As a boxing champion Muhammad Ali is surely a great
But 'tis as a marvellous Human Being him we should celebrate
Many of his sayings on life are truly profound
People of such wisdom and insight in numbers don't abound
Far more than a champion in the boxing ring
The praises of such a man we ought to sing
Despite the affliction of Parkinson Syndrome he's still lucid and bright
The man who was born with the gift of insight
In the Human World of the twenty first century his is a known and loved face
The man who transcends Nationality and Race
Unkind things of him you won't hear many say
Perhaps the best loved American in the World of today
The World Heavyweight Boxing Champion for a lengthy time span
But more than that a marvellous Human being and a great man.
