In Flanders fields the poppies blow | |
Between the crosses, row on row, | |
That mark our place; and in the sky | |
The larks, still bravely singing, fly | |
Scarce heard amid the guns below. | 5 |
| |
We are the Dead. Short days ago | |
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, | |
Loved and were loved, and now we lie | |
In Flanders fields. | |
| |
Take up our quarrel with the foe: | 10 |
To you from failing hands we throw | |
The torch; be yours to hold it high. | |
If ye break faith with us who die | |
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow | |
In Flanders fields. | 15 |
