Izzy was the Queen of Court in fourteen ninety-two
One fateful day she wondered, was this Old World old or new?
Columbus said he'd find a way to riches, spice, 'n fame
If Iz'd give him three good ships 'n men to sail from Spain

And if they had not wondered, was their Old World old or new?
Columbus just might not have sailed into a New World view
The freedoms in our bles-sed land may never have been planned
We'd lose our days in selfish craze; we need each other's hand!

Chris, he fin'ly got the nod and went where he was sent
He sailed his crews through oceans deep while hearts were discontent
And then a cry of""Land ahoy!"" came from the deck one night
A tiny light cut down their fright, a coastline there in sight!

And if they had not wondered, was their Old World old or new?
Columbus just might not have sailed into a New World view
The freedoms in our bles-sed land may never have been planned
We'd lose our days in selfish craze; we need each other's hand!

No, their motives weren't all pure; here we voice dissent
Too many lives were torn apart, a living hell event
For all the lies and sullied deeds, we cry""Forgive us, please!""
Let's honor ev'ry skin and tongue! Damned be our hate disease!

And if they had not wondered, was their Old World old or new?
Columbus just might not have sailed into a New World view
The freedoms in our bles-sed land may never have been planned
We'd lose our days in selfish craze; we need each other's hand!

All here today and free to pray
For all the world to know the way
To live at peace
So strife may cease!
God bless the U.S.A
On this Columbus Day!

Hoy todos juntos y libres para orar
Ya que el camino queremos encontrar
¡para vivir en paz y sin pelear!
God bless the U.S.A
On this Columbus Day!
