01:05 And we that are left to grow old with the years, remembering the heartache, the pain and the tears,

01:13 hoping and praying that never ever again one will see such sorrow and pain.

01:20 The price that was paid we always remember, every day, every month, not just November.

01:27 We shall remember them.

01:29 In Flanders Fields the poppies glowed between the crosses, row on row, the mark houseways.

01:41 And in the sky the larks still bravely singing fly, scarce heard amid the guns below.

01:50 Short days ago we lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, loved and were loved.

01:57 And now we lie in Flanders Fields.

02:00 Take up our quarrel with the foe.

02:03 To you from failing hands we throw the torch, be yours to hold it high.

02:08 If you break faith with us who die, we shall not sleep.

02:12 Though poppies grow in Flanders Fields.
