1. Gov’t. High School Mamfe Beloved Alma Mater
Standing by the banks of Manyu in the hinterland.
Where we come together from all over the country,
To contribute in the building of our Fatherland.
Gov’t. High School Mamfe Alma Mater
Gov’t. High School Mamfe Alma Mater
May your products ever be the light of the Nation
Contributing in the building of our Fatherland.
2. We began in sixty nine with stumbling blocks before us,
Sheltered with uncertainty about many things.
Still we faced with patience the daily task before us
And waited for the closing bell at two as it rang.
Gov’t. High School Mamfe Alma Mater
Gov’t. High School Mamfe Alma Mater
May your products ever be the light of the Nation
Contributing in the building of our Fatherland.
3. Still in that 69 we had so many problems.
Amongst them was that of accommodation.
Many thanks to Madam Orock who gave us her hotel,
As the first dormitory of GSS Mamfe.
Gov’t. High School Mamfe Alma Mater
Gov’t. High School Mamfe Alma Mater
May your products ever be the light of the Nation
Contributing in the building of our Fatherland.
4. Through the hands of Principals who struggled for our welfare,
We were able to subdue the burden all along.
And today we sing with pride of Gov’t. High School Mamfe
Standing by the banks of Manyu in the hinterland.
Gov’t. High School Mamfe Alma Mater
Gov’t. High School Mamfe Alma Mater
May your products ever be the light of the Nation
Contributing in the building of our Fatherland.
