"for boston, for boston we sing our proud refrain
for boston, for boston, 'tis wisdom's earthly fame
for here all are one and our hearts are true
and the towers on the heights reach the heavens' own blue
for boston, for boston 'til the echoes ring again!
for boston, for boston thy glory is our own
for boston, for boston 'tis here that truth is known
and ever with a right shall our heirs be found
'til time shall be no more and thy work is crowned
for boston, for boston thy glory is our own!"
