This new Tomb of one’s Not familiar Soldier

A young son left his life one-day, To battle a war but really far away, Assaulting to let comfort be recognized, The guy thought eventually he’d get back.

He remaining his like, said having a smile, “I am future household, in the a short while.” The guy never ever realized their time try near, The guy leftover to battle, in place of a concern.

The scene are gray and you will bleak, A win, a loss, again, an autumn, The brand new assaulting proceeded, week after week It desired to avoid it all.

Once the battle was obtained, The fresh new bloodshed more, the fresh fights over, 100000, and you will 16 alot more, Canadians dry, which was this new score.

Brand new brave child you to kept his love, Was visited deal with the lord more than, His looks never located, With poppies blowing, around came an audio.

An assistance to remember them, Whom came ahead of, the fresh daring men, A canon booms, a great bugle audio, The new tomb of them whose lifetime they crowns.

I remember with good Tomb out-of Stone, For the soldiers still unfamiliar, These who fought and you can died ahead of, And those who’ll strive in future conflicts.
