"Here I lie,
Is it my time to die,

For how beautiful those stars shine so bright
As I look up into the sky on this cold dark night.

"I see a flash
From my past
I ask my self will it be my last,

"I lie here on the grass
Only to see my enemy pass,

"I shout help me please
Only for them to put me at ease,

"My life has been short that I know
For Queen and country it goes to show,

"Its nearly time for me to go
Remember me please and let them poppies grow
