FREEDOM!
From that seed a tree grew, is growing, will ever grow.
The plow plowed a new furrow
"You are a man. Together we are building our land."
The plan and the pattern is here,
For all America, forall the world.
Keep Your Hand On The Plow! Hold On!
Keep your hand on the plow! Hold on!
Into that furrow the freedom seed was dropped.
Dream nourished in common,
THAN TOLIVE SLAVES.
And conquer us from within,
Woven from the beginning
If the house is not yet finished,
Dont be weary, soldier!
We say, NO!
Into the warp and woof of America:
NO MAN IS GOOD ENOUGH
Land created in common,
But there is, somewhere there,
An enslaved people heading toward freedom
A long time ago,
Always the trying to understand,
The people do not always understand each other.
America!
Who is America? You, me!
To the enemy who would conquer us from without,
That tree is for everybody,
ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL.
Across the field of history.
Great thoughts in their deepest hearts
BROTHERHOOD!
We say, NO!
And sometimes only blunderingly express them,
To the enemy who would divide
BETTER DIE FREE,
And faultily put them into practice.
DEMOCRACY!
Haltingly and stumblingly say them,
If the fight is not yet won,
Who owns those words? America!
Dont be discouraged, builder!
We are America!
WITHOUT HIS CONSENT.
Who said those things? Americans!
And the trying to say,
Made up a song:
To all the enemies of these great words:
TO GOVERN ANOTHER MAN
We say, NO!
