:"Sing to the colors that float in the light;":"Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!":"Yellow the stars as they ride through the night":"And reel in a rollicking crew;":"Yellow the fields where ripens the grain":"And yellow the moon on the harvest wain;":"Hail!":"Hail to the colors that float in the light":"Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!"
:"Blue are the billows that bow to the sun":"When yellow robed morning is due.":"Blue are the curtains that evening has spun":"The slumbers of Phoebus to woo;":"Blue are the blossoms to memory dear":"And blue is the sapphire and gleams like a tear;":"Hail!":"Hail to the ribbons that nature has spun;":"Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!"
:"Here's to the college whose colors we wear,":"Here's to the hearts that are true!":"Here's to the maid of the golden hair,":"And eyes that are brimming with blue!":"Garlands of bluebells and maize intertwine,":"And hearts that are true and voices combine;":"Hail!":"Hail to the college whose colors we wear;":"Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!"
