The Kan Yuk sa Chapter Song

from the Chairman of American Music, 1954-1955

​

Long Kan Yuk sa's noble red men

loved our everglades

though they all have passed and gone now

memory never fades

​

Hail! Kan Yuk sa!

Our Kan Yuk sa!

time and tide may fail

but our hearts will love thee ever

Hail! Kan Yuk sa! Hail!

​

Far have worthy, trusting daughters

seen Kan Yuk sa's flame

knowing well 'twill fail them never

honor well their name

​

Hail! Kan Yuk sa!

Our Kan Yuk sa!

time and tide may fail

but our hearts will love thee ever

Hail! Kan Yuk sa! Hail!

​

Sacred ties can ne'er be broken

when the day is done

while we live we'll ever cherish

friendships here begun

​

Hail! Kan Yuk sa!

Our Kan Yuk sa!

time and tide may fail

but our hearts will love thee ever

Hail! Kan Yuk sa! Hail!
