The year has passed by
bringing memories of life
so wonderful as well as nice
Let the past die,
Let the future arrive
as we sing songs of farewell
when the clock strikes midnight
No one has ever celebrated
with fun and excitement
during someone's departure
simultaneously with someone's arrival
The new year has arrived
with new hopes and secrets
to be unraveled and disclosed
as well as stories
to be unfolded
while new relationships are kindled.
