Gymnasium anthem and slogan

             RES  NON   VERBA

Žodžiai M. Jankūnienės
Muzika J. Lyguto

Gimnazijos vario varpelis
Nuo seno skardžiai tebeskamba.
Išeinančius lydi į kelią,
Ateinantiems viltį paskelbia.

Pried.

Res non verba /2k.
Mūsų vėliavoj!
Res non verba /2k.
Širdyje jaunoj!

Mums ainiai istoriją mena,
Gyva atmintim kalba sienos.
Čia viskas taip tikra ir sava
Ir daugeliui metų praėjus.

Pried.

Jaunam čia idėjų pasaulis
Ir katarsis minčiai kūrėjo.
Tad švieski, Gimnazijos saule!
Mes viltį uždegt Tau atėjom!

Pried.
