Come onward, comu 1. Ye sons of Chin : The untherland your aid impiores. With dauntless hearts and ardent zeal, Enlist ye in your country's cause.
Let one resolve your actions guide,
One spirit move your heart and scal: Your fealings, efforts, hopes and aime, Let all tend to the self-same goal. So, roam abroad in dišiagt lande, - And ever brighter wisdom gasi; Awake, arise with sedar fresh?
Aud chant a nobler, manlier strain. Let not applauso be your solo aïti,
Nor let aluss your soul subdue. Devote your life to what is good,
And what is great, and what is true. -

Your freedom, fortude, home sublime.
