Fair Harvard Lyrics by Harvard University

Alma Mater & Fight Song

1836

[Verse 1]
Fair Harvard! We join in thy Jubilee throng
And with blessings surrender thee o'er
By these Festival-rites, from the Age that is past
To the Age that is waiting before
O Relic and Type of our ancestors' worth
That hast long kept their memory warm
First flow'r of their wilderness! Star of their night!
Calm rising thro' change and thro' storm

[Verse 2]
Farewell! Be thy destinies onward and bright!
To thy children the lesson still give
With freedom to think, and with patience to bear
And for Right ever bravely to live
Let not moss-covered Error moor thee at its side
As the world on Truth's current glides by
Be the herald of Light, and the bearer of Love
'Til the stars in the firmament die
