Great Me

I am a child
And I'm great!

I am  a boy
And I'm great!

I'm a girl
And I'm great!

I am of a family
And I'm great!

I am that lad in the hamlet
And I'm great!

I am that milkmaid on the field
And I'm great!

I am that prince in the palace
Clothed in the best robes
And I'm great!

I am the underprivileged lass
Whose lunch is served as supper
And I'm great!

I am a pupil in a school
I learn the letter sounds,the numbers,I know
And I'm great!


I'm a rich or poor
White or black
And I'm great!

I'm born with a future, so bright!
The society, set to help me grow
You sure know now that I'm great!
