Tradition

Tradition, a way of life

Passed down through the years

From generation to generation

A bond that never severs

It anchors us to the past

And guides us on our way

It gives us roots and identity

And helps us find our place

It teaches us to honor

The customs of our kin

To respect the elders

And the wisdom they impart within

It helps to keep us connected

To our culture and our land

It gives us strength and continuity

As we walk hand in hand

So let us hold on to tradition

With respect and reverence due

For it is the thread that ties us

To the ones we love and knew
