ten strings and a goat skin - the uniform كلمات الأغنية

{1:06}
dear brother, oh dear brother, i hope you’re feeling fine
and i pray this letter finds you, for my family’s sake and mine
dear brother, oh dear brother, feel the darkness closing fast
i must recount to you my story while my dwindling life does last

{1:39}
well, i’m certain you remember, at the beginning of last spring
i was poor, alone, and broken, but the army took me in
yeah they promised me good fortune, and a new life i would find
so they shipped me off to war, leaving my homeland far behind

{2:00} [chorus]
this uniform grows heavy on my body, heart, and soul
and i long to see my family but this war’s taking its toll
every day i grow more tired: my knees buckle, my hands shake
just take care of my loved ones when i’m gone for heaven’s sake

{2:32}
we marched for many months, into cold and foreign lands
it was on those icy river banks the foe had make their stand
and i could feel their burning hatred, as we marched down to the shore
and i closed my eyes in turn, as i heard those cannons roar

{2:54} [chorus]
this uniform grows heavy on my body, heart, and soul
and i long to see my family but this war’s taking its toll
every day i grow more tired: my knees buckle, my hands shake
just take care of my loved ones when i’m gone for heaven’s sake
{3:16}
ahhhhh, haaa, huuuuuo
ahhhhh, haaa, huuuuuo
ahhhhh, haaa, huuuuuo

{3:39}
they fired their guns and hit about forty men or so
those poor souls they fell down bleeding, staining the white snow
and soon they fired their second volley, and a lead ball pierced by breast
i fell down upon my knees, i could barely grasp for breath

{4:01}
soon i had a wound, found myself laying on my back
far behind the firing line on a bl__dy surgeon’s mat
and i write to you this letter, ring of battle in my ears
just a poor and lonely soldier boy alone with all his fears

{4:22}
i will have no hero’s death, to me that much is clear

{4:28} [chorus]
this uniform grows heavy on my body, heart, and soul
and i long to see my family but this war’s taking its toll
every day i grow more tired: my knees buckle, my hands shake
just take care of my loved ones when i’m gone for heaven’s sake
{4:48}
every day i grow more tired: my knees buckle, my hands shake
just take care of my loved ones when i’m gone
