The Wind From Maine
A wind that's from the rocks and sea 1
und scented by the pine
Sweeps through the sycamores today
and where sequoias line
The ranks of giant sentinels that guard
the 'western slopes
The balsam of tlds briny breeze brings
heavy hearts new hope
q1(? nountans ani the rivers cry the
Ilussage that is Maine’s
p0 wise iride was shattered
and their desperation wanes
Again their hearts are raised to look
the future in the face
Tor Maine has been the clarion that’s
heartening a race
I
£Twas shame that sunk the souls of us
to depths we never knew
In days our flag was honored In the
harbors where it flew
When nations paid us homage for
they knew our hands were white i
Ere blood of our own countrymen had
stained them like a blight
And now again our songs we sing of
deeds that we must do
To make the dream that passed away
come marvelously true
For tlie sturdy souls that breathe the
pine have brought to life again-
The faith that tills a nation’s heart
that feels the wind from Maine
