This is the day of decision
My Rubicon
This is the day for bravery
Or cowardice,
My Rubicon,
This is the day to go back retreating
Or go forward wryly smiling
To capture my Rome
My Rubicon.

Does my Rome lie forward
My Rubicon?
Or is my Rome behind me
Rubicon?

I look at your waters
And decide to find your source;
Forward, then,
Rubicon.
