Look around and see the world

There’s a boy who seems very sick

There’s a man who seems very sad

There’s a girl who seems very cold

See the people who need your help

See the people and give your hands

This way and that way you can do

Helping is a great thing to do

The Happy Prince

Once there was a statue of a prince

It was a statue with a ruby in his sword

It was a statue with emerald eyes

It was a statue with golden clothes

One day on the way south

a swallow stopped by the statue

He was tired and sleepy

So he spent one night on the statue

The next morning

the swallow saw something strange

The prince was crying

What's the matter with you

The prince said

I see a little boy sick in bed

He has no mommy He has no food

Can you take my ruby to the boy please

The swallow felt sorry and he said I will

The swallow took the ruby

He flew to the boy

And he dropped it on the boy's bed

The swallow felt great and he said

Get well soon

The next morning the prince said

I see a young man crying on a bench

He wants to be a painter

However he has no money to buy the paint

Can you take my eye to the young man please

The swallow had to leave soon but he said

I will go

He took the emerald

He flew to the young man

and he left it by the young man on the bench

The swallow felt great and he said

Be a great painter

The next day the prince said

I see a little girl selling matches in the street

However she has no coat or shoes

She has no one to take care of her

Can you take my other eye to the girl

It was getting cold

The swallow was late to leave but he said

I will

The swallow took the emerald

He flew to the match girl

and he left the emerald in the girl's basket

The swallow saw the girl smiling and he said

I am so happy

The prince had no eyes anymore

The swallow felt sorry for the prince

So he said

I can't leave you I'll stay here with you

From that day on

the swallow became the eyes for the prince

Every morning

the swallow looked over the town

When he saw someone who needed help

he told the prince

He took part of the gold from the prince

and he gave it to those who were in need

A cold cold winter came

Now the prince had nothing to share

and the swallow died in peace

underneath the prince

The people in town buried the swallow

broke up the statue

and put the statue into the fire

The prince and the swallow passed away

However their beautiful hearts

got together in heaven

And they lived happily ever after
