FARE YOU WELL

FARE YOU WELL

Fare you well, fare you well,
Dear my students, and colleagues as well.
May it be the alma mater or it be the office
Learn much, churn so well as to earn lavish.

Know we all the universal phenomenon ‘rise and fall
Depend on how we defend and maul
On the life’s crease the challenge ball,
How much patient not to succumb to the ruinous lull.

Don’t ever, to be victorious, stray, sabotage and swell
Nor for being tamed, be crooked, cantankerous and cruel,
Or will burn instantly to carbon like the combustible fuel
In the fire of fair-play where the just Mirror does dwell.

Save you none, of course, nothing can
Except yourself respective cultivated actions
A very goodbye! Fare you well again and again
To alight smoothly and safely at your destined stations.

* lavish – copious
* phenomenon – happening/ incident
* maul – strike
* stray – lose your way
* sabotage –damage
*swell – enlarge/bulge/be proud
* cantankerous – bad tempered
