Over there a young boy falls And over here a woman weeps When bugle and clarion call Not mothers, but army keeps Children of the country then In unsullied discipline when Bugle and clarion cry for war So father, son and brother fall The awaiting woman's despair Smell death and cordite in air Fall flailing to the sister's woe Fall weak with strong sorrow To the old wife's fresh sadness Fight, hero and fall with madness
