The Truth

 

BOY, at all times tell the truth; 

Let no lie defile thy youth; 

If thou art wrong, be thine the shame; 

Speak the truth and bear the blame.

Truth is honest, truth is sure; 

Truth is strong, and must endure; 

Falsehood lasts a single day, 

Then it vanishes away.

Boy, at all times tell the truth; 

Let no lie defile thy youth; 

Truth is steadfast, sure and fast, 

Certain to prevail at last.
