LABOR DAY

On this day of labor, we honor those who work

Who toil and sweat and sacrifice for the common good

Who build and create and innovate with their hands and minds

Who face the challenges and risks of every day with courage and dignity

 

We salute the workers of every field and sector

The farmers and miners, the teachers and nurses

The engineers and artists, the drivers and cleaners

The soldiers and activists, the writers and leaders

 

We celebrate the achievements and contributions of labor

The bridges and roads, the schools and hospitals

The inventions and discoveries, the stories and songs

The movements and revolutions, the rights and freedoms

 

We recognize the struggles and hardships of labor

The exploitation and oppression, the injustice and inequality

The accidents and injuries, the diseases and deaths

The strikes and protests, the demands and fights

 

We pledge our solidarity and support to labor

To stand with them in their causes and demands

To protect their rights and dignity, their health and safety

To share their joys and sorrows, their hopes and dreams

 

On this day of labor, we honor those who work

And we thank them for making our world a better place.
