Слушать(AI)Take Home A Smile
Take home a smile; forget the petty cares,

What though you've traveled many a dusty mile,
Footsore and weary, still take home a smile.
Take home a smile — it is not much to do,
But much it means to them who wait for you;
You can be brave for such a little while;
The day of doubt is done — take home a smile.
