about

Composed by Ben Arguelles and written by Henry Longfellow

lyrics

tell me not in numbers
life is but an empty dream
for the soul is dead that slumbers
and things are not what they seem

not enjoyment and not sorrow
is our destined end or way
but to act that each tomorrow
finds us further than today

lives of great men all remind us
we can make our lives sublime
and departing leave behind us
footprints on the sands on time

let us then be up and doing
with a heart for any fate
still achieving, still pursuing
learn to labor and to wait
