Hail to Thee, our fair Cornell . . .

Cornell University -- Ithaca, New York

THE EVENING SONG

When the sun fades far away

In the crimson of the west,

And the voices of the day

Murmur low and sink to rest.

Music with the twilight falls

O're the beaming lake and dell,

'Tis an echo from the walls
Of our own, our fair Cornell.

Welcome night and welcome rest,
Fading music fair thee well.
Joy to all we love the best,
Love to thee our fair Cornell.

Music with the twilight falls

O're the beaming lake and dell,

'Tis an echo from the walls
Of our own, our fair Cornell.
