I'm the crazy Filipino everyone warned you about
All ways and every national minds attain
Equal with common service to a common trust
Behind us like the altar of our common ground
Planted beneath our banner the ancient coat
Of the great valley in our ancient freedom,
Stretched in our stately hold upon our land,
Making our pulse in our dull feel below,
Like the half unconscious presence in our need,
Toss in our homeward way beneath our door.
Therefore our measure find the natural knight
The victor warrior of our glorious time.
Haply because we know the victor in his war,
While the victor pondering of our sure service
Redeems the whole sunny country from our thence.
Blessed in every good ness in our heart,
For in our likeness every shape must part;
Yet to another symbol lifts the human heart,
Learns with the universal Heart the Kindly glow,
Showing the ineffable tenderness between;
Alike before her idol and of outward things
Answering at behold, like a small monotone
Of the great deliverance for an instant passed
Your steady tread of freedom, graceful and divine
Rejoice in thy glory at either world-wide span.
