Raise the Flag of Victory
The four-instrument orchestra
plays oldies and my favorite aria,
the listeners of different ages watch Debby,
the lovely violinist, who earns their instant sympathy;
they applaud and donate quarters and dollars
for a cause that enriches every life changed by songs!
Raise your flag of victory,
in those crowded squares of different nationalities,
skin color is not seen, you only feel equality;
express great joy and defeat monstrosity!
Raise the flag of victory,
even haters get tired of their anger and madness!
Music unites and understanding creates harmony,
ask Debby why she loves playing music for the crowds;
her surprising answer will be, " I make them happy,
the reward is not money but a brave act of humanity;
my lively music makes their feet move frantically:
it's zest for life, it's gratefulness shown in smiles! "
Raise the flag of victory
whenever you achieve another outstanding goal;
whenever your pride makes you walk very tall!
Raise your flag of victory,
nobody besides you can change reality;
beating the odds is not an impossibility!
