HAMLET:

Mabuhay ba, o hindi, iyan ang katanungan: To be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
Kung higit na marangal isipin ang gawang magtiis The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Sa mga palaso ng karumal-dumal na kapalaran Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep;
O ang lumabang tahasan sa dagat ng dusa No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
Upang matapos na'ng lahat. Ang mamatay–
That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation
paghimbing–
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep;
Wala na; at sa paghimbing na yaon, magwawakas To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub;
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
Ang mga kapaitan at ang libu-libong sindak When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Na pamana sa laman. Isang kaganapan ‘yong Must give us pause: there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life;
Mahihiling nang lubusan. Mamatay–humimbing. For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
The oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,
Humimbing–baka managinip; ay, 'yon ang salabit!
The pangs of despised love, the law's delay,
Dahil sa himbing ng kamatayan, ang baka The insolence of office and the spurns
mapanaginip That patient merit of the unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
Pagkatapos mahubad ang pinapasang katawan, With a bare bodkin? who would fardels bear,
Kailangan ding pangambahan. Masasabi ngang To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
Malaking kapahamakan kapag humaba ang buhay. The undiscover'd country from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will
Dahil sino'ng susuong sa dagok at haplit ng panahon,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Sa lupit ng maniniil, pagdusta sa marangal, Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all;
Kirot ng sinawing pag-ibig, kupad ng batas, And thus the native hue of resolution
Kaimbian ng nanunungkulan, at mga pagtatakwil Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pith and moment
Na mapakumbabang binabata nang hindi dapat, With this regard their currents turn awry,
And lose the name of action.—Soft you now!
Samantalang kaya naman niyang makalaya sa lahat
The fair Ophelia! Nymph, in thy orisons
Sa tulong ng isang punyal? Sino'ng magtitiis, Be all my sins remember'd.
Magpapakahirap sa patang-pata nang buhay
Kung hindi lang takot sa kung-ano sa ibayo ng
kamatayan–
Ang di-unawang bayan, na hindi pa
napanggagalingan
Ng sinumang manlalakbay–na lumilito sa kalooban,
At nagtutulak sa 'ting manatili sa dusang dinaranas
Kaysa naman sumagupa sa hindi pa natin
nawawawaan?
Kung kaya’t naduduwag tayo sa banta ng budhi,
At namumutla sa mapusyaw na lilim ng pagmumuni
Ang likas na kulay sa pisngi ng nabuo nang isip,
At kahit pagbabalak ng mga dakilang hangarin,
Dahil sa kahuhunos-dili, natutungo sa iba
At nawawalang-katuparan.
