O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,<\/div>\n
The ship has weather\u2019d every rack, the prize we sought is won,<\/div>\n
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,<\/div>\n
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;<\/div>\n

O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;<\/div>\n
Rise up\u2014for you the flag is flung\u2014for you the bugle trills,<\/div>\n
For you bouquets and ribbon\u2019d wreaths\u2014for you the shores a-crowding,<\/div>\n
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;<\/div>\n
