Across the scented fields of May.
see him going on his way
Silent and unafraid and strong,
Walking the long
Mile upon mile against the sun
Today my lover takes his gun.
Today my lover takes his gun.
(Ah, well, loves golden dream is

For he is marching day by day
Along the scented lanes of May,
His bayonet pointed to the sky,
And grave his fearless eye
Undaunted by the searching SUN
Today my lover takes his gun.
