipling are probably the best poems I've ever read
I would add The Poison Tree to this list.
And How did you die? by Edmond Vance Cooke
Defeat, My deafeat - Khalil Gibran
Desiderata by Max Ehrmann as well
What do you think of Desiderata?
“ I thank whatever gods there maybe, for my unconquerable soul”
This. This is the line that hits me first. With a covert narcissist as a mother and a psychopath as a father. I have made it out without their defects or attitude towards the world. With out the victim mentality, without entitlement. With no contempt for those that remind me of parents, just a quick side step and disregard. There is a lot of trama, a lot of healing to go. However, I cherish my bruised and broken, yet still unconquered soul.
IF, INVICTUS, OH CAPTAIN MY CAPTAUN...I shall forever remember these immortal poems...every word so inspirational...
most humbling poem ever
written thankyou for sharing these most beautiful empowering words of a true Master

True..So bold a Soul to be... !
Thanks for sharing this Poem.
My life now feels like a complete graveyard of buried hopes, just as Anne would say. I felt so hopeless after I failed in so many of my dreams, had been in bed helpless for almost two days but I didn't want to end up here. I know I have to do something, I have to change.
I hope I'd get through this depressing days of my life. I will work through it. I will try.
I hope to come back here one day and finally say I made it.
I wish for no more gloomy sundays in afternoons.
we need more poems with Peter Baker voice ♥ plz
Here chance means opportunity to flourish in life with various excellences in life.The poet is probably losing them in the difficulties or adversities of his life.But,even being severed in fate, he
decides not to give up.
"My head is bloody but unbowed." awesome...
“My soul is from elsewhere, I'm sure of that, and I intend to end up there.”
― Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi
This poem . It’s what stops me from thinking of suicide being the solution. It kept me alive.
An absolute gem of a poem and my favorite. It brought tears to my eyes probably because of the narration. i would try to find this poem and frame it for future reference. It is like having battle ready armour for the defence and offence of life.
Waited so long so this poem to be done! Thanks alot guys

Invictus is Latin for “unconquered.” The speaker in the poem proclaims his strength in the face of adversity: ... My head is bloody, but unbowed....
I believe in this poem because it has proven to be so worthwhile to me.

Out of the night that covers me,

For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.

My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears

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, Optimus Prime send this message across the universe. He said after reciting the poem.
Please upload more poems.
This narrator is reading the poem 10 seconds after waking up in the morning.
We decided who we serve
Can you make a video on If by Rudyard Kipling with your narration.. please...
Yes
This poem is about holding on to your dreams and literally karate kicking and chopping anyway who tries to mock your dreams or who says your dreams are nothing but goats milk
One of my favorites but not without contradictions. If you believe in determinism then the end isn't quite as poetic.
I'm looking for a Invictus motivational video that had different readings. I can't seem to find it.

I wouldn't have said such drivel were I to be made poet laureate of the world.
Sounds macho but not accurate! A captain of a ship is the master of what he can control, BUT, the forces of nature determine his ultimate destiny. GOD is ultimately in control, ours is to align ourselves to the glory of His purposes.
the poem is an expression
it doesn't mean to say we are in full control of everything
it means to say we have to stand firm on what we believe in
no matter the circumstance
no to let anyone control our fate
overpower us
but to be its own masters
I want to invite all of my brothers and sisters who read this to read The Book of Mormon: Another Testament of JESUS CHRIST. Thank you
♥️♥️♥️ good 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈❤️🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈❤️🌈😘
No one is master of fate. But Allah... indeed...
Oh my God, your channel is amazing and i would love to thank you
Your channel has really inspired me to start writing my own pieces, hope you can check it out
i would love some honest criticism so thank you once again.
When Rambo recites a poem..
He doesn't sound Christian.
Bitter taste in that Timothy McVeigh recited this as his las words before ececution for the OK city bombing.
The guy reciting this sounds like he’s pushing out the biggest poop
I actually have no words to describe how poorly recited this poem is done... even Morgan Freeman could do tons of a heck lot better... please try to recite it the way it should be
Narration doesn’t work for me.
where the hell do they find these Narrators, they all sound terrible; like they have the flu or something.
wow, I thank God that this poem is not true. lol what a hopeless and depressing way to view the world.
What
You dont make any sense my friend.. This poem is timeless, teaches us to take life's blows and punches and how to keep going forward..
I love poem and i can memorize all poem even a book of poem.thanks.
