								I Shall Stand Once More...My Brother
 |  |  |  
					| In remembrance of you, I shall stand the watch
 that gentles our dreams
 in the night
 of our violent history.
 
 I shall let
 the oldman tears
 flow freely upon my face.
 
 once more my friend...
 once more and perhaps
 never again!
 
 I salute you!
 ... salute the flag
 of a blessed nation.
 
 I grow old,
 and you
 will not.
 
 ... We were warriors
 that time
 forgot.
 
 Yet
 ... I
 did not.
