Friendship is a golden chain,
The links are friends so dear,
And like a rare and precious jewel,
Its treasured more each year....
Its clasped together firmly,
With a love that's deep and true,
And its rich with happy memories,
And fond recollections too...
Time can;t destroy its beauty,
For,as long as memory lives,
Year can't erase the pleasure,
That the joy of friendship gift...
For Friendship is a priceless gift,
That can't bought or sold,
But to have understanding friends,
Its worth far more than gold...
And the golden chain of friendship,
Is strong and blessed tie,
Binding kindred hearts together,
As the year go passing by...
