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