Laughing (English) Lachen (Dutch)

The original version of this poem is the dutch one, but when I started translating it, I began to like the English version much better, so at first I only placed that one... CJ Madison gave me the idea to place both and I did, I hope you'll like :')

Laughing
Laughing, Laughing and Laughing
Is everything that I do.

 

Laughing, Laughing and Laughing
Stop? I don't know how to.

 

Laughing, Laughing and Laughing
Just hide behind a smile.

 

Laughing, Laughing and Laughing
Then on the outside everything looks right.

 

Laughing, Laughing and Laughing
And from the inside? That is what you have to find.
 

Lachen
Lachen, Lachen, Lachen
Is alles wat ik doet,

 
Lachen, lachen, lachen
Stoppen? Ik weet niet hoe dat moet

Lachen, lachen, lachen
Just hide behind a smile.

 
Lachen, Lachen Lachen
Dan komt van buiten alles goed

 
Lachen, lachen, lachen
En van binnen zoek je zelf maar uit hoe je het doet.

I love this! It is very uplifting. Laughter is so important to cope with life's stressfulness. When we learn to find the humor in situations and learn to laught at ourselves too, our live becomes so much more enjoyable for ourselves and for those around us as laughter is almost contagious. I like that you posted this in both languages so more people can enjoy it.
