Winds Of Change

the morning smells fresh,

like it's been a long night,

it ushers in jubilation,

and rekindles hope

with the triumph of good,

the belief in character,

the hope for a brighter tomorrow,

it's rung in the smell of liberty,

and the faith in freedom,

how free the breath,

as the world rejoices 

the winds of change,

how clear the path

with the storms passed

as the world soaks

in unfettered sunlight,

and dreams, again 

of living in unshackled thoughts.

may hope strike roots,

wish the dreams nurture

in every soul

may the faith be infectious,

to inspire and grow,

may the sunlight reach every home and heart,

light up all souls, all over again,

and to a fresh morning,

may my countrymen awake!
