Do the following:  
Blow away the sad thought,  
Let the last tear fall,  
Count to twenty.  

Then open the window,  
The one that looks out onto the flight of sparrows,  
Look for the flickering light up ahead  
(avoid the shadows that linger behind).  

Upon finding it, place it inside your chest in such a way,  
That it can be seen from the outside.  

Now add a pinch of poetry,  
The kind that passes us by every day  
And goes unnoticed;  

Increase the brightness,  
With all the intensity of a smile.  

Happiness is your limit,  
And paradise is yours to create.
