Woman...

Washing, ironing, cooking,

Loving, caring and respecting,

With affection and fondness

Managing her home!

 

Man...

Working, protecting, caring,

Day by day managing and sustaining the home.

Macho, manly, determined,

At his own time and place!

 

Together...

They wash, pass, cook,

They love, they care, they respect,

They work, administer, protect.

With their differences, beliefs, longings

They seek together a planned harmony,

Built on the principles of social and family equality.
