Don't Be Sad, Don't Be Angry, If

My Whole Life Has Been Pledged To This Meeting With You.

I Want To Understand You, I Study Your Obscure Language.

Don't Be Sad, Don't Be Angry, If Life Deceives You! Submit To Your Grief - Your Time For Joy Will Come, Believe Me.

Try To Be Forgotten. Go Live In The Country. Stay In Mourning For Two Years, Then Remarry, But Choose Somebody Decent.

Sad That Our Finest Aspiration, Our Freshest Dreams And Meditations, In Swift Succession Should Decay, Like Autumn Leaves That Rot Away.
