Be Not Weary

Oh happy day, dear friend: happy birthday

All the past you left behind
Now taking up a new task
Bear in your precious own mind
Not the burden to chasing rank
But the real good lessons
As you go through this unknown ways
The lord God's grace will keep your days

Happy birthday, dear young pretty dear

With success ever awaiting
Do not yield or falter
Through the battle, through defeat
Keep moving yet never stopping
Though we are mortal
And all the joyous, all the sorrowing
They are of us and with us to beat

God bless and increase you, Rowland

Believe it, Nigeria shall arise through you
When the long awaiting hope will be over
Keep the hope alive; history will appear
Do not be weary cos heroine march alone
There won't be many but few
Your unrelentingness will be the crown
The dream will never be shattered

Hope you had enough fun Joanee, cheers!
