TVA OFVERSATTNINGAR.
I. WASHINGTON.
J. O. WALLIN.
. Translated from the Swedish by Ernst W. Olson.
^ake, countryman, thy glass in hand,
^ And drink with the American
Unto the Father of his Land,
Creator of his country’s plan.
Where, in the nations’ Pantheon,
Thy honored Vasa proudly towers
He rears to his great Washington
A monument, the peer of ours.
O Freedom, child of heavenly birth,
Sent to release a shackled race,
Erase the boundaries of earth,
And bring the nations face to face;
Where’er thy spirit men inspired
To battle ’gainst a tyrant’s might,
The pulses leap, the souls arc fired
With shouts for Victory and Right!
