School Song
HEIDELBERG PUBLIC SCHOOL
SCHOOL SONG
The murmuring trees enfold us'
the purple mountain belt
Stands sentinel between us
and the encroaching veld;
And just upon the sky-line,
not very far away,
The stately Suikerbos holds
everything in sway.
We left our homes behind us,
we came from far and near;
From koppie, kloof and
homestead, the School
has bought us here.
In fellowship She binds us,
in hope She sends us forth.
Her spirit shall uphold us
in days of peace or wrath.
To honour courage greatly,
be it in friend or foe;
To love the land which bore us
wherever we may go;
Uphold our School's dear honour
through all the years to be,
And by our lives
secure Her immortality.
