And laugh, and not weep,
and laugh and do not cry,
And you are laughing, instead of crying
And will you laugh and not weep?
And laugh, and not weep,
And you are laughing, while you should be crying?
You are laughing, instead of crying?
Are you laughing, instead of crying?
And keep laughing and do not weep,
And you laugh and do not weep
And do you laugh instead of weeping,
And laugh and not weep,
Will you laugh at it rather than weep?
And you laugh to scorn and manifest contempt, instead of weeping out your eyes and your hearts
That you laugh at it instead of crying ?
And you laugh at it and weep not,
And will ye laugh and not weep,-
laughing ˹at it˺ and not weeping ˹in awe˺,
and laugh (at it), and not weep,
Why do you laugh instead of weeping?
and do you laugh, and do you not weep,
and do ye laugh and not weep?
And will you laugh and not weep?
And do you laugh, and do you not weep.
and do ye laugh, and not weep,
And will you laugh and not weep—
(For on hearing the mention of the Hour of punishment) you laugh rather than weep.
and laugh and not weep,
