Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds, and shall find, me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll. I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul. William Ernest Henley

63. Kappa of My Dreams

William Henry Green When, with the break of day Each Brother, as he kneels to pray Will mention Kappa in his say That's the Kappa of my Dreams; And 'ere the noonday sun is high Will pause and think of KAY And perform some deed in Phi Nu Pi, That's the Kappa of my Dreams When each member shows he cares How every other Kappa fares And our obligation jointly shares, That's the Kappa of my Dreams; And when Greeks from every place Admit that Kappa leads the race And our Achievements set the pace, That's the Kappa of my Dreams. When inscribed upon the campus scroll And on every college honor roll The name of each youth in our fold, That's the Kappa of my Dreams; And when in every place you roam Any territory you may comb You'll find each Chapter with its home That's the Kappa of my Dreams And when the evening shadows fall All Kappas will answer to the call And over the meeting hall, That's the Kappa of my Dreams; And when every Brother knows our laws And is so dedicated to the cause That the Grand Polemarch may be chosen By drawing straws, That's the Kappa of my Dreams.

Sweetheart Song

You're as pretty as a picture, And as sweet as you can be. I love you so sincerely, You're all the world to me. And if ever I should lose you, It would surely break my heart; For I love you, I adore you, You're my Kappa Alpha Psi Sweetheart. You are fairer than the fairest, I have loved you all the while; I know you're a Kappa Darling, 'Cause you've got that Kappa style. Fate must never let me lose you, Fate must never let us part; For I love you, I adore you, You're my Kappa Alpha Psi Sweetheart. You should never feel discouraged, Never lonely, sad or blue; Each day you're near my darling, Each night I dream of you. And if ever I should lose you, It would surely break my heart; For I love you, I adore you, You're my Kappa Alpha Psi Sweetheart.
