Let’s Give It A Try!

It’s a very long way from here to there.
I’ve tried it alone before.
The way is rough, hard to sustain,
a few angry rivers to forge,
but I’ll try again if you’ll come, too.
I can’t predict what’s in store.
The path goes here, then wanders there,
there’s always a little bit more
to excite the senses, catch the eye.
Let’s have a go. Let’s give it a try.

If we fail to reach the goal this time,
there will be another day.
Let’s give it our best, try very hard,
the chips will fall where they may.
Then when it’s done and we’ve faced the task,
accepted the challenge, we’ll proudly say:
side by side, strength with strength,
we pressed on from day to day,
through gloomy clouds, under clear blue sky,
we gave it a go! We had to try!
