AS a strong bird on pinions free	A
Joyous the amplest spaces heavenward cleaving	B
Such be the thought I'd think to day of thee America	B
Such be the recitative I'd bring to day for thee	A
	-
The conceits of the poets of other lands I bring thee not	C
Nor the compliments that have served their turn so long	B
Nor rhyme nor the classics nor perfume of foreign court or indoor	D
library	A
But an odor I'd bring to day as from forests of pine in the north in	E
Maine or breath of an Illinois prairie	A
With open airs of Virginia or Georgia or Tennessee or from Texas	F
uplands or Florida's glades	G
With presentment of Yellowstone's scenes or Yosemite	A
And murmuring under pervading all I'd bring the rustling sea sound	H
That endlessly sounds from the two great seas of the world	I
	-
And for thy subtler sense subtler refrains O Union	J
Preludes of intellect tallying these and thee mind formulas fitted	K
for thee real and sane and large as these and thee	A
Thou mounting higher diving deeper than we knew thou	L
transcendental Union	J
By thee Fact to be justified blended with Thought	M
Thought of Man justified blended with God	N
Through thy Idea lo the immortal Reality	A
Through thy Reality lo the immortal Idea	B
	-
	-
Brain of the New World what a task is thine	O
To formulate the Modern Out of the peerless grandeur of the	B
modern	P
Out of Thyself comprising Science to recast Poems Churches Art	Q
Recast may be discard them end them May be their work is done	J
who knows	R
By vision hand conception on the background of the mighty past	S
the dead	T
To limn with absolute faith the mighty living present	U
	-
And yet thou living present brain heir of the dead the Old World	I
brain	V
Thou that lay folded like an unborn babe within its folds so long	B
Thou carefully prepared by it so long haply thou but unfoldest it	W
only maturest it	W
It to eventuate in thee the essence of the by gone time contain'd in	E
thee	A
Its poems churches arts unwitting to themselves destined with	X
reference to thee	A
The fruit of all the Old ripening to day in thee	A
	-
	-
Sail sail thy best ship of Democracy	A
Of value is thy freight 'tis not the Present only	A
The Past is also stored in thee	A
Thou holdest not the venture of thyself alone not of thy western	P
continent alone	Y
Earth's r sum entire floats on thy keel O ship is steadied by thy	Z
spars	A
With thee Time voyages in trust the antecedent nations sink or swim	A2
with thee	A
With all their ancient struggles martyrs heroes epics wars thou	L
bear'st the other continents	A
Theirs theirs as much as thine the destination port triumphant	U
Steer steer with good strong hand and wary eye O helmsman thou	L
carryest great companions	A
Venerable priestly Asia sails this day with thee	A
And royal feudal Europe sails with thee	A
	-
	-
Beautiful World of new superber Birth that rises to my eyes	A
Like a limitless golden cloud filling the western sky	Z
Emblem of general Maternity lifted above all	B2
Sacred shape of the bearer of daughters and sons	A
Out of thy teeming womb thy giant babes in ceaseless procession	J
issuing	B
Acceding from such gestation taking and giving continual strength	C2
and life	D2
World of the Real world of the twain in one	J
World of the Soul born by the world of the real alone led to	E2
identity body by it alone	Y
Yet in beginning only incalculable masses of composite precious	A
materials	A
By history's cycles forwarded by every nation language hither	F2
sent	G2
Ready collected here a freer vast electric World to be	A
constructed here	H2
The true New World the world of orbic Science Morals Literatures	A
to come	I2
Thou Wonder World yet undefined unform'd neither do I define thee	A
How can I pierce the impenetrable blank of the future	F2
I feel thy ominous greatness evil as well as good	J2
I watch thee advancing absorbing the present transcending the	B
past	S
I see thy light lighting and thy shadow shadowing as if the entire	F2
globe	K2
But I do not undertake to define thee hardly to comprehend thee	A
I but thee name thee prophecy as now	L
I merely thee ejaculate	L2
	-
Thee in thy future	F2
Thee in thy only permanent life career thy own unloosen'd mind thy	Z
soaring spirit	M2
Thee as another equally needed sun America radiant ablaze swift	N2
moving fructifying all	B2
Thee risen in thy potent cheerfulness and joy thy endless great	L2
hilarity	A
Scattering for good the cloud that hung so long that weigh'd so	A
long upon the mind of man	O2
The doubt suspicion dread of gradual certain decadence of man	O2
Thee in thy larger saner breeds of Female Male thee in thy	Z
athletes moral spiritual South North West East	P2
To thy immortal breasts Mother of All thy every daughter son	J
endear'd alike forever equal	Q2
Thee in thy own musicians singers artists unborn yet but certain	J
Thee in thy moral wealth and civilization until which thy proudest	R2
material wealth and civilization must remain in vain	V
Thee in thy all supplying all enclosing Worship thee in no single	Q2
bible saviour merely	A
Thy saviours countless latent within thyself thy bibles incessant	U
within thyself equal to any divine as any	A
Thee in an education grown of thee in teachers studies students	A
born of thee	A
Thee in thy democratic fetes en masse thy high original festivals	A
operas lecturers preachers	A
Thee in thy ultimata the preparations only now completed the	B
edifice on sure foundations tied	S2
Thee in thy pinnacles intellect thought thy topmost rational	Q2
joys thy love and godlike aspiration	J
In thy resplendent coming literati thy full lung'd orators thy	Z
sacerdotal bards kosmic savans	A
These these in thee certain to come to day I prophecy	A
	-
	-
Land tolerating all accepting all not for the good alone all good	J2
for thee	A
Land in the realms of God to be a realm unto thyself	D2
Under the rule of God to be a rule unto thyself	D2
	-
Lo where arise three peerless stars	A
To be thy natal stars my country Ensemble Evolution Freedom	I2
Set in the sky of Law	T2
	-
Land of unprecedented faith God's faith	U2
Thy soil thy very subsoil all upheav'd	J2
The general inner earth so long so sedulously draped over now and	J2
hence for what it is boldly laid bare	V2
Open'd by thee to heaven's light for benefit or bale	W2
	-
Not for success alone	Y
Not to fair sail unintermitted always	A
The storm shall dash thy face the murk of war and worse than war	D
shall cover thee all over	F2
Wert capable of war its tug and trials Be capable of peace its	A
trials	A
For the tug and mortal strain of nations come at last in peace not	J2
war	D
In many a smiling mask death shall approach beguiling thee thou in	E
disease shalt swelter	F2
The livid cancer spread its hideous claws clinging upon thy breasts	A
seeking to strike thee deep within	E
Consumption of the worst moral consumption shall rouge thy face	A
with hectic	B
But thou shalt face thy fortunes thy diseases and surmount them	X2
all	B2
Whatever they are to day and whatever through time they may be	A
They each and all shall lift and pass away and cease from thee	A
While thou Time's spirals rounding ou	E2
