Along this Joyous road,
Will always serve and guide US
Though we bear weary load.
We starting on life's journey,
And though we are miles apart
The memory of these friendships
Will cheer and fill each heart.
We may be soon forgotten,
For go in different ways
But We hope TO be as happy
As in our past school-days.
