The School Song
Oh the world is full of high schools
But there's one that is my own
It's the school that teaches courage
Even though one stands alone
It's the School that lives the motto
That all men should equal be
Of all the schools around the earth
This is the school for me!


Refrain:
School of mine, mine, mine
Oh school of mine, mine, mine
From Darjeeling to Srinagar
From the palm tree to the pine
With the old girls standing by you
There's no foe can e'er defy you
School of mine
School of mine
School of mine, mine, mine


Oh we think of morning studies
And examinations too
Showing clearly to our teachers
How well our work we do


Now her daughters rise in legions
And bless those golden days
When their voices echoed freely
As they ran to evening play
And think of singing contests
When they brought the cup away


From East to West
CGHS is the Best
Right Gladly do they say!
