There's something in those eyes of his
Those big and wondrous eyesSomething that's alive in him
Noble, grand intensity
From little eyes first sight
I knew that it was there
A spark that sizzles light in him
And brighter yet to come
His time will soon approach
And in his eyes; the light
Will shine for men to see
Get up, my son, and lead
Always full of hope, my son
Be always full of hope
However dark it seems
Be fire: let virtue fan the flames
Be water: let wisdom make the rain
Be earth: solid ground for weaker men
Be air: life when breathing in.
Be wise, my son, be brave
Be chivalrous and true
Let them see, the same as I
The light that burns in you
Stand in place of those who can't
Or those who've bent the knee
Press on, my son, be strong
You have what they need
Be always full of hope, my son
Be always full of hope
The day draws near
When men will need
That something that's inside of you
