O had you died upon the field
That was so grim to plough,
The tears had blinded every eye
That sharpens on you now.
For death had been a glorious gift,
With all you had to give,
And kinder than we stay-at-homes;
But ah, you had to live!

O had you died upon the field
That was so grim to plough,
The tears had blinded every eye
That sharpens on you now.
For death had been a glorious gift,
With all you had to give,
And kinder than we stay-at-homes;
But ah, you had to live!
