Here I say farewell my dear friend For its off for me to walk and go once again The call of death that whistle the end Above the field where no man has conquered but only lay the dead Fear not my friend nor shed a tear in my dread Yesteryear's youth that blossom the seasons golden past Keep within me those gay memories of spring For the dark storms and fierce fire shall consume me and my comrades Light a candle in my door step will please So if I may fall in this foreign field and my body swallowed by the soil My soul may find its way back to the motherlands shore.
