Embroidered Spirit
Along the lovely verdant side
A spirited campus doth reside
Arouse the defts - yes they say
Molded deeply like clay.
In thy dark forest deeply sank
And there in every rivers bank
One found refreshment and delight
Could send a heart in joyful flight.
A dig deep trench in thy beauty’s field
Thou poignant pains thoust not yield
Heart and spirit for thee collide
Waving success as a sea tide.
Above the azure ness of the sky
Like a mighty eagle on its flight
Reaching stars with dreams don’t die
With great prowess on the might.
How, oh, how thou art arrived
On sixth staircase of the climb
And how in poignant trials doth abide
To make thy name sublime.
The sixth staircase now in thee
Through unity all seems to be
As a sweet vine on a fence
Is every heart in existence.
How often, oh, how often
Though brought the victors home
And as golden time listen
Despite the years of martyrdom.
Betwixt the past and future
Lies your present stature
The stature of glorious victory
By the spirits in melody.
As the crystalline murmur glisten
Hear thee the accents triumph song
Struck from the united chords listen
Compose thine victorious song.
