Rh Shall sing with the sons of morning

And daughters of even-song:

Black mother of the iron hills that ward the blazing sea,

Wild spirit of a storm-swept soul, a-struggling to be free,

Where 'neath the bloody finger-marks thy riven bosom quakes,

Thicken the thunders of God's Voice and lo! a world awakes!
