(draft school song for the Geneva School of Diplomacy)

Alma Mater GSD

Geneva, land of learning,
tribune of human rights,.
we come to thee in yearning
to climb your many heights.

Here cultures come together,
high above the Lac Leman,
friendships are forever,
here at the Château de Penthes.

We raise our voices with esteem
for cheerful peers and faculty.
Together we make quite a team,
with pride we hail Thee, GSD!

Oh Alma Mater GSD,
inspire us now to grow and be
the leaders we can surely be
to better serve humanity.

Oh Alma Mater GSD,
we pledge ourselves to Thee,
and sing our anthem full of hope:
our future can surpass this hope.
