Phoenix Rising
The Eagle soars in clear blue skies,
And rakes the desert with keen dark eyes;
It's eyrie safe, on wings it powers,
And scours the sands among
God's great towers.


And while aloft the eagle soars,
Across the desert stalks and roars;
The sleeping lion, called by pride,
To shakes its mane
For those that died.


No place will shelter nor can hide,
These legions born of suicide;
For from the ash does Phoenix rise,
In Liberty’s gaze,
Over New York skies.
