Mayor Edward Koch
Composed on Aug. 15th, 1978
Lyrics:
A simple life, a oneness-heart,
A soaring soul, a glowing goal:
O Pilot brave, your selfless role
Is now silencing the dart
That tortured the New York City.
You are its perfection-cry.
Millions shall treasure your vision high,
Its wonder-progress-beauty.
