You have waited for this moment
Now, at last, it has come true
You have finally reached the summit
And, I am quite proud of you
You are worthy of this triumph
No one could deserve it more
So, embrace this time before you
Filled with happiness galore.

You had trained for countless hours
From dawn ‘til the setting sun
Never knowing where the outcome
Would lead, when this day was done
You stayed focused on the challenge
While you prepared to compete
And the days ‘til now were worth it
Your win has made them complete.

You have longed for this occasion
And at last, it has arrived
Now, you stand above all others
With your heart and soul revived
From this time, you’ll travel onward
Toward your future aspirations
But this day, enjoy your moment
With my warm congratulations!
