The power of youth is like flame,
Bright and strong with endless aim.
They are the future, the hope within,
And with their drive, they’ll always win.
They have the passion, the force to change,
To make the world that’s not deranged.
With Ideals that is bright and true,
They’ll show the world what they can do.
No obstacle is too big to face,
No challenge they can’t embrace.
They’ll fight for what they know is right,
And blaze a trail that is clear and bright.
Youth empowerment is the key,
To unlock the full capacity.
To shape the world that’s just and fair,
A future that’s beyond compare.
So let’s support the youth today,
And help them on their chosen way.
For with their energy and drive,
They’ll build a world where we can thrive.
