The College Anthem

Hurrah Hurrah My TVMC

The portal dear, you are our life

We have grown in your womb

To learn the art and master strife

The healing touch and the finesse.

You were born, long before

We reached your shore to enjoin

Your founded class, the tvmcian

Of the selfless spirit, to endear and adore.

In a city so far, from the towers of power

You live with nature, to give who implore

The fairy sight and angels touch

For all who see in you a mother of care.

We have come, as many and more

For all shall of us and them be

Your kinsman and clan ever

And shall be yours as till we live.

You are the sun, to all our hearts

As the moon our dreams shall light

The life of the haves and the not

Yet soft and silent you shall flow.

Hurrah! Hurrah! My TVMC
