owen seaman – pro patria كلمات اغاني

england, in this great fight to which you go
because, where honour calls you, go you must
be glad, whatever comes, at least to know
you have your quarrel just

peace was your care: before the nations’ bar
her cause you pleaded and her ends you sought;
but not for her sake, being what you are
could you be bribed and bought

others may spurn the pledge of land to land
may with the brute sword stain a gallant past;
but by the seal to which you set your hand
thank god, you still stand fast!

forth, then, to front that peril of the deep
with smiling lips and in your eyes the light
steadfast and confident, of those who keep
their storied scutcheon bright

and we, whose burden is to watch and wait–
high-hearted ever, strong in faith and prayer
we ask what offering we may consecrate
what humble service share

to steel our souls against the l-st of ease;
to find our welfare in the common good;
to hold together, merging all degrees
in one wide brotherhood;–

to teach that he who saves himself is lost;
to bear in silence though our hearts may bleed;
to spend ourselves, and never count the cost
for others’ greater need;–

to go our quiet ways, subdued and sane;
to hush all vulgar clamour of the street;
with level calm to face alike the strain
of triumph or defeat;–

this be our part, for so we serve you best
so best confirm their prowess and their pride
your warrior sons, to whom in this high test
our fortunes we confide
