No Guts, No Glory



A great effort brings prize Cultivates the mind, makes me wise Swim through a rough sea to get there Strength with faith hand its share Courage ignites by a strong will Put me on a throne of challenge and thrills A sense of fulfillment without regret Victory’s my joy for giving my best.
