Oh that the golden lyre divine	A
Whence David smote flame tones were mine	A
Oh that the silent harp which hung	B
Untuned unstrung	B
Upon the willows by the river	C
Would throb beneath my touch and quiver	C
With the old song enchanted spell	D
Of Israel	E
	-
Oh that the large prophetic Voice	F
Would make my reed piped throat its choice	F
All ears should prick all hearts should spring	B
To hear me sing	B
The burden of the isles the word	G
Assyria knew Damascus heard	G
When like the wind while cedars shake	B
Isaiah spake	B
	-
For I would frame a song to day	H
Winged like a bird to cleave its way	H
O'er land and sea that spread between	I
To where a Queen	I
Sits with a triple coronet	J
Genius and Sorrow both have set	J
Their diadems above the gold	K
A Queen three fold	K
	-
To her the forest lent its lyre	L
Hers are the sylvan dews the fire	C
Of Orient suns the mist wreathed gleams	M
Of mountain streams	M
She the imperial Rhine's own child	N
Takes to her heart the wood nymph wild	N
The gypsy Pelech and the wide	O
White Danube's tide	O
	-
She who beside an infant's bier	P
Long since resigned all hope to hear	P
The sacred name of Mother bless	Q
Her childlessness	Q
Now from a people's sole acclaim	R
Receives the heart vibrating name	R
And Mother Mother Mother fills	Q
The echoing hills	Q
	-
Yet who is he who pines apart	S
Estranged from that maternal heart	S
Ungraced unfriended and forlorn	T
The butt of scorn	T
An alien in his land of birth	U
An outcast from his brethren's earth	U
Albeit with theirs his blood mixed well	D
When Plevna fell	D
	-
When all Roumania's chains were riven	V
When unto all his sons was given	V
The hero's glorious reward	W
Reaped by the sword	W
Wherefore was this poor thrall whose chains	Q
Hung heaviest within whose veins	Q
The oldest blood of freedom streamed	X
Still unredeemed	X
	-
O Mother Poet Queen in one	V
Pity and save he is thy son	V
For poet David's sake the king	B
Of all who sing	B
For thine own people's sake who share	Y
His law his truth his praise his prayer	Y
For his sake who was sacrificed	Z
His brother Christ	Z
