A Song

None knows the day that friends must part
    None knows how near is sorrow;
  If there be laughter in your heart,
    Don’t hold it for to-morrow.
  Smile all the smiles you can to-day;
  Grief waits for all along the way.

To-day is ours for joy and mirth;
    We may be sad to-morrow;
  Then let us sing for all we’ve worth,
    Nor give a thought to sorrow.
  None knows what lies along the way;
  Let’s smile what smiles we can to-day.
