Representative lyrics
English (Original Language)
1. M. I. A., we hail thee! Loud thy praise we sing; For thy loving guidance We our homage bring; Founded by a prophet On the rock of truth, May thy light and glory Diadem our youth.
Ever, ever onward, God shall light thy way, Glorious is thy promise, Beloved M. I. A., M. I. A.
2. Flower of the desert. Fragrant is thy bloom, Blest with God’s own sunshine, Radiant as the moon. ’Neath thy heaven-wrought banner, March the brave and free. For thy righteous standards, Hail, all hail, to thee!
Ever, ever onward, God shall light thy way, Glorious is thy promise, Beloved M. I. A., M. I. A.
