Answer:

"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my work, ye Mighty, and despair!"

Explanation:

The irony in Ozymandias pivots on these lines: "My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my work, ye Mighty, and despair!" Ozymandias, once a powerful Egyptian tyrant, had a huge statue built of himself and inscribed it with those lines, which now is all shattered.
