[edit] Lyrics

Sing to the colors that float in the light;

Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!

Yellow the stars as they ride through the night

And reel in a rollicking crew;

Yellow the fields where ripens the grain

And yellow the moon on the harvest wain;

Hail!

Hail to the colors that float in the light

Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!

Blue are the billows that bow to the sun

When yellow robed morning is due.

Blue are the curtains that evening has spun

The slumbers of Phoebus to woo;

Blue are the blossoms to memory dear

And blue is the sapphire and gleams like a tear;

Hail!

Hail to the ribbons that nature has spun;

Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!

Here's to the college whose colors we wear,

Here's to the hearts that are true!

Here's to the maid of the golden hair,

And eyes that are brimming with blue!

Garlands of bluebells and maize intertwine,

And hearts that are true and voices combine;

Hail!

Hail to the college whose colors we wear;

Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!
