You will stand on the shoulders of life
You will be counted among world leaders
Or even academicians
You will be a surgeon
Operating deep into the belly of life
You will cut through the cords of human suffering
And open a channel for success
You will be a pilot
Flying far above the hostilities of life
You will hold success in your hands
And be the brightest star in the sky
You will be an engineer
Tunnelling through life with easy
You will hold the torch of hope
And make us see the light at the end of the tunnel
You will be a nurse
Bringing healing to the sick
Injecting life into the dying
You will bring joy to many families
You will be a farmer
Full of goodness
Ploughing seeds of life
You will nourish the poor
And feed nations
One day, you will find yourself
And be amazed
At what you have achieved
From rags to riches
You will teach others
The lessons of life
