:49:21
Yes, we are coming -
listen to our voices

:49:25
You shall know, your words
have weight

:49:29
Speak strong and clear,
so no one forgets

:49:33
the fight for the nation's
new open generation

:49:38
Our minds are young
and full of vigor,

:49:42
pure wills made from hard steel
:49:46
We shall reach every goal
for which we strive

:49:50
Show us the way to yet
greater goals

Honorable Vice-Chancellor.
Ladies and gentlemen.

:50:07
lt is a great honor to be asked
to give a speech tonight

:50:12
in tribute to my old friend
Gabriel Lidman.

:50:16
Gabriel Lidman is the aristocrat
among our poets.

:50:21
The most outstanding trait in
his character is honesty,

:50:24
honesty in the great
and the small.

:50:30
He derides the mediocre,
even when it hides

:50:34
beneath a noble
and proper veneer.

:50:38
His essence is curiosity,
captivating curiosity

:50:44
in his exceedingly
subdued appearance.

:50:48
When he speaks,
it is with such tranquillity,

:50:52
one is forced to listen.
:50:56
He never becomes pathetic.
