two roads diverged in a yellow wood

and sorry i could not travel both

and be one traveler long i stood

and looked down one as far as i could

to where it bent in the undergrowth

then took the other just as fair

and having perhaps the better claim

because it was grassy and wanted wear

though as for that, the passing there

had worn them about really the same

and both that morning equally lay

in leaves no step had trodden black

oh, i kept the first for another day

yet, knowing how how way leads onto way

i doubted if i should ever come back

i shall be telling this with a sigh

somewher ages and ages hence

two roads diverged in a wood

and i took the one less traveled by

and that has made all the difference.
