What i want is

etc....

for line in `find $1 -type f`
do  
    echo $line
    echo hello good morning

Or

find $1 -type f -print -exec echo good morning \;

or even shorter if you have gnu-find

find $1 -type f -printf "%p\ngoog morning\n"

You code should work. This is another way to try it:
find . -type f -exec echo -e {}"\n" good morning \;
