[naturalman1975]

In Flanders Fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields

Take up our quarrel with the foe
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields

THE ANSWER

Fear not that you have died for naught
The torch you threw to us, we caught
and now our hands will hold it high
It's glorious light shall never die
We'll not break faith with ye who lie
On many a field

On battlefields the cannons boom
And fitful flashes light the gloom
While up above, like eagles, fly
The fierce destroyers of the sky
With stains the earth wherein you lie
Is redder than the poppy bloom
On many a field

Sleep on, ye brave! The shrieking shell
The quaking trench, the startling yell
The fury of the battle hell
Shall wake you not, for all is well
Sleep peacefully, for all is well

Your flaming torch aloft we bear
With burning heart and oath we swear
To keep the faith, to fight it through
To crush the foe, or sleep with you
On many a field.

They shall grow not old
As we that are left grow old
Age shall not weary them
nor the years condemn

At the going down of the sun
And in the morning
We will remember them

LEST WE FORGET

Eternal gratitude to our wonderful friends, the Australians.
