Physics, chemistry, botany and zoo
Mathematics, history, religion too
When, what and how to do
You taught without much ado

Good habits, manners and social grace
To face problems with a smiling face
And forget enmity leaving no trace
That slow and steady, wins the race
Every morning as we climbed the Hill
It wasn't just walking to a tuition mill
Ready in body and mind after the drill
The way you taught gave us a thrill

Without rushing home for your lunch
Staying late with the students bunch
Giving us food for thought to munch
Not for a fee, that was the crunch!
For being genuine in what you do
Fame or wealth you did not woo
Dedicated gurus to the letter true
Teachers of Richmond,
We worship you

- Dr. Sarath Gamini de Silva
