Poema "Bread and Roses"

James Oppenheim 1882-1932

As we come marching, marching, in the beauty of the day, 
A million darkened kitchens, a thousand mill-lofts gray 
Are touched with all the radiance that a sudden sun discloses, 
For the people hear us singing, "Bread and Roses, Bread and Roses." 

As we come marching, marching, we battle, too, for men -- 
For they are women's children, and we mother them again. 
Our lives shall not be sweated from birth until life closes -- 
Hearts starve as well as bodies: Give us Bread, but give us Roses. 

As we come marching, marching, unnumbered women dead 
Go crying through our singing their ancient song of Bread; 
Small art and love and beauty their drudging spirits knew -- 
Yes, it is bread we fight for -- but we fight for Roses, too. 

As we come marching, marching, we bring the Greater Days -- 
The rising of the women means the rising of the race -- 
No more the drudge and idler -- ten that toil where one reposes -- 
But a sharing of life's glories: Bread and Roses, Bread and Roses.
