Men of the North, who remember The deeds of your sires, ever glorious, Join in our pÆan victorious, The pÆan of Liberty! Hark! on the gales of November, Millions of voices are ringing, Glorious the song they are singing— Lincoln and Victory! Hurrah! Join the great chorus they’re singing, Lincoln and Victory! Come from your forest-clad mountains, Come from the fields of your tillage, Come from city and village— Join the great host of the free Roll the deep floods to the ocean, Join the great army in motion, Marching to Victory! Hurrah! Echo from ocean to ocean, Lincoln and Victory! Far in the West rolls the thunder, The tumult of battle is raging, Where the sons of Freedom are waging Warfare with Slavery! Struggling with foes who would bind them, Lo! they implore you to stay them! Will you to Slavery betray them No! no! they shall be free! Hurrah! Swear that you’ll never betray them— Never! they shall be free! Men of the North, who remember The deeds of our sires, ever glorious, Join in our pÆan victorious, The pÆan of Liberty! Hark! on the gales of November, Millions of voices are ringing, Glorious the song they are singing— Lincoln and Victory! Hurrah! Join the great chorus they’re singing, Lincoln and Victory! |
