| Till not one hateful link remains | B |
| Of slavery's lingering chains | B |
| Till not one tyrant tread our plains | B |
| Nor traitor lip pollute our fountains | A |
| No never till that glorious day | C |
| Shall Lusitania's sons be gay | C |
| Or hear oh Peace thy welcome lay | C |
| Resounding thro' her sunny mountains | A |

| The song of war shall echo thro' our mountains | A |
| Till Victory's self shall smiling say | C |
| Your cloud of foes hath past away | C |
| And Freedom comes with new born ray | C |
| To gild your vines and light your fountains | A |
| Oh never till that glorious day | C |
| Shall Lusitania's sons be gay | C |
| Or hear sweet Peace thy welcome lay | C |
| Resounding thro' her sunny mountains | A |
