Come back to us, My son so sweet A face too young to be taken away. My daughter, Drawn away to this careless world It does not deserve your grace. My loves, I am with you in every breath It will always be this way. Torn away by petty things and historical mistakes. I will never send you away, I wait with warm embrace Do not leave a folded flag in its place. Come back to us We wait, Every generation a dying race But a mother always waits.
