Far above Cayuga's waters,
With its waves of blue,
Stands our noble alma-mater,
Glorious to view.

Refrain:
Lift the chorus, speed it on-ward
Loud her praises tell;
Hail to thee, our alma mater!
Hail, all hail, Cornell!

Far above the busy humming,
Of the bustling town,
Reared against the arch of heaven,
Looks she proudly down.

Refrain
