For everything there is a season, and a time for everything under the sun. A time to work, and a time to play; A time to soldier on, and a time to call it a day; A time to be serious, and a time to have fun. For everything there is a season, and a time for everything under the stars. A time to be harsh, and a time to be kind; A time to be troublesome, and a time to put troubles behind; A time for Venus, and a time for Jupiter and Mars. For everything there is a season, and a time for everything under the sky. A time to stay, and a time to go; A time to say Yes, and a time to say No; A time to laugh, and a time to cry; A time to sing, and a time to say goodbye.
