Your Empire is under a shadow;

But well opened up, by ships, railways, and Krupp,

It will turn out a true El Dorado.

Don't fly to your door! Eh? your pigtail is sore?

You think me a cocky invader?

Why you'll find in the end I'm your very best friend,

When I force you to be a free trader.

Blow your grandfather's bunkum, you Heathen Chinee!

Take down all your shutters, and hand me the key!

For my use alone? you inquire with a groan.
