Hail, Freedom! thy bright crest

And gleaming shield, thrice blest,

Mirror the glories of a world thine own.

Hail, heaven-born Peace! our sight,

Led by thy gentle light,

Shows us the paths with deathless flowers strewn.

Peace, daughter of a strife sublime,

Abide with us till strife be lost in endless time.

Her one hand seals with gold

The portals of night’s fold,
