Benin
Today is all there is in truth,
And if our memory serves us well,
The future is a glorious one,
Which serves to thus foretell
A bright and peaceful land at One,
Where all can laugh and sing,
Where each can serve the greater good,
And deliver the Golden Ring
Which so encompasses the mass
Of life within these walls,
And gives us growth at every stage,
And offers a myriad calls
To bring us up and out of matter,
To listen to the tune,
To bring us closer to our God,
And finally, Sun and Moon.
