In Your Heart

In your heart

small is happiness
in green grass
but far is happiness
in a bird's flight

as you want to get closer
it goes far away
small is happiness
in sky's clouds

happiness is a liar
says you own it
but just leaves sadness
and goes far

not possible to know
who owns it
we smile in sight
but in reality, cry

small is happiness
in green grass
but far is happiness
in a bird's flight

don't seek it
in sky clouds
it's in your heart
not so far
