[Mike McClure]

In the world of tech, there's a name most revered
A system so vital, never to be feared
It's DNS, the one that we treasure
For it connects us all, our one true measure

DNS, short for Domain Name System
Is the backbone of the net, the one we can't skip
It translates our searches to IP addresses
So we can browse the web, without many stresses

It's like a phone directory, but for the net
We type in a site, and it's found, we can bet
It speeds up our surfing, makes it less rough
Without DNS, the net would be quite tough

So let's take a moment, to give thanks and praise
To this unsung hero, who sets our paths ablaze
DNS, we bow down to you, our king
For you make our lives easy, and all things sing
