Farewell to you, the master of wisdom... The wisest man I've ever known Was an honor to be learning from you The strongest teacher of virtue Farewell to you the elder, the decent Death was your only choice You did make your stand, refused to repent And took your own life with your own hand
\"All I know is that I know nothing\" I'm the apprentice
Clanging words in callow minds Sprouted seeds of morality Taught and counselled the young to be wise The reason why he was to blame
\"All I know is that I know nothing\" I'm the apprentice
Hemlock in the bowl, The elder to swallow Hemlock in this bowl Pledging our health, we follow
\"An unexamined life is not worth living\" Socrates
