|
Guard of the free, We'll cherish thee, And keep thee bright forever !
What checks the knave ?
The sword! What smites to save?
The sword ! What wreaks the wrong Unpunished long, At last, upon the guilty strong ?
The sword!
CHORUS
Then cease thy proud task never, etc.
What shelters Right? The sword! What makes it might ? The sword! What strikes the crown Of tyrants down, And answers with its flash their frown ? The sword !
CHORUS
Then cease thy proud task never, etc.
Still be thou true,
Good sword! We'll die or do,
Good sword ! |
