Answer
Well
how
do
you
do,
young
Willie
McBride?
Do
you
mind
if
I
sit
here
down
by
your
graveside?
And
rest
for
a
while
'neath
the
warm
summer
sun.
I've
been
walking
all
day
and
I'm
nearly
done.
I
see
by
your
gravestone
you
were
only
nineteen
when
you
joined
the
Great
Fallen
in
1916.
I
hope
you
died
well
and
I
hope
you
died
clean.
Or
young
Willie
McBride,
was
it
slow
and
obscene?
Did
Answer
they
beat
the
drum
slowly?
Did
they
play
the
fife
lowly?
Did
they
sound
the
Dead
March
as
they
lowered
you
down?
Did
the
band
play
The
Last
Post
and
Chorus?
Did
the
pipes
play
the
Flowers
of
the
Forest?
Did
you
leave
a
wife
or
a
sweetheart
behind?
In
some
faithful
heart
is
your
memory
enshrined?
Although
you
died
back
in
1916,
in
that
faithful
heart,
are
you
forever
nineteen?
Or
are
you
a
Answer
stranger
without
even
a
name?
Enclosed
down
forever
behind
the
glass
frame.
In
an
old
photograph:
torn,
battered,
and
stained,
and
faded
to
yellow
in
a
brown
leather
frame.
Did
they
beat
the
drum
slowly?
Did
they
play
the
fife
lowly?
Did
they
sound
the
Dead
March
as
they
lowered
you
down?
Did
the
band
play
The
Last
Post
and
Chorus?
Did
the
pipes
play
the
Flowers
of
the
Forest?
The
sun,
now
it
shines
Answer
on
the
green
fields
of
France.
There's
a
warm
summer
breeze,
it
makes
the
red
poppies
dance.
And
look
how
the
sun
shines
from
under
the
clouds!
There's
no
gas.
No
barbed
wire.
There's
no
gun-firing
now.
But
here
in
this
graveyard,
it's
still
No
Man's
Land.
The
countless
white
crosses
stand
mute
in
the
sand.
To
man's
blind
indifference
to
his
fellow
man.
To
a
whole
generation
that
were
butchered
and
damned.

Young
Willie
McBride,
I
can't
help
wonder
why.
Do
those
that
lie
here
know
why
did
they
die?
And
did
they
believe
when
they
answered
the
call,
did
they
really
believe
that
this
war
would
end
Answer
wars?
Well
the
sorrow,
the
suffering,
the
glory,
the
pain,
the
killing,
and
dying
were
all
done
in
vain.
For,
Willie
McBride,
it
all
happened
again.
And
again,
and
again,
and
again,
and
again.
Did
they
