joining the colours by katharine tynan - the war poetry society lyrics

Loading...

there they go marching all in step so gay!
smooth*cheeked and golden, food for sh*lls and guns
blithely they go as to a wedding day
the mothers’ sons

the drab street stares to see them row on row
on the high tram*tops, singing like the lark
too careless*gay for courage, singing they go
into the dark

with tin whistles, mouth*organs, any noise
they pipe the way to glory and the grave;
foolish and young, the gay and golden boys
love cannot save

high heart! high courage! the poor girls they kissed
run with them: they shall kiss no more, alas!
out of thе mist they stepped*into thе mist
singing they pass
