Idea And Deed |
| What’s the winter’s cold negative press |
| What’s the spring with its air of rebirth |
| To those felled under wildest duress |
| Trading freedom for a false sense of worth |
| Let the love of our own sacred rites |
| To the love of our people succeed |
| Let friendship and future unite |
| And flourish in idea and deed |
| Let the costume distinguish the strong |
| Place riches in lowest esteem |
| It’s for excess that people do wrong |
| And to liberty honesties lean |
| Letting one minute go on |
| Without seeing yourself with an eye |
| That is watchful and kindly and strong |
| Is as letting the soul drop and die |
