So Long Brother.
Six years ago dear brother, j
We said our last farewell.
For your country called, and
you obeyed.
For freedom you gladly gave.
Now you sleep in an unmarked
grave
You are now at rest.
Sleep on dear brother, and in |
peace.
We know you did your best.
For you threw the torch from
failing hands
To those who do their best
They know you sleep in an un
marked grave.
And that you are at rest.
Sleep dear brother, it Is not in
vain
For the bearers of the torch
Are on their feet again.
