Sahara! Sang Through the hours of work and pleasure, We have spent together here, Building up the golden treasure of success That's e'er so dearg Struggling straight and ever onward, With our motto strong and bright We are bound to fight as comrades, For our colors, green and white. Fleeting time will serve to sever, Ties we've ever held so dear, Others will be bound together Close in friendship and good cheer, But therc's nothing e'er can shake us From our pledge of loyalty And the battles will but take us Through the joys of victory. Far beyond the dear, old school days, Looking back on mem'ries dear, They'll be more than golden rule days, Seen thru reason's vision clear As we fight in lifc's great battles, Striving ever for the right, Then we'll praise our Alma Mater, And her colors green and white. llil
