IF men WERE WISE
BY CHARLES MACKAY

What might be done if men were wise,
What glorious deeds, my suffering
brother,
Would they unite
In love and right,
And cease their scorn of one another?
Oppression's heart might be imbued
With kindling drops of loving kind
ness,
And knowledge pour
From shore to shore
Light on the eyes of mental blindness.
All slavery, warfare, lies, and wrongs,
All vice and crime might die together;
And meat and corn,
To each man born,
Be free as warmth in summer weather.
The meanest wretch that ever trod,
The deepest sunk in guilt and sorrow,
Might stand erect
In self-respect,
And share the teeming world tomor-
row.
What might be done? This might be
done
And more than this, my suffering
brother;
More than the tongue
Ere said or sung,
If men were wise and loved each other.
