Ella Wheeler Wilcox (Элла Уилкокс) I Will Be True I will be true. Mad stars forsake their courses, And, led by reckless meteors, turn away From paths appointed by Eternal Forces. But my fixed heart shall never go astray. Like those calm worlds, whose sun-directed motion Is undisturbed by strife of wind or sea, So shall my swerveless and serene devotion Sweep on forever, loyal unto thee. I will be true. Light barks may be belated, Or turned aside by every breeze at play; While sturdy ships, well manned, and richly freighted, With broad sails flying, anchor safe in bay. Like some firm rock, that, steadfast and unshaken, Stands all unmoved, when ebbing billows flee, So would my heart stand, faithful if forsaken. I will be true, though thou art false to me.
