Alright class, settle down and let’s take a look, At a word that’s precious, a valuable hook! We’re talking about “honor,” a concept so grand, Let's unpack its meaning with this teacher’s hand.

For their goodness, their character bright, And for success achieved with honest light. So “honor” isn't just a title to claim, It’s about living with integrity and fame...
