Oh great warrior so tried and so true May your chosen God watch over you Sleeping beneath the wood of a far and distant land Your grave unmarked by your slayer's hand. You answered your country's call to arm and Fought to keep strangers from harm. Thought you knew neither friend nor foe, The warrior's path you had to go 'Til you lay on the wooded floor To answer the battle call never more. Yes! In this strange forest so far so far away You fulfilled the warrior's oath that day. The greatest gift that any can give You died so that strangers might freely live. Mighty Warrior so tested and bold The story of your fate goes untold. While in a land many miles and many years away Loved ones seek for you each day. Mighty champion, proud and true Each and every day their love walks with you. The lovely maiden you so proudly claimed Walks a warrior's path that bestows honor upon your name. Your son raised strong and true by mother's hand Enriches your legend throughout your native land. Humble warrior, be at ease in your eternal rest Mighty heroes continue your earthly quest.
