Excerpt from Songs in Merry Mood It Is To Laugh Grant me, O Muse, the power to sing The simpler songs of life, To cheer the heart distressed, and bring The soul away from strife, To move humanity to quaff The nectar of a childish laugh. I ask not for the royal gift Of epics sung to kings, Nor yet the bristling mane to lift By sounding martial strings - 'Twere cowardly to stand afar And urge ones brothers on to war. Nor yet the sorrowful refrain That draws the glistening tear, The rankling of some ancient pain, The waking up of fear, It were a churlish thing to do - To give the sky a darker hue.
