O stars of Freedom’s banner bright
That clustered shine in field of blue.
From faint, far depths of heaven’s
height
Your constellated fires you drew!
From starry ways of ages down
You bring the light of old renown!
Greece first your dawn-bright radiance
knew
When Freedom’s star rose o’er the
deep,
And Athens’ glory full orbed grew
When Parthenon crowned the Acrop­
olis steep.
The fame of Greece then brightly shone
With splendor since through ages
known.
Bu: kindled by Promethean fire
O’er other lands rose Freedom’s
stars.
Unquenched by blood, they still aspire
Where far beyond the old world
bars
They rose above the new world bright
And blent as one their kindred light.
Long may these stars undimmed still
shine
In Freedom’s glorious galaxyl
Long may our land still be the shrine
To all the world of Liberty,
Whose statue stands at Freedom’s
gates
And for the coming millions wails!
