0 falrest land that greets the sea
With song of pine and river,
Ever with thee my heart shall be;
Dear Maine, love thee ever.
O surf-washed cliff where have heard
The music ending never,
Ever to thee shall fancy flee;
MY rest art thou, forever.
o tree and cliff and sounding sea,
Your power faileth never;
For each of you doth keep for mel
A secret sweet forever
0 dearest land that fronts the sea
With song Of pine and river,
Ever with thee my heart shall be;
Fair Maine, love thee ever.
