String those beads of joy and hope on golden threads of love

Beads which, in the main,

Look not luxurious or ornate,

But positively plain.

Do let those simple beads of love stay permanently strung,

As tightly as can be,

That everyone can proudly wear

With the spirit that is free.

So, let us keep on stringing those beads of joy and hope -

Beads that help remind

That if we stand together now

We'll not be left behind.
