Once upon a time,
There was a time;
A time to work,
A time to play,
A time to study,
And a time to pray.
Once upon a time,
There was a time;
A time of wonderful smiles,
A time to bring joy to others,
A time when people is your world:
Friends, parents, brothers and sisters.
Because once upon a time,
There was a time;
A time when you are young,
A time when you are innocent,
A time when the world is unfair
And you don't even care.
Now there's only a time,
A time to work,
And another time to work.
There's never a time to play,
A time to study, nor a time to pray.
The world is now your world,
And the world is still unfair
But now you care
Because once upon a time,
There WAS a time.
