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-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
The Statue of Liberty bears a number of plaques and tablets. The most famous is the bronze tablet with the poem 'The New Colossus' by Emma Lazarus presented in 1903, which has been housed in the Statue of Liberty Museum in the base, since the Statue's renovation in 1986.
The New Colossus

Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame

Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand

Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
The torch is a symbol of enlightenment
