We have a dream
It is a dream brimming with nectar
The nectar of hope
Hope that California gets better
The hope for us
An educational goal to be fulfilled
The goal for you
A prosperous community to be built
It is the future of young Californians
Longing to be molded
It is the voice of us students
Waiting to be heard
It might get too late
For the mold is getting dry
tis the right time indeed
Before things go awry!
Eight score years ago came the 49'ers
In search of precious gold
Now here we come, the 09'ers
In our quest for education, we are told
O! leaders of the golden state
We come to you seeking this chance
In turn will we nourish
The posterity, which will flourish
We thank you for this golden opportunity
Of our belief in dreams coming alive
Young pupils like us proclaim,
"Californian education let thrive!"
There rings an echo somewhere out there
"Save us a spot! Save us a spot!"
It comes from voices filled with aspirations
Oh! California, do you hear us not?
YOU can make the difference
The paramount one in our lives
By saving us a spot in college
The sea through which we'll dive
YOU can make the difference
For us by opening the door
By saving us a spot in college
By letting our state soar
YOU can make the difference
Where dream and success coincide
By saving us a spot in college
"Long live Californian pride!"
Beyond the yonder of the present
There lies a vast ocean ahead
tis the ocean of fulfilled dreams
Dreams of California's success!
