Let no autocrat enthrall you! Fight for freedom now! Forward, Sammy, France is calling, Belgium 's homes and churches falling, 'Woman's honor. fate of childhood, Hear their sad appeal! Anxious hearts are beating, For the time of meeting, When freemenis guns Shall conquer Huns, For freedom, right and honor. Forward, then, your duty calls you, Let no Hunnish foe appall you! Let no autocrat enthrall you! Fight for freedom now! She smiles, O, how she smiles, and all The world is filled with lightg She laughs-'tis like a bird's sweet call, In meadows fair and bright. She weeps-the world is cold and gray, Rain clouds shut out the view: V She sings-I softly steal away And wait till she gets through.
