Happiness? These days it's hard to know,Is 'happy' a yuppie word?
What is it? Where does it come from?
From food and drink?
From money and wealth?
From possesion and riches?
From family and friends?
These days, what does it mean?
'Happy' Birthday, 'Merry' Christmas
But what is happiness? This mesterious feeling?
Absence of saddness, depression and sorrow?
When all is well and nothing is wrong?
No words can truley describe 'happy'.
