The capital letters are the refrains, or repeats.<\/font><\/p>\n

The refrain is written in tetra-syllabic (four syllables)<\/font><\/p>\n

Such Happiness<\/strong><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/strong> Such happiness<\/p>\n

Has crept up on me without sound,
\n Such happiness
\n Has touched my heart with soft caress;
\n All life\u2019s sharp corners have gone round,
\n Since I\u2019ve met you, my friend, I\u2019ve found
\n Such happiness.<\/p>\n
