What countless millions, struggling to be free, Demand in vain the boon of liberty!
Such, hapless Naples ! such, inglorious Spain, Thy fate ! still doom'd to wear th' oppressor's chain, Which hearts ignoble tamely sought to burst.
By cowardice and treachery doubly curst !
E'en while I sing, war's hurtling tempest raves.
On Grecian plains, and o'er Egean waves ; The flag of freedom from Olympus streams.
Through Tempe's vale the bristling armour gleams j 25 Around Parnassus' brow the battle rings
..., And purple currents die Castalian springs ; To new Plateas modern heroes rush, And new Thermopylae with carnage gush.
Oh ! be the conflict worthy of the sires, Whose altars blaz'd with freedom's holy fires ; Who, spurning luxury's seductive charms, Flew to the field, and died in glory's arms.
Still may their spirits urge the phalanx on.
Till every plain becomes a Marathon ; Till sinks the crescent, and the cross shall wave Triumphant o'er the humbled Moslem's grave.
And freedom, peace, and independence, smile On every hill, through every sea-born isle.
