Can I forget that King who came
And stained with bloody sceptre – he Paternal fondness on his breath
Who talked of peace & scattered flame
Of mercy – & he dealt us death
a father he!! what he who built
His throne on blood – I saw him whit
The nagger which Hey's less spell
Can I forget – Can I forget

Can I forget him when he trod
Our rights into the dust – & laid
Like some usurping Demon God
All slavery's burthen on his our head
When freedom fled alarmed, – & woe
And shame within our unwillingness met –
Can time e're vane that memory? No! Can I forget – can I forget?

Can I forget those days days of blood
When on our unarmed citizens
Poured hired assassins like a flood
Intrusting from the royal dens
"The King – The King" those murderers cried
Then on our unarmed people set –
And loyally all their fury satisfied Their royalty is sanctified
Can I forget – can I forget?
