OBAMA

SAIL THE GREAT SHIP OF FREEDOM, OF AMERICA, THE UNITED STATES;

HAIL TO THE CAPTAIN OF THE SHIP, THE NEW ‘KING’, PRESIDENT OBAMA!

                                                             *

 Your sanguine rise is absolutely no surprise to those --

            Who believe that the Winter must give way to the Spring;

            Who believe that in a bush of thorns blooms the Rose;

            Who believe that a crown of thorns wears the Sovereign King ;

WHO BELIEVE IN THE CHANGE THAT HISTORY SOLEMNLY AWAITS!

NOW PEOPLE ALL OVER AWAIT THE SWEET CHANGE OF THE PANORAMA!

SAIL THE GREAT SHIP OF FREEDOM, OF AMERICA, THE UNITED STATES;

HAIL TO THE CAPTAIN OF THE SHIP, THE NEW ‘KING’, PRESIDENT OBAMA!

**


"LET FREEDOM RING,” beckoned KING from the MOUNTAIN TOP;

And FREEDOM rings today from the WHITE HOUSE, to the world!

The meek, and the sick, and the impoverished, and the corrupted crop

Of the MAIN STREET to the WALL STREET is turning emerald!

THE BELLS OF FREEDOM, PEACE, PROSPERITY TOLL FROM TALL GATES!

DESPAIR! DISAPPEAR, DEPART; NOW ENTER HOPE IN THE NOVEL DRAMA!

SAIL THE GREAT SHIP OF FREEDOM, OF AMERICA, THE UNITED STATES;

HAIL TO THE CAPTAIN OF THE SHIP, THE NEW ‘KING’, PRESIDENT OBAMA!
