Stay calm
Don’t use the lift; take the stairs;
Do not panic and be prepared.
Earthquake, stay calm,
Take cover, don’t jump off.
Run outdoor to open ground,
Go quick, don’t look around.
If you’re trapped, stay calm,
Keep your strength, don’t make a sound.
If you’re bleeding, press down hard,
Treat your wound with a cotton wrap.
When you hear people, you can shout!
Keep in mind help will come.
Cover your mouth, nose, and head,
Hide your body under a desk.
Don’t use the lift; take the stairs;
Do not panic and be prepared.
Keep in mind help will be here!
