Happiness O! Happiness!
The moment I’ve so longed for
With you I lost the old me
But to something refreshing you gave in
Your praises will always remain on my lips
Happiness you’re the perfect friend.
Whenever misery steers me in the face
And life seems so lonely and long a journey to go,
You give me the reason to smile
And the strength to forge ahead
The only prize I’m willing to pay a price for
Happiness you’re priceless.
In the comfort zone of your arms
I will forever lay “n” stay
For you make me feel very alive and extraordinary
Much better than I can ever imagine
What else could I have wished for than this?
Happiness you’re the best.
In your dearest presence some say am crazy
That notwithstanding, I shun you not; stick “n” stay
For if putting smiles on my face, easing my pains
And show casing my joy to the world is so called “madness”
Then there is no fairness “n” justice in the world
Happiness you’re amazing.
