 In deeds of daring unforecast,

In deeds of valor unsurpassed,

In deeds that make thee known at last,

Mother-land!

Thy strength it was that made them strong;

Thy justice taught them hate of wrong;

They are of thee, to thee belong,

Mother-land.

Their lungs are filled with thy sweet breath;

Thy voice they hear, and what it saith;

They love thee, and they fear not death,

Mother-land!
