  Thanks for finding the original poem !
  If you ask me, it's a pity Tennyson is no longer from our world. I'm sure he would have wrote a better text for the skyfall song than what we were treated with with Adele's dumb lyrics. :))

  We are not now that strength which in old days
  
  Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;
  
  One equal temper of heroic hearts,
  
  Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
  
  To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
