he 197 I Cercis Born free, as Free as the Wind blows, as Free as the Grass grows, Born free to Follow your Heart. Bom free, and Beauty surrounds You, The world Still astounds You, each time You look at a Star. Stay free, where No walls divide You, You're free As a roaring Tide, so there's No need to hide. Born free, and Life is worth Living - But only Worth living, ’Cause you're Born free.

That surround us here today And we will not forget. Though we be far, far away. To the hallowed Halls of Ivy Every voice will bid farewell. And shimmer off in twilight Like the old vesper bell. One day a hush will fall. The footsteps of us all Will echo down the hall And disappear. But as we sadly start Our journey far apart, A part of every heart Will linger here. In the sacred Halls of Ivy Where we've lived and learned to know. That through the years we'U see you In the sweet after glo.
