Be Not Too Hard

Be not too hard for life is short

And nothing is given to man

Be not too hard when he is sold or bought

For he must manage as best he can

Be not too hard when he blindly dies

Fighting for things he does not own

Be not too hard when he tells lies

Or if his heart is sometimes like a stone

Be not too hard for soon he'll die

Often no wiser than he began

Be not too hard for life is short

And nothing is given to maaan

Be not too hard for life is short

And nothing is given to man

Be not too hard when he is sold or bought

For he must manage as best he can

Be not too hard when he blindly dies

Fighting for things he does not own

Be not too hard when he tells lies

Or if his heart is sometimes like a stone

Be not too hard for soon he'll die

Often no wiser than he began

Be not too hard for life is short

And nothing is given to man

And nothing is given to man
