Sail Against the Wind

S-ail against the wind, 
T-hough the weather is vile; 
E-very wave rocks the boat, 
P-ouring rain goes extra mile.
H-ave to sail against the wind, 
A-s the sea seems so rough; 
N-ot for a moment you let
Y-our heart faint, staying tough.

G-o sail against the wind
A-t dawn sixth October; 
N-ever lose your resolve
E-ven if the storm gets stronger.
L-et your heart and soul keep the faith to win; 
A-llow your ship to tread on, sail against the wind.
