You Too, Shall Pass, CoVid-19

You came without warning

You devastated our lives

We could do nothing

Many perished without goodbyes

There were days where the world stood still

Thousands felt helpless, lost and nowhere to go

Each country doing their best to cure the ill

So far the recovery has been slow

But we will fight you, we will prevail

We are many, you are but one

We will do all we can to end your toxic trail

We will not stop until we are done

Singapore is a small but strong nation

With the many qualities we hold dear 

Together we will to stop this proliferation

You can be sure your eradication is near

Chorus

CoVid-19 your days are numbered

Everyday your aggressive disposition was featured

CoVid-19 your strength will be diminished

Everyday we gain insights to your grand finish

Social distancing is one measure

That we practised on a daily basis

The mask we wear serves as a reminder 

We won’t let you come near our faces

Government aided funds mitigated problems in economy

Frontliners sacrificed their time and energy 

Volunteers helping out the communities

Donations from philanthropists are aplenty

We have turned this adversity into an advantage

We saw this as a good time for growth no matter the age

Working from home allowed for bonding time

The lockdown made it easier to study online

A vaccine to end this most infamous virus

Is what all scientists are scrambling to find

We, as a people will stand and work together

To turn individual strand into ties that bind

We stand with all countries in solidarity

The strength we’ve amassed is manifold

To reach a common goal, together in unity

In the end, resilience is what we will behold
