MOTHER OF MEN

Poem by Brian Hooker, '02 Music by Seth Bingham, '04

Mother of Men, grown strong in giving,
Honor to them thy lights have led;

Rich in the toil of thousands living,
Proud of the deeds of thousands dead.

We who have felt thy power and known thee,
We in whose work thy gifts avail, —

High in our hearts enshrined, enshrone thee,
Mother of Men, Old Yale.

Spirit of Youth, alive, unchanging,
Under whose feet the years are cast,

Heir to an ageless empire ranging,
Over the future and the past;

Thee, whom our fathers loved before us,
Thee, whom our sons unborn shall hail, —

Praise we today in sturdy chorus,
Mother of Men, Old Yale.

American Folk Songs

HOODAH DAY

Sea Chantey
Arr. by Marshall Bartholomew

As I was walking down the street,
Hoodah to my hoodah!

A charming girl I chanced to meet.
Hoodah, hoodah day!

Refrain:
Blow ye winds, heigh-o, for Californio!

There's a-plenty of gold, so I've been told,
On the banks of the Sacramento!

Refrain:
I said, "Fair maiden, "Howd'ye do?"
"Quite well sir, no thanks to you!"

Refrain:
So quickly then I strolled away,
I'd not another word to say.

SHENANDOAH

CINDY

Kentucky Mountain Song
Arr. by Arthur Hall

You ought to see my Cindy,
She lives away down south,
She's oh, so sweet the honey bees
Swarm around her mouth.

Refrain:
Get along, get along, get along home,
Cindy, I'm goin' to leave you now.
Cindy is a pretty gal, oh, Cindy is a peach;
She threw her arms around my neck
And hung on like a leech.

Refrain:
I went down to Cindy's house,
I did not go to stay;

But when I saw that pretty, little gal,
I just couldn't get away.

Refrain:

BATTLE OF JERICHO

Negro Spiritual
Arr. by Marshall Bartholomew

Joshua fit the battle of Jericho,
And the walls come tumblin' down.

You may talk about your kings of Gideon,
You may talk about your men of Saul,

But there's none like good old Joshua,
At the battle of Jericho,

Right up to the walls of Jericho,
He marched with spear in hand,
"Go blow that ram horn," Joshua cried,
"Cause the battle am in my hand;

Then the lamb, ram, sheep-horns begin to blow,
And the trumpet begin to sound,

Joshua commanded the children to shout,
And the walls come tumbin' down.

POOR WAYFARING STRANGER

Early American White Spiritual
Arr. by George Pullen Jackson and E. J. Gatwood

Solo by Clive L. Dill, Jr.

I am a poor wayfaring stranger
While trav'ling thru this world of woe;
But there's no sickness, toil nor danger
In that bright land to which I go.

I'm going there to see my father,
I'm going there no more to roam;

I'm just a-going over Jordan,
I'm just a-going over home.

I know dark clouds will gather round me,
I know my way is rough and steep;

But golden fields lie out before me,
Where God's redeemed no more shall weep.

I'm going there to see my mother,
She said she'd meet me when I come,

I'll soon be free from ev'ry trial,
My body sleep in the old church-yard.

I'll drop the cross of self denial
And enter on my great reward.

I'm going there to see my Savior,
To sing His praise for evermore,

SWEDISH STUDENT SONG

PAN

FINNISH STUDENT SONG

Finnish poem by Martti Merenmaa.

Väino Haapalainen

English version by George Sjoblom.

Pan plays in woodland in depth of pine,
It is Pan of the mountain and wooded vale;

He dwells with trees in their mossy gloom,
And the sighing of the wind is the playing of Pan.

Pan plays in woodland wilderness,
Pan mourns the fair sylph he loved in his dreams;

But with daylight and morning his visions all vanish
And leave suffering Pan in the lonely vale.

Thru the moonlit night I've heard song so plaintive;
I have seen the wonderland of Pan.

And sometime when lost in woodland gloom,
Pan will guide me to the end of the way.

## MORE WAS LOST AT MOHACS FIELD

HUNGARIAN FOLK SONG

Korbay-Enders

Solo by Stephen Harbachick

Had a horse, a finer no one ever saw,
But the sheriff sold him in the name of law.

E'en a stirrup cup the rascal would not yield,
But no matter, more was lost at Mohács Field.

Had a farmhouse, but they burned it to the ground,
Don't know even where the spot could now be found.

In the county roll 'tis safe inscrib'd and sealed,
But no matter, more was lost at Mohács Field.

Had a sweetheart, mourn'd her loss long years and years,
Thought her dead and ev'ry day gave her my tears.

Now I find her'neath another's roof and shield,
But no matter, more was lost at Mohács Field.

* * *

NOTE: On August 29, 1526, at Mohács, the defeat of the Hungarian army of 25,000 men by 200,000 Turks was one of the greatest disasters in the history of the nation.

