Backpackers Song
 

Hey ho, we are backpackers on the go,
Nomads of this century and long ago,
Ready for far horizon, hot or cold
Ready for challenges, new and bold.

Like camels struggling across the desert sand,
Take big strides or strive in no-man’s land.
Like fairy-tale heroes in the wild, wild wood, 
Fly or flee, run, rush or pause, whatever the cause or mood.

We are nomads in life’s prairies, green or lean,
See new places and things, often seen or unseen.
Dare to be here or there - to seek life, love and beauty rare,
Without a care, nor bother about who stop and stare.

Just pack away your troubles into the garret.
Life is to be lived; it’s too short for regrets.
Hey ho, young and old, come and join the pack -
As nomads on the go and ready to trek or track,
Round the world with your pack on your back,
Ever ready to pack and pack and then unpack.

Andrew W.K. Yip, Singapore
