Hip, hip, hooray and hooray,
Mountains
Today is 'Happy Women's Day',
Let's greet them with a prayer,
For they love to care and share,
Till their larder runs threadbare,
Women are loving and forgiving,
They're also very fond of giving,
Men would be at sixes and sevens,
But for their able bodied women,
So when we meet them on the street,
Let's all bow down humbly at their feet.

Mountains
When the little mountains in our life with dogged determination we shall one by one surmount,
It'll then be easy to practice the precepts of our Lord given in His 'Sermon on the Mount',
On seeing a wounded traveler to be tended by the wayside, our pony we shall joyfully dismount,
If in business, on all our goods and services we'll happily offer a very good discount,
The umpteen times we've forgiven our neighbour we shall blissfully forget to keep track off or count,
We'll take off like Usain Bolt along life's highway,counting not the price to be paid, however high the amount,
And when the curtain call comes He'll crown us with a diadem at the eternal fount.
