Never will age claim their strength and vitality
Nor shall Time maim them with disease and lameness ever:
The Seasons shall never erase their memory under the skies
Nor Weakness rob them of the brightness of their eyes:

No number of years can stoop their figures
Nor shall they know silent suffering’s rigors .
We will remember them:
As long as Sun rides ‘cross the horizon,
While the Moon sails ‘cross Heaven;
We will remember them.

They shall never grow old as we who are left
Never will age claim their strength and vitality
Nor shall Time maim them with disease and lameness ever:
The Seasons shall never erase their memory under the skies
Nor Weakness rob them of the brightness of their eyes:

No number of years can stoop their figures
Nor shall they know silent suffering’s rigors .
We will remember them:
As long as Sun rides ‘cross the horizon,
While the Moon sails ‘cross Heaven;
We will remember them.
