"The New Colossus" by Emma Lazarus, New York City, 1883 Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame,
"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore,
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
Emma Lazarus wrote the sonnet â??The New Colossusâ?? as an auction donation to raise money for the Statue of Libertyâ??s pedestal in 1883. In 1903, a plague containing the text of the sonnet was mounted on the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty.
