James Russell Lowell - Stanzas on Freedom 汉译

Men! whose boast it is that ye

Come of father brave and free, 

If there breathe on earth a slave,
Are ye truly free and brave?
If you do not feel the chain,
When it works a brother's pain,
Are ye not base slaves indeed,
Slaves unworthy to be freed?

Women! who shall one day bear
Sons to breathe New England air,
If ye hear, without a blush,
Deeds to make the roused blood rush
Like red lava through your veins,
For your sisters now in chains,
Answer! Are ye fit to be
Mothers of brave and free?
