Chorus:
Don`t give up till it's over, don't quit if
you can
The weight on your shoulder will make you a stronger man
Grasp your nettle tightly, though it will burn
Treat your failures lightly, your luck is bound to turn
Look at the autumn flowers how they wither
and fade
With nature's hidden powers, next year they'll be re-made
Watch the full moon rising, like a ghost of
the sun
(?) more surprising, when the new day has begun
