| 1st— | We are jolly little sailors; Join us as we come; We'll bear the flag of proud old Spain, And we will beat a drum! |
| 2d— | We are jolly little sailors, And we pause to say, We raise the bonny flag of Spain Upon Columbus Day. |
| 2d— | We are jolly little sailors; Raise the red, the white, the blue; Though we honor brave Columbus, To our own flag we are true. |
| All— | (Beat drum and wave flag) Salute the banners, one and all, O raise them once again; Salute the red, the white, the blue, Salute the flag of Spain! For countries old and countries new, We will wave the red, the white, the blue! |
Recitation
(By eight girls carrying banners that bear letters spelling "Columbus")
| C | Columbus sailed o'er waters blue, |
| O | On and on to countries new. |
| L | Long the ships sailed day and night, |
| U | Until at last land came in sight. |
| M | Many hearts were filled with fear, |
| B | But the land was drawing near. |
| U | Upon the ground they knelt at last |
| S | So their dangers all were past. |
| All | Wave the banners bright and gay, We meet to keep Columbus Day |
Crowning Columbus
(Recitation by four children. Picture of Columbus on easel. Children place on it evergreen and flower wreaths and flags)
| 1st— | Crown him with a wreath of evergreen, The very fairest ever seen— Our brave Columbus. |
| 2d— | Crown him with flowers fresh and fair; We'll place them by his picture there— Our brave Columbus. |
| 3d— | Crown him with the flag of Spain; Columbus day has come again— Our brave Columbus. |
| 4th— | Crown him with red, and white, and blue; Bring out the drum and banners too— Our brave Columbus. |
| All— | As we stand by his picture here, Columbus' name we all revere— Our brave Columbus. |
