The truly whole man

Neither colour nor tongue
Neither exposure nor fame
Neither technology nor weapon
Makes man truly whole

Neither poverty nor wealth
Neither health nor infirmity
Neither learning nor illiteracy
Makes man truly whole

Neither popularity nor Obscurity
Neither eloquence nor timidity
Neither friend nor foe
Makes man truly whole

But character, only character
Character, strong and useful
Serving nature and humanity
Makes man truly whole.
