REALITY OF LIFE..!!
REALITY OF LIFE..!!
Laugh, and the world laughs with you
Weep, and you weep alone
Sing, and the hills will answer
Sigh, it is lost on the air.
Can hear echoes to your joyful sound
But shrink when you are in despair
If you have made a mark, world needs you
If confined to yourself, own people hate you.
Rejoice, and people around seek you
Grieve, and they turn and go
They want full measure of all your pleasure
But they do not need your bit of woe.
Be glad, and you have relatives many,
Be sad, and you lose them all,
There are none to decline your nectared wine,
But alone you must drink life's gall.
Feast, your dining halls are crowded
Fast, and the world goes by
YOUR Success world celebrates
Your failure you succumb alone.
There is room in the halls of fame
For a large and lordly train,
But one by one we must all file on
Through the narrow aisles of pain.
