Луиза Сара Бевингтон (Louisa Sarah Bevington) Текст оригинала на английском языке 'Tis Daring Wins the Day Are you cold, or are you lukewarm You may freely have your say; When we've time we'll read your musings, But 'tis daring wins the day. Ah, the Commune's own are fiery, While the business heads are cool, And Dame Nature hands her lightening To the best child in her school To the grown child full of mercies That not yet have had their fling; To the man that loves his fellows, And will brook no bullying. Sisters! brothers! wake from slumber, Speed the great Cause on its way; Give your lives and dare your utmost, For 'tis daring wins the day. Not in petty hate and envy, Nor revenge grown mean and sour: Let the world see noble justice Arming all your strokes of power. All the world is thrall to falsehood That we rise to sweep away, Holding high Truth's own brave banner, For 'tis daring wins the day. |
