Everytime you feel despair in your soul,
and you keep smiling and speaking of hope to the others;
everytime you feel death in your soul,
and you keep smiling and speaking to the others of life;
everytime you feel in sin,
and you keep smiling and speaking to the others of love, and love concretely,
everytime your soul is plunged into pitch darkness,
and you keep smiling and speaking to others of light:
you’ll seem to be acting out a comedy,
notto be living in the truth;
then remember: that is the divine comedy,
that is the pure ideal,
that is to be Jesus Forsaken
