And the countries called,
Seductive heroism,
And the young men came.
And their mothers sang
Songs of woe, Lieder von Leid.
And the young men served.
And the people wept,
Tears a universal tongue,
As the young men died.
Seductive heroism,
And the young men came.
And their mothers sang
Songs of woe, Lieder von Leid.
And the young men served.
And the people wept,
Tears a universal tongue,
As the young men died.
This poem was first used a few years ago at a Remembrance Sunday Service.
