AVE, SUFFOLK!
Hail to thee! _Our Alma Mater,
At thy shrine, we honor thee.
Thou hast fostered our ambition,
Stalwart now our fealty.
When alone we tread life's journey,
Thine the star that guides our way.
1n our hearts thy name resounding:
S-U-F-F-0-L-K !
When the tocsin sounds for duty,
Wrongs to right, the weak to fend ,
In the spirit of our founder
Valiant, we the foe shall rend.
Never shall our colors falter
In the forefront of the fray,
Stout of heart, thy loyal legion:
S-U-F-F-0-L-K !
We who now thy praise~. singing
Soon shall doff the glist'ning shield.
Time may weaken sturdy sinews,
But our hearts shall never yield.
Other hands may bear thy standard
And the shock of battle stay;
Still invincible our courage:
S-U-F-F-0-L-K !
