What’s the use of crying, in a Yesterday that’s gone?
What’s the point of worrying, in a Tomorrow not yet born?
Why not live in bliss and joy and peace?
In the present moment be happy, be happy, can we please?
Be happy in the NOW, this moment is a Gift
Smile and dance and celebrate, don’t just exist or drift
It is in this moment, that we can choose to be happy and glad
Let’s not lose this moment, to memories that make us sad
Yesterday is a place, that we just can’t go
The past is an illusion, it’s like a dream- a stage show
There is no way of being happy, in a moment that has passed
The only thing it will give us, regrets that will last
The future doesn’t exist, it’s just another dream
It looks so very real, as long as we worry and scream
How can we be happy in an illusion of the mind?
Let’s wake up to the NOW, let’s not be blind
Everybody wants to be happy, who doesn’t want this gift?
Who doesn’t want to enjoy their life with a lift?
Everybody wants pleasure, nobody wants pain
But they look for it in wrong places, stressed and in vain
Happiness is simple, if we learn to live in the NOW
Joy and bliss are possible, for those who go with the flow
It’s not in the future, nor in the past, but in the present
We must realize that happiness happens moment by moment
Be happy in the NOW, that’s the only way to be
Don’t be worried in tomorrow, to there we cannot flee
Don’t rehearse the past that’s dead and gone
Be happy in this moment, as if we were just born