## SERENADE IN THE SNOW

SWISS STUDENT SONG

Franciscus Nagler

Dearest, with eyes so bright,
I'm shiv'ring here tonight,

At zero Fahrenheit, beneath your window;

Ah, lend a kindly ear,

My left one's frozen, dear,
My hand's like ice—That's not so nice!

At such low temp'rature,
My love like snow is pure;

I'll freeze to death, I'm sure, upon your doorstep;
Unlock the door to me,

And then I'll thaw, you see,
All safe and warm within your arm!

## A BARN SONG

NORWEGIAN STUDENT SONG

Edvard Grieg

Brumma rumma rumba, Tabby Cat starts a-drumming,
Four little mice then start in to dance,

The earth begins to thunder.

Tabby sat on the house-top,
Had a chat with her daughter:

"Let's go south when winter comes,
Don't you really think that we ought-ter?"

Tabby sat upon the house-top,
Talking with her daughter:

"What are we going to do when winter comes?
We'll shiver, shiver, shiver!

The ice will freeze all our whiskers!"

"We will travel to Denmark,
And buy new shoes for a half a mark,

Dine on pepper and popcorn!

Dine on pepper and popcorn!"

"Copyright 1936, by G. Schirmer, Inc. printed by permission."

# Songs of Yale

## WHIFFENPOOF SONG

Music by Tod Galloway

Words Adapted from Rudyard Kipling's "Gentlemen Rankers"

## 'NEATH THE ELMS

Words by H. Baldwin, 1871.

Arr. by Gustave J. Stoeckel
'64 Hon.

Winds of night around us sighing,
In the elm-trees murmur low,
Let no ruder sounds replying
Break our happy voices flow,
'Tis a jolly life we lead,
Care and trouble we defy;
Let the short-lived hours speed,
Running smoothly, quickly by;
Till the darkness fades away,
And the morning light we hail,
We will sing with cheerful hearts
Songs of home, and of dear old Yale.

Listen! faintly chiming,
O'er the river's placid breast,
Evening bells are ringing,
Calling us to rest.

See, the full moon, rising, weaves
Robes of light o'er tower and hall,
Thro' the slowly lifting leaves
Silver lances flash and fall,
Louder yet the chorus raise,
Friendship lasts when youth must fail;
Jolly, jolly are the days
'Neath the elms of dear old Yale.

## NOAH WEBSTER

Words by Fairfax Downey, '16 Marshall Bartholomew, '07S

In the Class of 1778
Was a student at Yale College,
Who taught himself to tootle on the flute
While his tutors taught him knowledge.
A lively lad, He could make the heart
Of a fair colonial deb stir
At a promenade, or a gay charade,
And his name was Noah Webster.

Refrain:
Here's to Noah Webster!
He wrote no fiction airy,
But a mighty dictionary.
First he got his education as a good Yale man
Then he put the King's English into good American,
So here's to Noah Webster!

When General Washington came to town,
Bound for Cambridge, of all places!
The Yale militia turned right out
To be put through warlike paces.
A-piping away on his trusty flute
In the van of the whole caboodle,

Noah stepped out proud, playing good and loud,
Fav'ring George with Yankee Doodle! (Refrain)

Noah Webster dashed a grammar off,
And a speller was his next book,
When ignorance reared its hydra-head
Noah cracked it with a text book.
No matter if a word's as tough
As plenipotentiary,
From A to Z you can find the key
In the Webster Dictionary. (Refrain)

## I ARISE FROM DREAMS OF THEE

Poem by Percy Bysshe Shelley

Music by L. B. Tourtellot, '83

Solo by J. W. Tracey, Jr.

I arise from dreams of thee,
In the first sweet sleep of night,
When the winds are breathing low,
And the stars are shining bright.

I arise from dreams of thee,
And a spirit in my feet
Hath led me, who knows how?
To thy chamber window, sweet.

The wandering airs they faint
On the dark, the silent stream,
And the Champak's odours fail,
Like sweet thoughts in a dream;

The nightingale's complaint,
It dies upon her heart;

As I must on thine,
O! beloved as thou art!

## SWITZERBOY

Double Yodel by J. B. C. Thomas and W. S. Coffin

## BRIGHT COLLEGE YEARS

Words by H. S. Durand, 81.

Music by Carl Wilhelm

Bright college years, with pleasures rife,
The shortest, gladdest years of life;
How swiftly are ye gliding by!
Oh, why doth time so quickly fly?
The seasons come, the seasons go,
The earth is green or white with snow,
But time and change shall naught avail,
To break the friendships formed at Yale.

In after years, should trouble rise,
To cloud the blue of sunny skies,
How bright will seem, thro' mem'rys haze,
The happy, golden, bygone days!
Oh, let us strive that ever we
May let these words our watchery be,

Where'er upon life's sea we sail:
"For God, for Country, and for Yale."

From "Songs of Yale", compiled and edited by Marshall Bartholomew.
