Beyond the doubt of darkest night
O Someone who alights.
Shinning torch towards tomorrow
For my dreams of morrow.
From the delight of listening
Key from my next morning
My mentor’s voice of intelligence
We, students are influenced.
O He teaches us to learn.
This knowledge that we have earned.
Through his patience we understand
Like reaching us his helping hand.
And as time to time passes by
Seen class generations.
But our minds will never say goodbye.
To his life felt education.
O This gift of education
Which we received from you
There’s nothing more than a mentor.
Through your teaching, our hearts are all renew.
