Time flies, that’s not a lie.
As you are aging, are you maturing?
Did you use your time wisely?
Are you leveling up and trying to help the needy?
Be the guiding light of the weary.

If you did, I salute you, noble deed extraordinary.
Do it from the bottom of your heart, not because you are loved by many.
No need to be told or wait for one, two, three.
Do your actions voluntarily.
This is what you call love for humanity.

Be wise enough as you grow old; don’t be blinded by treachery.
Keep your good heart, accompanied by your sanity.
During this challenging time, this is one great contribution to our community,
Consisting of us, we, they, me.
Being a humanitarian naturally,
Compassion is man’s awesome retribution,
As we are the strength and hope for this nation.
