Beautiful Life (song lyrics)

From the cradle to the grave we pine,
Until when our lives waste away and decline
In narrow thoughts and pensive mood
With a wistful heart and fading smooch.

Our lives die out in fading night tides
And all hymn of delight subsides
In today’s longing and morrow’s lane
With forlorn hope and transient fad.

Fleeting are our many appearances,
Consumed our imagination and lenses
In mournful numbers and acridity,
Sorrowing— engulfed, lost, fidgety.

Play and sing and dance and dwell,
Fervors in the heart and soul
Time and rhyme with all you own
For life or else is in sins gone.
