    (continued from previous page)
    But freedom is ever sighing for the heroes who died unknown
    Dear City I dearly loved thee because of thy Patriot Band
    Because of the spirit which moved thee to strke for our suffering land
    Live on then in all Thy glory
    Queen of despondent years
    But forget not the tragic story
    which is linked with thy smiles and tears.
