The Lady gleams at the Isle of Liberty.......
A true Monumental maternal shrine.
She stands quite majestically.
Like an imperial beacon she does shine....
She lies between twin cities in the Harbour
A beacon of hope for all those who by air or sea
Come by the thousands to clamour…..
A new life of justice and liberty.
A humble giant between twin cities lie
On a pedestal she stands erect
Shouting liberty to a purple-mountain sky,
The poor, the hurdled immigrants to protect
God bless this ancient monumental lady,
A colossal giant proclaiming liberty.
