Если жизнь тебя обманет,
Не печалься, не сердись!
В день уныния смирись:
День веселья, верь, настанет.

Сердце в будущем живет;
Настоящее уныло:
Все мгновенно, все пройдет;
Что пройдет, то будет мило.

what though life conspire to cheat you,
Do not sorrow or complain
Lie still on the day of pain
And the day of joy will greet you

Hearts live in the coming day.
There's an end to passing sorrow.
Suddenly all flies away,
And delight returns tomorrow.

Should This Life Sometime Deceive You...
Should this life sometime deceive you,
Don t be sad or mad at it!
On a gloomy day, submit
Trust -- fair day will come, why grieve you?
Heart lives in the future, so
What if gloom pervades the present?
All is fleeting, all will go;
What is gone will then be pleasant.
