Count Your Age on Your Birthday

Count your gardens by the flowers,
Never by the leaves that fall;

Counts your days by golden hours,
Don’t remember clouds at all;

Count the night by the stars,
Not shadows;

Count your life by smiles,
Not tears;

And with joy on every birthday,
Count your age with friends, not years
