Though I myself vaunt not my ancestry,

I am the son of the eagle, king of birds.

In the egg my wing feathers grew;

in the years of my childhood I dwelt in the eyrie;

in the years of my youth I guarded its entrance;

in the years of my manhood I cleft the vault of heaven.

Though the sky be immense I know not fear;

though the valleys of the earth be narrow I tremble not.

Though I myself vaunt not my ancestry,

I am the son of the great shimmering fish.

In my mother’s belly I rolled my golden eye;

in the years of my childhood I dwelt with the fry;

in the years of my youth I led the school;

in the years of my manhood I circled the margins of the lake.

Though the waves rage fiercely I know not fear;

though the nets and the hooks be many I tremble not.
