The Mother of All Nations
America is the mother of all nations,
she gathers her children under
one beautiful flag that forever
is a testimony of pride and greatness!
America welcomes everybody who struggles
and shelters them under her protective wings;
whoever held on a lovely dream, but it was
never realized: " Soon it will! " she promises.
America holds out her long arms of generosity,
to anyone seeking refuge from dire poverty
and tyranny to share the ideals of democracy:
to whoever is oppressed, she offers liberty!
America is the only safe shore for those
battered by high waves and wild winds;
come to her harbor away from the drifting waters:
she will hear the cry of freedom in every voice!
