Hussa for Liberty
(George K. Jackson)

Come lads, your glasses fill with glee
And drink a health to liberty
     Huzza! Huzza! Huzza!
     Huzza! Huzza! Huzza!

Hail ye heroes, wise and bold
To future times your names be told.

Youth descended from such sires
Feed, feed, feed the sacred fires.

The fires which warm Columbia's race
And shine with luster in each face.

Free-born sons no chains will bear
But those of love we'll gladly wear.
