CONCORD HYMN by Ralph Waldo Emerson
|
||
|
|
||
|
Sung at the completion of the Battle Monument - July 4, 1837
|
||
|
|
||
|
By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
|
||
|
Their flag to April's breeze unfurled,
|
||
|
Here once the embattled farmers stood
|
||
|
And fired the shot heard round the world.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The foe long since in silence slept;
|
||
|
Alike the conqueror silent sleeps;
|
||
|
And Time the ruined bridge has swept
|
||
|
Down the dark stream which seaward creeps.
|
||
|
|
||
|
On this green bank, by this soft stream,
|
||
|
We set today a votive stone;
|
||
|
That memory may their deed redeem,
|
||
|
When, like our sires, our sons are gone.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Spirit, that made those heroes dare
|
||
|
To die, and leave their children free,
|
||
|
Bid Time and Nature gently spare
|
||
|
The shaft we raise to them and thee.
