A sportsman

NafisaSB

Be a good sportsman, and smile when you fail

do not take it badly, do not turn pale

resolve then and there that you will try your best

when you play again, and win over the rest.

 

Be fair and be honest, when you play a game

play the game for fun, and not to win a name

never ever cheat though the chances may be many

try not to grumble, and seem a bad penny

 

the lighter your frown, the stronger your hope

take all the chances, never say ‘nope’

follow these rules, and you shall succeed

for then, you shall be a great sportsman indeed
