Two soldiers lay on tiie battlefield
At n ight when the sun went down.
One held a lock of th in gray hair.
And one held a lock of brown.
One th o u g h t of his sw eetheart hack a t home, j
Happy and young und guy,
Anti one of his m other left alone,
Feeble and old and gray.
Each in the th o u g h t th a t a woman cared
M urm ured a prayer to God,
L iftin g h it gaze to the blue above,
There on th e b a ttle tod.
Each in the joy of a wom an’s love
Sm iled th rough the pain of death,
M urm ured the sound of a w om an's name.
Though w ith Ida p a rtin g breath.
Pale grew th e d y ing lips of each.
Then, aa the sun w ent down.
One kiased a lock of th in gray hair,
And one kissed a lock of brown.
