Whitman's choice to describe people singing rather than working symbolizes joy, harmony, and unity in American society. By portraying labor as a form of song, Whitman celebrates the diversity of individuals and their unique contributions to the collective American experience. Singing represents a shared expression of creativity and fulfillment that extends beyond mere physical work.
