Lavender, My Lavender
Words by Elias Lieberman 1903
Music by Walter R. Johnson 1903

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.
