On our borders are the soldiers
Fighting to protect our land
In the country are the doctors
Less praised, yet most noble band
Forever fighting day and night
While Covid tries to show its might
They slog for us, so we can rest
To keep us safe, they do their best
Their own homes – although they care
They leave to Fate, to do their share
While in their homes, their kids do cry
To help the needy, they do try
Suffocating in their PPE kits
They learn to cope, and keep their wits
Managing to keep their health secure
While the labs work to find a cure
Let us salute, and cheer them on
Not just till the pandemic’s gone
Let’s always lend a helping hand
To this selfless, courageous band
Keeping all diseases at bay
Is their motto – come what may
So till they walk on their chosen tracks
We all are safe, and can relax
My sincere and most humble thanks
To all who join these noble ranks
Because of you, we all agree
The world is safe, and we are free.
