A Personal Manifestoมุ่งสู่ฝนั อันไกล ที่ใหญ่ยิ่ง

มั่นคงนิ่ง แน่วแน่ ไม่แปรผัน

เดินตามทาง ดั่งวาด อาจมองจันทร์

หน้าเรานั้น ต้องฟันป่า และฝ่าไพร

พัฒนา “สถาบัน” อันประสิทธิ์

นานาจิต คิดก้าวหน้า พาสดใส

สร้างประทีป ส่องทาง ยังคนไทย

สรรค์สร้างไว้ ให้ชาติ ผงาดยืน

ร่วมกันสร้าง ทางเดิน เจริญรุ่ง

แรงใจมุ่ง มั่นหมาย ไม่ขัดขืน

ผลักดันเพื่อ ระบบงาน อันยั่งยืน

ดันเต็มที่ ทุกวันคืน ยอมฝืนทน

เพื่อระบบ ข้อมูล สร้างคุณค่า

ฝันนั้นหนา คือเป้า เฝ้าฝกีฝน

อันเส้นทาง ร้างนัก จักเจียมตน

ไกลสุดพ้น ทนได้ ด้วยแรงใจนวนรรน ธีระอัมพรพันธุ์ 29 ก.ค. 2556
