To tint your stripes a deeper red,
And some bring gifts of courage rare
To keep you fine and splendid there.

At YOU shall strike a deadly blow!
May children's laughter and their song
OF gladness, as YOU pass along.

Rejoice to see you dancing there;
May all men, under God S great sky,

And when these days of care are DER,
May every Joy be yours once more.
