A
Breathes there the man, with soul so dead,
A
Who never to himself hath said,
B
This is my own, my native land!
C
Whose heart hath ne’er within him burn’d,
C
As home his footsteps he hath turn’d,
B
From wandering on a foreign strand!
D
If such there breathe, go, mark him well;
D
For him no Minstrel raptures swell;
E
High though his titles, proud his name,
E
Boundless his wealth as wish can claim;
F
Despite those titles, power, and pelf,
F
The wretch, concentred all in self,
G
Living, shall forfeit fair renown,
G
And, doubly dying, shall go down
H
To the vile dust, from whence he sprung,
H
Unwept, unhonor'd, and unsung.
