Whatever else you do lyrics

Whatever else you do or forbear,

impose upon yourself the task of happiness;

and now and then abandon yourself

to the joy of laughter.

And however much you condemn

the evil in the world, remember that the

world is not all evil; that somewhere

children are at play, as you yourself in the

old days; that women still find joy

in the stalwart hearts of men;

And that men, treading with restless feet

their many paths, may yet find refuge

from the storms of the world in the cheerful

house of love.
