TRUE FRIEND

 A pal is one
 With whom you can have fun
 Who'll listen to you and talk
 With whom you can share a joke
 One you can drink with
 And who with you will dine
 One with whom all will look rosy
 All pretty and all fine...


 But when comes adversity
 You'll seldom find him by your side

 And even if stay does he,
 Not long will he abide.


    A true friend is one
    With whom you can talk
    'bout all under the sun
    With whom you can laugh and joke
    Drink, dine and have fun
    And who to you will lend a ear
    With him all will be Okey doke'.


    Then, when hardship knocks...
    You'll find him by your side
    Always.
    You he'll never leave
    But try best to you guide
    When you sigh, he'll too heave
    When you fail to succeed
    He'll try to bring to fruition
    Your deed
    When you fall sick
    He'll bring relief
    When the whole world mocks,
    He'll stand by your belief
    If all else the other way looks
    He'll share your grief
    Even if harm befalls ye
    He'll stand in its way
    And will not hesitate even a bit
    To endanger his life, to lay down it.
    And prove that a friend in need
    Is a friend indeed!


    Such a friend is hard to come by
    Who'll laugh with you, with you who'll cry
    So if ever one you get,
    Try to be worthy of your mate
    And see that never breaks the bond
    That you with him ties fond.
