Translation of "Look on my works, ye Mighty" (Standalone)

Share & Bookmark
Original: Ozymandias Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed. And on the pedestal these words appear: “My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!” Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.

'Ozymandias. Half submerged lies a broken image whose frown and twisted lip and sneer of cold command say that its maker read well that one’s emotions which survive still, imprinted on these dead things, the hand that mocked them and the heart that fed. And visible on the platform are the words: My name is Ozymandias the ruler of rulers. See, o strong ones, my works, and despair! Nothing besides remains. Around the decay of that great ruin the sands stretch far away, alone, flat, boundless, and desolate.'
