This is the song of the wind as it came	A
Tossing the flags of the nations to flame	A
	-
I am the breath of God I am His laughter	B
I am His Liberty That is my name	A
	-
So it descended at night on the city	C
So it went lavishing beauty and pity	C
Lighting the lordliest street of the world	D
With half of the banners that earth has unfurled	D
Over the lamps that are brighter than stars	E
Laughing aloud on its way to the wars	F
Proud as America sweeping along	G
Death and destruction like notes in a song	G
Leaping to battle as man to his mate	H
Joyous as God when he moved to create	H
Never was voice of a nation so glorious	I
Glad of its cause and afire with its fate	H
Never did eagle on mightier pinion	J
Tower to the height of a brighter dominion	J
Kindling the hope of the prophets to flame	A
Calling aloud on the deep as it came	A
	-
Cleave me a way for an army with banners	K
I am His Liberty That is my name	A
	-
Know you the meaning of all they are doing	L
Know you the light that their soul is pursuing	L
Know you the might of the world they are making	L
This nation of nations whose heart is awaking	L
What is this mingling of peoples and races	M
Look at the wonder and joy in their faces	M
Look how the folds of the union are spreading	L
Look for the nations are come to their wedding	L
How shall the folk of our tongue be afraid of it	N
England was born of it England was made of it	N
Made of this welding of tribes into one	J
This marriage of pilgrims that followed the sun	J
Briton and Roman and Saxon were drawn	O
By winds of this Pentecost out of the dawn	O
Westward to make her one people of many	C
But here is a union more mighty than any	C
Know you the soul of this deep exultation	C
Know you the word that goes forth to this nation	C
	-
I am the breath of God I am His Liberty	C
Let there be light over all His creation	C
	-
Over this Continent wholly united	P
They that were foemen in Europe are plighted	P
Here in a league that our blindness and pride	P
Doubted and flouted and mocked and denied	P
Dawns the Republic the laughing gigantic	L
Europe united beyond the Atlantic	L
That is America speaking one tongue	L
Acting her epics before they are sung	L
Driving her rails from the palms to the snow	C
Through States that are greater than Emperors know	C
Forty eight States that are empires in might	P
But ruled by the will of one people tonight	P
Nerved as one body with net works of steel	Q
Merging their strength in the one Commonweal	Q
Brooking no poverty mocking at Mars	E
Building their cities to talk with the stars	E
Thriving increasing by myriads again	C
Till even in numbers old Europe may wane	C
How shall a son of the England they fought	P
Fail to declare the full pride of his thought	P
Stand with the scoffers who year after year	R
Bring the Republic their half hidden sneer	R
Now as in beauty she stands at our side	P
Who shall withhold the full gift of his pride	P
Not the great England who knows that her son	C
Washington fought her and Liberty won	C
England whose names like the stars in their station	C
Stand at the foot of that world's Declaration	C
Washington Livingston Langdon she claims them	S
It is her right to be proud when she names them	S
Proud of that voice in the night as it came	A
Tossing the flags of the nations to flame	A
	-
I am the breath of God I am His laughter	B
I am His Liberty That is my name	A
	-
Flags in themselves are but rags that are dyed	P
Flags in that wind are like nations enskied	P
See how they grapple the night as it rolls	T
And trample it under like triumphing souls	T
Over the city that never knew sleep	U
Look at the riotous folds as they leap	U
Thousands of tri colors laughing for France	V
Ripple and whisper and thunder and dance	V
Thousands of flags for Great Britain aflame	A
Answer their sisters in Liberty's name	A
Belgium is burning in pride overhead	P
Poland is near and her sunrise is red	P
Under and over and fluttering between	C
Italy burgeons in red white and green	C
See how they climb like adventurous flowers	K
Over the tops of the terrible towers	K
There in the darkness the glories are mated	P
There in the darkness a world is created	P
There in this Pentecost streaming on high	W
There with a glory of stars in the sky	W
There the broad flag of our union and liberty	P
Rides the proud night wind and tyrannies die	W
