1. My smile is like a rose at dawn's first light,
And my smile is like a star when night grows dim.

2. When snow blankets the land in a frigid cloak,
When clouds veil the sky in a somber film,

3. When the meadow sheds its bouquet of blooms,
And the light cowers in the cave of winter grim,

4. Dream of summer, and smile,
To conjure flowers and fragrance around you.

5. If you find souls who excel at taking,
Be joyous in giving.

6. If weariness keeps you from giving riches,
Be glad you can give hope.
