Smile [German translation]

Smile though your heart is aching,

Smile even though it's breaking,

When there are clouds in the sky,

you'll get by.

If you smile through your pain and sorrow,

Smile and maybe tomorrow

You'll see the sun come shining through

for you.

Light up your face with gladness,

Hide every trace of sadness,

Although a tear

may be ever so near.

That's the time you must keep on trying

Smile, what's the use of crying?

You'll find that life is still worthwhile

if you just smile.
