道格拉斯·麦克阿瑟这样说：
Build me a son, O Lord,
塑造我的儿子，主啊，
who will be strong enough to know when he is weak,
使他足够坚强，可以认识到自己的软弱，
and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid:

One who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat,
使他成为一个败不馁、胜不骄的人，
and humble and gentle in victory.
在胜利中谦逊而温和。
Build me a son whose wishbone will not be where his backbone should be;
恳求雕塑我的儿子，使他不致空有理想而缺乏毅力；
a son who will know Thee and that to know himself is the foundation stone of knowledge.
引导他认识你，同时又明白，认识自我乃是真知的基石。
Lead him,I pray,not in the path of case and comfort,
我祈祷，愿你引导他不求安逸舒适，
but under the stress and spur of difficulties and challenge.
经过压力、艰难和挑战，
Here let him learn to stand up in the storm;
学会在风暴中挺身站立，
here let him learn compassion for those who fail.

Build me a son whose heart will be clean,
求你塑造我的儿子，使他心灵纯洁，
whose goal will be high;
目标远大；
a son who will master himself before he seeks to master other men;
使他在指挥别人之前，懂得先驾驭自己；
one who will learn to laugh,
让他知道去欢笑，
yet never forget how to wcet;
也不要忘记如何哭泣；
one who will reach into the future,
一个将走向未来的人，
yet never forget the past.
但永远不要忘记过去。
And after all these things are his，
当他拥有了以上一切，
add，I pray,enough of a sense of humor,
我还要祈求赐足他足够的幽默感，
so that he may always be serious,
使他认真严肃，
yet never take himself too seriously,
却不至于过分苛求自己，
Give him humility,
恳求您赐他谦卑，
so that he may always remember the simplicity of true greatness,
使他永远牢记，真伟大中之平凡，
the open mind of true wisdom,
真智慧中之豁达，
and the meekness of true strength.
真勇猛中之温柔。
Then I,his father,will dare to whisper,"I have not lived in vain."
如此，我这做父亲的，才敢低声说：“我没有虚度此生。”
