Take the world as it is! — with its smiles and its sorrow
Take the world as it is! — with its smiles and its sorrow,
— Its love and its friendship — its falsehood and truth —
Its schemes that depend on the breath of tomorrow!
— Its hopes which pass by like the dreams of our youth —
Yet, oh! whilst the light of affection may shine,
— The heart in itself hath a fountain of bliss!
In the worst there's some spark of a nature divine,
— And the wisest and best take the world as it is .
