time to slow things down
and enjoy the fruits of labor
you've given us
dedication and energy
above all your dear friendship
since your retirement
there are three new jobs
to replace you
a coach, an entertainer
but above all a team player
throughout your career
you've overcome many challenges
now you'll have fo deal with
the ordeal of retirement
the support of all your friends
will help you to walk this path
with dignity and pride
now you're retiring
after many years of great service
you left us with many
precious memories
we wish you good luck
your friendship is dear to us
at the horizon awakens
a new beginning for you
may your retirement be
the best years of your life
to explore new activities and enjoy
the fullness of our friendship
if you have troubles
keeping yourself busy, my friend
I can lend you some office work
happy retirement to you
