Hail to Alma Mater!
We will sing thy praise forever;
All thy sons and daughters
Pledge thee victory and honor.
Alma Mater, praise be thine,
May thy name forever shine!
Hail to Purple! Hail to White!
Hail to thee, Northwestern!

[Verse 1]
Quaecumque sunt vera,
Proba, justa, mera,
Omnia haec dona
Praebes nobis bona
Alma Mater cara,
Benedicta, clara,
Celsa in honore
Nostro et amore!
[Verse 2]
Mater O benigna,
Praestans tu et digna;
Custos juventutis,
Fida dux virtutis;
Gratias agentes,
Pie reverentes;
Penitus amamus
Deo te mandamus.
