I bend, I do not break
I sway, I do not crumple
I twist, I do not rip
I bow, I do not crack
I am the bamboo with whistling leaves
I bend, I do not break
I give, I do not shatter
I rebound, I do not fall
I am strong, I am not weak
I am the reed at the water’s edge
I bend, I do not break
Test me, I will not fail
Push me, I push back
Crush me, I will rise
I am the young sapling with branches high
Because I bend I will never break!
