Sing the Chorale

Daughters of a great and singing nation,

Let your voices rise in dedication,

Music Tells unspoken noble creeds;

Music beautifies the simplest deed,

Sing we now to Sigma Alpha Iota.

 

Sing the greatness of the soul and spirit,

Sing the joy of peace and friendship’s merit,

Music is a kind and truthful speech;

In a language out of mere word’s reach,

Sing we now to Sigma Alpha Iota.
