The Anthem of Alpha Kappa Psi
Tune: Auld Lang Syne
(1)
Should old acquaintance be forgot;
And Alpha Kappa Psi?
Shall we pass slowly out of view
Without Regret or sigh?
Chorus
For Alpha Kappa Psi, my friend, for Alpha Kappa Psi
We'll bless the days that we have spent
In Alpha Kappa Psi
(2)
We'll work with might and main to win
Our meed of daily praise,
But ne'er shall we in after years
Forget fraternal days.
Chorus |
