It's the light to the future and the link to yesterday,
It's the understanding of our faith and the knowledge of today.
It's the meaning of the little voice inside your head,
It's to see existing life when everything else appears dead.
It is to set the highest standards, do your very best,
Think to your greatest ability and rise above the rest.
It is to love yourself even though you did not win,
To feel confident in yourself, to try again and again.
It is daring to be different when everything remains the same,
It is to see the sunlight shining through, despite the rain.
Consider yourself an individual unlike any other,
Because we can make it in this world if we just work together.
