Our School Song
Ons leer saam ‘n toekoms bou,
by Bryanston Parallel Medium.
Dis ons tweede huis, ‘n plek van groei.
Geplant. Gewater. Gesnoei.
Solank ons saamstaan: hand-aan-hand
Knieë gebuig: ‘Heer seën ons land!”
Eenheid met diversiteit,
ons heg waarde aan waarheid.
Ons reënboognasie- ons inspirasie
Hier wil ons bly:
ESPRIT DE CORPS!
We’re guided to a brighter future,
at Bryanston Parallel Medium.
It’s our second home, where there’s room to bloom.
Planted. Watered. Pruned.
We’re standing together hand in hand
on our knees: Lord, bless our land!
Here we welcome diversity,
and we value unity.
Our rainbow-nation, our inspiration
we’ll stay the course:
ESPRIT DE CORPS!
