I will fight for my country land, Though with sorrow I leave my loved ones at home. I will march for the wonderful band, If it leads me to my dome. I will be noble in my deeds, While to the front I am bound to stand, And witness the scene of many needs. I will fight for my country land. To and fro we march and drill daily, The duties of it all I can withstand, Some are sad, while others sing gaily, We are fighting for our country land. Friends and loved ones that I used to cherish, Are left behind to come at a demand. Still we who are fighting seem about to perish, Though I will fight for my country land. I will fight for my country land. My innocent blood will I shed. It costs much to cross the strand, And leave a noble name when dead. |
