Gray Chodoro heard the tramp
OF the feet that marched 20 battle,
Heard the horses neigh and stamp,
Creak of belt and side arms rattle.
Heard the army's thrilling cry:
''Dai'e Nippon! Banzai! Ban-af!"
Near her pillow stayed her son,
And she pressed his shoulder, barking,
When gun told TO gun
That the soldiers were embarking;
And she heard his heart beat fast
While the countless columns passed.
Proudly looked she in his face
None who marched without had bolder
And she drew aside apace.
Leaned more lightly on his shoulder.
