A ray of hope
Was what you were for us
When we, far from home
Wished we were near
To those who were to us, dear
And when we got to taste
The bitter-sweet world
A tempest beyond our harbour
You were our solace
When theories like boulders
Were kept on our shoulders,
Those used only to stones
And complaints about us,
Fell upon you like an avalanche
Of us being incompetent, naughty
You tried to correct us instead
Gave us a smile, made us feel special
Made us feel like stars
Made us feel like winners
And thus, you were for us
A ray of hope
