If you can't be a pine on the top of the hill,
Be a scrub in the valley — but be
The best little scrub by the side of the rill;
Be a bush if you can't be a tree.

If you can't be the sun be a star;
It isn't by size that you win or you fail —
Be the best of whatever you are!

You bring me great love, and I feel great pride.<
I believe that love is loyalty.
It will always have your back.
