If by Rudyard Kipling - Read by Sir Michael Caine
If by Rudyard Kipling - Read by Sir Michael Caine Hotney 5 Streams • 2 years ago

Sir Michael Caine's rendition of his favorite poem, "IF" by Rudyard Kipling. Kindly overlook the missing 20 seconds and focus on the overall meaning of this eternal verse. It brings together all the virtues of life: perseverance, humility, and integrity, in a way as to create the ultimate dose of inspiration.

If— by RUDYARD KIPLING

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;
If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!

Oh Captain! My Captain! - Walt Whitman (Powerful Life Poetry)
Oh Captain! My Captain! - Walt Whitman (Powerful Life Poetry) Hotney 9 Streams • 2 years ago

Read by Doug Barron
Music by Hammock
-
Walt Whitman is America’s world poet - a successor to Homer, Virgil, Dante, and Shakespeare.

O Captain ! My Captain! is an elegy or mourning poem with the theme that every victory comes with a price.

Whitman wrote this poem to honour Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States of America. Lincoln successfully led his nation through the turmoil of the civil war and brought an end to slavery in America.

The speaker states that though the ship (United States) has braved the tough storm of civil war, it has lost its Captain (Abraham Lincoln). The speaker is torn between relief and despair.

If I Could Tell You by W.H. Auden
If I Could Tell You by W.H. Auden Hotney 5 Streams • 2 years ago

Music: Jóhann Jóhannsson - Flight From The City

Speaker: Tom O' Bedlam (SpokenVerse)

Full poem:
Time will say nothing but I told you so,
Time only knows the price we have to pay;
If I could tell you I would let you know.

If we should weep when clowns put on their show,
If we should stumble when musicians play,
Time will say nothing but I told you so.

There are no fortunes to be told, although,
Because I love you more than I can say,
If I could tell you I would let you know.

The winds must come from somewhere when they blow,
There must be reasons why the leaves decay;
Time will say nothing but I told you so.

Perhaps the roses really want to grow,
The vision seriously intends to stay;
If I could tell you I would let you know.

Suppose all the lions get up and go,
And all the brooks and soldiers run away;
Will time say nothing but I told you so?
If I could tell you I would let you know.

there’s a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I’m too tough for him,
I say, stay in there, I’m not going
to let anybody see
you.

there’s a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I pour whiskey on him and inhale
cigarette smoke
and the whores and the bartenders
and the grocery clerks
never know that
he’s
in there.

there’s a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I’m too tough for him,
I say,
stay down, do you want to mess
me up?
you want to screw up the
works?
you want to blow my book sales in
Europe?

there’s a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I’m too clever, I only let him out
at night sometimes
when everybody’s asleep.
I say, I know that you’re there,
so don’t be
sad.

then I put him back,
but he’s singing a little
in there, I haven’t quite let him
die
and we sleep together like
that
with our
secret pact
and it’s nice enough to
make a man
weep, but I don’t
weep, do
you?

Mawlana Jalaluddin Rumi, the 13th century mystic poet, was truly one of the most passionate and profound poets in history. Now, today his presence still remains strong, due in part to how his words seem to drip of the divine, and startle a profound remembrance that links all back to the Soul-Essence.

Voice : Md Taufikur Rahman
Music: Armand Amar

Transcription:

When I die
When my coffin
is being taken out
You must never think
I am missing this world

Don’t shed any tears
Don’t lament or
Feel sorry
I’m not falling
into a monster’s abyss

When you see
My corpse is being carried
Don’t cry for my leaving
I’m not leaving
I’m arriving at eternal love

When you leave me
in the grave
Don’t say goodbye
Remember a grave is
only a curtain
for the paradise behind

You’ll only see me
Descending into a grave
Now watch me rise
How can there be an end
When the sun sets or
the moon goes down

It looks like the end
It seems like a sunset
But in reality it is a dawn
When the grave locks you up
that is when your soul is freed

Have you ever seen
a seed fallen to earth
not rise with a new life
Why should you doubt the rise
of a seed named human

Have you ever seen
a bucket lowered into a well
coming back empty
Why lament for a soul
When it can come back
like Joseph from the well

When for the last time
you close your mouth
Your words and soul
will belong to the world of
no place no time.

Ebro Darden has been a polarizing figure in the hip hop community for years, known for his gatekeeping ways and controversial interviews on Hot 97. Whether it’s challenging younger artists like Lil Uzi Vert and Kodak Black or criticizing freestyles, Ebro's confrontational style often sparks heated moments. But in recent years, has he learned from his past mistakes and shifted his approach? 🤔

In this video, we break down some unforgettable moments where Ebro was checked for his behavior, from his confrontations with artists like Saweetie and Stro to his viral clash with Kodak Black. Plus, we explore how Ebro has evolved over time, now hosting Apple Music's The Ebro Show and taking a more respectful tone with rising stars like Doechii. 🌟

Join us as we dive deep into Ebro's journey—from disrespectful radio host to maybe a more reflective, and mature figure in hip hop media. 📈
