Forget your sorrow
-forget your sorrow
-just if you love yourself!
-is there any sorrow?
-that cannot dance?
-to the songs of joy!
-And do you find any darkness?
-that cannot obey
-the call of the tiny light?
indeed i look round the globe
and i have not seen
so forget your sorrow
agony built on the altar
of life's adversities
shall take its bow
-when resilience arms of courage
-refuses to stop working with rage
-on the barns of fulfillment
-and i say again,
-forget your your sorrow
-there is never a terrible night
-without an awesome dawn!
