Ring in, ring in New Year
Brings you health and all cheers,
Ring out, ring out Old Year
Yielded much grief and tears.

May this New Year spring in you
Bring the renewed vigour and zeal
May this New Year flourish anew
Bring you flavoured bread and weal.

Banish the cult of exploiting youth
Brighten the unemployed eyes with light,
Ring in the LIFE of redress and truth
And wish you all the strength and might.
