    Time and tide wait for no one

    Hi guys,

    I am new and this is a great community btw! Recently I have found the text that you can see here: dropbox.com/s/xsrdr1xlxjgiouo/Time%26Tide.jpg?dl=0 and I was wondering which is the translation in english. Also I have seen few variations and I was wondering if it is grammatically correct.

    Thanks!

    You don't need the ยอม

    ไม่เคยคอย is ample. ยอมไม่เคยคอย doesn't sound right.

    The correct English translation is "time and tide wait for no man"

    I met a traveller from an antique land,
    Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
    Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,
    Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
    And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
    Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
    Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
    The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
    And on the pedestal, these words appear:
    My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
    Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
    Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
    Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
    The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

    so I am right for the เวลา และ กระแสน้ำ ย่อมไม่เคยคอยใคร??

    ถึงเวลา และสายน้ำ ไม่รอเรา แต่สุดท้าย ปลายทางของเราคือที่เดียวกัน

    Hi guys thanks for all the answers!

    1. Corvaccio means "Bad crow" in Italian. It has no political connotations. I just picked it because I was a huge fan of "The crow" the comics/movie
    2.ChalkyDee thanks for the correction! Would you mind to write the full correct sentence so I can copy paste it?
