Here we sleep in death unbetrayed but honored in name
so for you of little faith and governing powers can keep that peace
for which we few paid the ultimate price only a soldier can give
In time our children shall come to understand when and how our fate
was changed by the hand of mankind
only then can you measure our worth and resolve against the actions
we did indeed undertake for the name of liberty,
Dare we call from beneath this cross of stone,
always reminding you of the confusion from history
what lessons have you learned,,,,,,,,
will you repeat the past mistakes of your ancestors
who walked on this world before,
Can we rest from the toils of battle at peace,with the understanding
that history will show the distinguished who have fallen
will live on in the hearts and actions of men who remember the injustice from their past
Or will you fall victim to events we ignored,,,,,,,,
GW
