You can't beat me, sadness

 
I'll only let you accompany me for a while
And when I dry my tears
you'll leave without a trace.
You can't beat me, sadness
I won't abandon my dreams
Nor will I stop smiling every morning.
You can't beat me, sadness
You won't be able to, because I'll let the sun
and the breeze caress my face
and the scent of jasmine reach my soul.
Because I'll enjoy the witticisms
of the children and I'll laugh at my clumsiness.
You won't be able to beat me, sadness
Because I'll cling to happy memories.
Because I'll sing in the shower
And I'll laugh out loud at silly things.
You won't be able to because I was born to be happy
and enjoy every beat of this life
that I'm to live, living it.
