Mahfooz Ali - Never Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will;
When the road you are trudging seems all up hill;
When the funds are low, and the debts are high;
And you want to smile, but have to sigh;
When care is pressing you down
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Success is failure turned inside out;
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt;
And you can never tell how close you are;
It may be near when it seems a far.
So stick to the fight when your hardest hit;
It's when things go wrong that you musn't quit.
