Friendship

This town within the Beacons
Gives out a welcome call
To friends across the ocean
Who made music for us all.

Friendship is a treasure
More precise than gold.
For it there is no substitute,
It can be neither bought nor sold.

Although the Atlantic parts us,
In our hearts will always be
Thoughts of special friendship
With our friends across the sea.
