Thy spirit first to life awoke - In eighteen hundred and thirty five Beneath the sway of Marsh and Boake - Thenceforth did Lanka's learning thrive (Refrain:) School where our fathers, Learnt the way before us Learnt of Books and Learnt of Men Through thee we'll do the same True to our watchword "Disce Aut Discede" We will learn of books and men and learn to play the game Within thy shade our fathers trod - The path that leads to man's estate They have repaid the debt they owed - They kept thy fame inviolate And we their loyal sons now bear - The torch with hearts as sound as oak Our lusty throats now raise a cheer - For Hartley, Harward, Marsh and Boake
