"Happiness"

Happiness, oh gentle soul,
Speak where can thee be found?
Is thou a kin of Wisdom,
Or need one be abound?

Do thou come only when sought
Or need pray'r summon thee?
Need thou be bought with gold
Or 'ol silver can be?

Do thou need to come with Love
With Knowledge or with Faith...
Are ye throned by Success
Be others' pain an' hate?

Need Morality speak
For thy soul to be free...
Need man's Justice dictate
How, when, an' where you'll be?

Does the chain with which you're bound
Lies with man's Contentment?
Does one find only Freedom
Lest one locks Fulfillment?

Alas, thy will be known d'vine
When at last Man submits...
To Fate being thankful
'Til then will thou exist!
