Ther's sunshine an stormas we travel along,


Throo life's journey whearivver we be;


An its wiser to leetenyor heart wi' a song,


Nor to freeat at wbat fatemay decree;


Yo'll find gooid an badamang th' fowk 'at yo meet,


An' form friendships maybeyo'll regret;


But tho' some maydeceive an lay snares for yor feet,


Pass 'em by,—an'Forgive an' Forget.
