She bears no crown upon her brow;
She boasts no lineage royal;
Her dower is to humanity
A heart that's warm and loyal.
The proud Republic's child is she,
The sovereign People's daughter;
Her winsomeness, her womanhood,
Nature and Freedom taught her.
No herald cries before her path;
No frowning guards attend her;
Her gracious ways proclaim her best,
Her smile is her defender.
Let Kingdoms pledge their regal dames—
God bless the People's daughter!
Her winsomeness, her womanhood,
Nature and Freedom taught her.
