Many have given their lives for this land in which i lived and grew,
To protect it courage within and weapons our soldiers drew,

Be it shepherds, mastiffs or even hounds,

A faded photograph so full of care,
With father and mother with love to share,

Do not be ruled, courage and handwork is the key,
Do not let your parents force a career for your life,
Do not let them force you pick a husband or a wife,

Learning in classes that we would never want to miss,
Each led by the dedicated teachers we know so well,
Teaching us to paint, speak, write and even spell,

Good looking on the outside, a genius with his mind,
An eloquent speaker, he always knows what to say,
A trustworthy friend of mine that always anybody's day,
