They went alongside songs to the battle, they were young,  
Straight of limb, truthful of eye, steady as well as aglow.  
They were staunch to the destination against odds uncounted;  
They roughshod alongside their faces to the foe. 
 
They shall grow non old, equally nosotros that are left grow old:  
Age shall non weary them, nor the years contemn.  
At the going downward of the Sun as well as inward the morn  
We volition call upward them.  

They mingle non alongside their laughing comrades again;  
They sit down no to a greater extent than at familiar tables of home;  
They select no lot inward our labour of the day-time;  
They slumber beyond England's foam. 
 
As the stars that shall hold out brilliant when nosotros are dust,  
Moving inward marches upon the heavenly plain;  
As the stars that are starry inward the fourth dimension of our darkness,  
To the end, to the end, they remain.
