They claim’d them as their own and ours.
And when a Prince of foreign lands
His warriors poured upon our strands,
They spurned the lordlings from their fields,
And o’er their homes still held their shields.
Then wave the Flag, our Fathers’ Flag,
In memories of their bravery;
Then shout the Flag, our Fathers’ Flag,
The Star-gemmed Flag of brave hearts and the free.
CHORUS.
