Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE GHIJIKKI ILKIMINI IHOPIQRISIT| Six years on foot | A |
| Through far and hurdling paths like wilderness | B |
| My secondary learning root | C |
| Which taught me to taste and endure bitterness | B |
| Oh my brain of rational thoughts | D |
| In the mornings it felt cold but fresh | E |
| And in the noons hot but full of competence | F |
| Yet I in wisdom remained afresh | E |

| My shirt white was not as it was | G |
| The trousers blue black could hardly its colour survive | H |
| Of them were made other fashions | I |
| And the prescribed white shoes to serve | J |
| Pedestrianizing both on rocky roads and tars | I |
| Loosing its first fine form gradually | K |
| I should always to say thanks and sorry | K |
| We Trinitarians were a mere picture of the colonial missionaries | I |

| In school we lunched our books | I |
| As we were often empty in pocket | L |
| We would go hungry and return angry | K |
| Battled we with school's ups and downs | I |
| Nothing to better to eat | M |
| But either drank groceries | I |
| Or fill our stomachs with water from the bloody tap | N |
| Those days were best but not happiest to us | I |

| The school Holy Trinity would never be the weak's | I |
| For only the strongest could survive | H |
| Some would exit or fall out | O |
| It'd always be the best | P |
| Entity of extreme excellence | I |
| All boys sound and brimmed | Q |
| Catapult of coiling character | R |
| All boys virtuous and righteous | I |
| Today we are proud alumni | S |
| Eligible to rendering to our country services | I |
| To prove that we did learn from the school | T |
