1.Hurrah for our home in the mountains!~
Hurrah for the monarchs of snow!
For the land of the forests and
fountains,
and the torrents that ever flow!(bis)
Toil up from the valley below;
"Lift your heart" to the breeze and the
glow;
And our school on the hill
Here's a cheer for it still, Hurrah!
As onwards through life we go!
2.From the sweltering South and the Islands,
From the plains where the hot winds
blow,
We have met in the heart of the
highlands
At fair India's gates of snow.(bis)
3.Here`s a hand to a faltering brother,
Here's a lift for the lame and the
slow,
And we'll stand, boys, like men to
each other
As onwards through life we go.(bis)

The two words that many change are
`GLOW~. They seem to think it is 'snow'. The other is the pronunciation
of the word 'WIND'. The poetical pronunciation of the word is the
correct one: WIND LIKE IN UNWIND.
