Persevere! Persevere!
Life is too dear
To worry and care
Or fret and fare

Persevere! Persevere!
Never live in fear
Like the lion in its lair
For only cowards never dare

Persevere! Persevere!
When life seems unfair
Don’t you shed a tear
For relief is always near

Persevere! Persevere!
When it’s all too much to bear
A way out will appear
Like a breeze of fresh air

Persevere! Persevere!
Even after many a year
From some place or somewhere…
Victory will soon be here!
