A chilly morning, birdsong fills the air
A sweet refrain,as nature's beauty takes hold again,A NEW DAY
Clearing, washing, milking
All chores, TIRESOME THEY WERE BUT unity WINS

Chilly? THE FREEZING COLD WON'T STOP US
WE TEAMED IN FIVES AND SEVENS
THRONG THE RIVER,
WHAT A BEAUTY OF UNITY
A gentle stream meanders, through the glade
AND AS WE FETCH AND SPLASH THE WATER
THE JOY REKINDLES

THE PURITY OF THE WATER BINDS US
As we enjoy and bond
A connection deep, a sweet embrace THE BEST OF TIMES

Beneath a canopy
With friends like family, by our side
Sharing secrets, dreams untold
A bond unbreakable, growing bold AND SOLID

Chasing shadows, day by day HOPING THE BEST COMES OUR WAY
The singing games, swimming
Mountain climbing, we would explore the world so wide
With laughter echoing through the air

Time may pass and life may change
But memories linger, ever strange
Childhood friends, a special tie
Across Africa, our spirits soared, in tales of heroes.
THE BEST WE WERE
THE BEST WE REMAIN
