O Heidelberg, dear Heidelberg, thy sons will ne'er forget,
The golden haze of student days is round about us yet.
Those days of yore will come no more, while through our manly years,
The thought of you, so good, so true, will fill our eyes with tears.

Test as set by Charles F Shattuck:
Here's to the land that gave me birth,
here's to the flag she flies,
Here's to her sons, the best of earth,
here's to her smiling skies,
Here's to a heart that beats for me true as the stars above,
Here's to the day when mine she'll be,
here's to the girl I love...
O Heidelberg, dear Heidelberg, thy sons will ne'er forget,
The golden haze of student days is round about us yet.
Those days of yore will come no more, while through our manly years,
The thought of you, so good, so true, will fill our eyes with tears.
