1. Gratitude

2. The sun rises in the east The farmers wake at dawn
Ready for a day of hard work under the sun
They plow , they harvest
They plant and plant
Without rest
The foundation of society
The heart of our country
what thanks do they get?

3. The world spins on an axis People wake and fall asleep
Many far far away from their beloved families
In US and Saudi
Malaysia and UAE
OFWs work hard to earn money
Hard earned money blown away
By their own families
what thanks do they get?

4. Teachers walk around the school Ready to teach Checking and grading
From 7 to 3
5 days of the week
Teachers walk around the school
Ready to teach
Checking and grading
Hoarse voices and aching feet
Enduring it all
While the children dont appreciate
What they see
What thanks do they get?
