I shall ride the waves of life;
The rough and the smooth,
till the very end.
I shall not despair when I crash,
nor be exuberant when I find myself upon the highest tide.
I shall ride through the storms,
through the vicious winds,
through the overwhelming darkness.
I shall ride through the sunny days,
Beneath the open sea-blue skies,
As the gentle breath of God renews my soul.
I shall ride the waves of life,
Always moving forward.
My destiny propels me to the finish line,
Who can stop the hands of time?
Zakaria Amara
