Happiness is a state of mind One can get it by only being kind You may not get it in riches But may find living near ditches You can’t get happiness by enjoying yourself But you can get it by extending others help Real Happiness lies in contentment It does not lie in unethical merriment There is enough for every one’s need But not for everybody’s greed You should respect your neighbour And help him with your possible labour Our life on earth is a mystery We should find a page in history All of us will inevitably go far away Only our good things will eternally stay We should win some victory for humanity Only that makes us go near divinity We may not be great men of charity But on the poor and the needy we should take pity

WHAT IS REAL HAPPINESS?
Happiness is a state of mind One can get it by only being kind You may not get it in riches But may find living near ditches You can’t get happiness by enjoying yourself But you can get it by extending others help Real Happiness lies in contentment It does not lie in unethical merriment There is enough for every one’s need But not for everybody’s greed You should respect your neighbour And help him with your possible labour Our life on earth is a mystery We should find a page in history All of us will inevitably go far away Only our good things will eternally stay We should win some victory for humanity Only that makes us go near divinity We may not be great men of charity But on the poor and the needy we should take pity
