Life is not merely being alive
But being well
Mental, physical, social, spiritual
In all dimensions to tell
We've seen a pandemic big enough
To undercut recent health gain
Bringing food insecurities, health inequities
Pushing more people into poverty strain
This World Health Day
We're calling for action
To eliminate health inequities
As part of a year-long global campaign
To bring all people together
Is our current aim
To build a fairer, healthier world for the same
Where everyone receives healthcare same
This year we focus on
What we can do as a nation,
What should be our step one
In the direction of correction?
Better focus on women's health
Not taking your kidneys for granted
Your skin squeals about your inner health
Food is medicine, and a proper meal is wanted
The steps we need to do
To back the resolution this year
Personal and collective societal health
For everyone, far or near
