If you found not happiness,
It that you it is perhaps sought elsewhere,
Elsewhere than in your shoes...
Elsewhere than in your hearth.

According to you, the others are happier,
But, you, you do not live on their premises...
You forgotten that each one has his worries,
You will surely not like better his case.

How can you like the life,
If your heart is full with desire?
If you liked not,
If you accepted not?

The largest obstacle with happiness undoubtedly,
It is to dream of a too large happiness.
Let us can gather happiness with the account drops,
In fact the small drops make the oceans.

Let us not seek happiness in our memories,
Let us not seek it either in the future,
LET US SEEK HAPPINESS IN THE PRESENT,
It is there and there only that it awaits us.

Happiness it is not an object,
That one can find some share out of us.
Happiness, it is only one project,
Who starts from us and is carried out in us.

There are not merchants of happiness...
There are not machines with happiness...
There are people who believe in happiness.
They are people who do themselves their happiness.
