A new dawn will soon appear
With pop, confetti and teddy bear
Celebrations, revelry and cheer
All friends, family, near and dear
-
To the excitement, lend your ear
Fun, frolic, no ‘night curfew’ fear
Let’s get into Auld Lang Syne gear
Fireworks is all I can hear
-
Smiles, laughter, nothing else to idear
Joking around, what’s there to jeer?
All caps, woolies and knitwear
One feels like Queen and King Lear
-
Next year arrives in seconds mere
Heartbeats increase as 2400 is near
Songs of Feliz Ano Nuevo we overhear
Boys and girls dance among peer
-
No one minds noisemakers queer
Marching bands go forward from rear
Delights and wishes – sheer and sincere
For the year gone by – a single tear
-
Toasts and parties, nothing unclear
To let it in, all hurry to volunteer
Ring in the new, the old outwear
Cool and calm, no pressure to exert
-
I wish you all a Happy New Year
All friends from Antarctica to Zaire
