The bombs in London and Glasgow will not stop the rain...
What does it matter if it rains,
as long as you are out of shoes
so that the water doesn't stay
but runs out of your naked sandals
keeping your cold feet not sweating?
What's the difference if you fail
in everything as long as you keep going,
never minding all those fools
that try to sabotage your life for nothing,
making trouble only for themselves?
What does it matter if you get kicked out of work,
since you can do much better work
at home at ease and by yourself?
What does it matter if you're out of money
since it doesn't pay to get rich anyway,
since envy only will insist on robbing you
and riches and possessions just will give you worries?
What's the difference? There is nothing,
everything will end up anyway
with nothing you can take away with you,
for life and destiny will finally get even,
and there's nothing you can do about it.
