We of the Nursing Profession,
Having passed another year,
Pressing towards the goal before us
In our chosen career,
Wish to thank you, loyal parents.
For your help along our way:
Always ready to encourage,–
Standing by us day by day.
If, sometimes, we felt our efforts
Were not adequate to do
Many tasks along our Pathway,
You were there to help us through,
With your kind advice and wisdom,
You inspired us with new hope
And we knew what ere befell us
We could ever after cope.
In our joys you ever mingled.
Sharing in each happiness,
Glad to give advice when needed.
Proud each year of our progress.
So. three cheers to those dear parents!
Let us shout it now and then,
And proclaim it from the housetops,
When we all are skilled R.Ns.
