A venerated abode of learning

From humble wattle and daub To a venerated abode,

It was the singular vision

Of a strong-willed lady

That raised the turrets of Mother Musaeus,

To open for the girl-child

The enlightening paths of education,

From the philanthropy of forefathers

Her foundations were strengthened,

Illuminated with the mores Of integrity, tolerance and equanimity

Preached by the Enlightened One, Your lessons did not let us falter In childhood, burgeoning youth And beyond in the realms of the world,

Holding light to darkness.
