Loreto Chorus

  1. To East and West of that fair Isle
    Where the first Loreto stands,
    Loreto's banner now doth fly in many distant lands
    In sunny Spain,on Afric's strand
    Under the southern Cross
    And Westward Ho,where rainbow hued
    Niagara's waters toss.

    Chorus:
    Loreto's banner gaily floats
    In lands both East and West
    Loreto's name each girl reveres.
    And holds it ever blest.

  2. But first Loreto found a home beneath our Indian skies
    Where now o'er plain and mountain peak
    The well loved banner flies
    Loreto's standard bearers we
    In girlhood's springtime gay,
    O may we e'er be loyal and true
    To the school friends of today

  3. And when our school days ended are
    And our varied paths divide,
    Oh may the ideals of our youth
    Still ever be our guide,
    High ideals of purity,of duty and of truth
    Learnt while we bore Loreto's flag
    In the sunny days of youth.
