By no means, today we trust
That present’s swept away the past,
The Great War battles do exist
In films,  just covered with a mist.
But still a thunderstorm in Mays
Reminds of those tragic days…
In silence by the soldiers’ graves
The generation of today
but once a life the minute stays.
The words to sound have the power
Upon the hearts of people young,
And bitter tears burn the cheeks
When songs of glory warmly sung…
Why do we so deeply feel
Misfortune, that was faced ago,
Why watching films we cry for them,
Forgotten heroes and unknown?
Through flames of war they seem appeal
To living us, whose future is reflecting past.
Eternal life , not death we spell
In our hearts they ever dwell.
Alive they failed to have a prize
The dust of death made fade sunrise.
Believe, they see the starlit roads
Of endless life with our eyes!
