Lavender, My Lavender

Sturdy sons of City College, 
Trusty hearts and mighty hands, 
Rally where your streaming banner 
With its dauntless emblem stands. 
Send a cheer to Heaven Ringing, 
Voicing in a fond acclaim. 
Faith and pride in Alma Mater 
And her never dying fame. 

Lavender, my Lavender! Lavender, my Lavender! 
On the field of life's endeavor 
Bound by ties that naught can sever, 
Hail we Alma Mater ever, Lavender, my Lavender! 

Daughters wise of City College, 
Join your voices in the song. 
To the lusty cheers of brothers,
Add your effort clear and strong. 
Send a hymn to Heaven Singing,
Filled with love and fond acclaim, 
Faith and pride in Alma Mater 
And her never dying fame

Lavender, my Lavender! Lavender, my Lavender! 
On the field of life's endeavor 
Bound by ties that naught can sever, 
Hail we Alma Mater ever, Lavender, my Lavender!

Words by Elias Lieberman 1903 
Music by Walter R. Johnson 1903
