In many lands and climes this April day Proud sons of Texas A&M unite. Our loyalty to country, school, we pray,and seal our pact with bond of common might.
We live again those happy days of yore on campus, field, in classroom, dorm, at drill
Fond memory brings a sigh -- but nothing more; Now we are men and life’s a greater thrill,
Before we part and go upon our way,We pause to honor those we knew so well; The old familiar faces we miss so much today Left cherished recollections that time cannot dispel.
Softly call the Muster, Let comrade answer, “Here!” Their spirits hover ‘round us As if to bring us cheer!
Mark them ‘present’ in our hearts. We’ll meet some other day. There is no death, but life etern
For our old friends such as they!
by Dr. John Ashton ‘06
