Beauty Can Replace the Ugliness of Thoughts

If I changed my looks
it would satisfy many,
but it wouldn't make me feel comfortable
with what I was born with, what nobody has; 
my traits are my identity:
beauty can replace the ugliness of thoughts:
I cultivate it strengthening minds that are so fragile!

I am cute and liked by everybody,
I laugh, I sing ballads and people listen;
girls used to flock to me and touch me
as if I were a sex god ready to indulge, but in reality
I keep true to myself and dedicate myself to only one...
while those envious girls' eyes glisten!  

Beauty can replace the ugliness of thoughts,
that certain glow sparkling in someone's eyes...
making one smile and brightening up gloomy skies!
A miserable face is never welcomed in cheerful crowds,
being happy is living life and inspiring others, 
spring and winter are examples of a wide divide:
in which one you find more thrill, more pleasure? 
Choose harmony over dissonance, joy over sadness!
