Be Calm

Don't be excited
about current events,
be calm in your mind.
If something happens,
don't lose your self-control... don't give up.

And when your girl friend
shuts the door between you... leaving you.
Now be calm and smile,
it's not the end of the world... so cheer up.

Now you are out of work.
That takes all of your money... but don't close your eyes.
Look for a new job.
You can find a job again... have a look.
Now you are homeless,
make a new start in your life... try everything.

Don't give up... don't give up
and when you are downcast... try to rise.

Don't be excited
about current events,
be calm in your mind.
If something happens,
don't give up and try everything... to survive...
to survive.

Don't give up...

Don't give up... don't give up, be patient next time.
Try again... try again, even if it's going wrong.
