Yesterday we said that today would be tomorrow
And tomorrow we shall say that today was yesterday
And though we may think of tomorrow as our future
Tomorrow, today will be part of our history
We can sit back and reflect upon our history
Or even wonder what the future might unfold
We can be sure that one will affect the other
At least that is something we often have been told
Today is a day of great importance
When our history and our future will entwine
We must ensure our history is something of which we can be proud
Then we can be sure that our future will be fine
We have to work hard at what we hope to be
It’s no good just hoping things will turn out well
For without effort our future could be a disappointment
As our life is shown to be an empty shell
It’s true that some people are very fortunate
And of life’s riches get more than their fair share
Bu if we are seeking happiness in the future
Today is the day when we must prepare
For today is the first day of the future
Which is a most important day for you and me
For what we do today will reflect our ambition
And tomorrow will be part of our history
