In search of happiness, I wandered around the world,
Some places made me joyous,
I thought I found happiness,
When I departed, I was in sorrow again.
In search of happiness, I met people,
Some of them brought pleasure,
I thought I found happiness,
When they left me, I was broken again.
In search of happiness, I finally encountered myself,
I was amused, The happiness was within me.
How foolish was I to search it outside!
