In Flanders Fields the poppies grow
In Flanders Fields the poppies grow<br>
Between the crosses, row on row
Between the crosses, row on row<br>
That mark our place; and in the sky
That mark our place; and in the sky<br>
The larks, still bravely singing fly
The larks, still bravely singing fly<br>
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
Scarce heard amid the guns below.<br>
 
We are the dead, Short days ago<br>
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow<br>
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie in Flanders Fields.<br>


Take up our quarrel with the foe:<br>
We are the dead, Short days ago
To you from failing hands we throw<br>
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow
The torch; be yours to hold it high.<br>
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie in Flanders Fields.


If ye break faith with us who die,<br>
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
We shall not sleep though poppies grow<br>
To you from failing hands we throw
We shall not sleep in Flanders Fields.<br>
The torch; be yours to hold it high.


John McCrae (1872-1918)
If ye break faith with us who die,
We shall not sleep though poppies grow
We shall not sleep in Flanders Fields.}}

In Flanders Fields the poppies grow
Between the crosses, row on row
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead, Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie in Flanders Fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.

If ye break faith with us who die,
We shall not sleep though poppies grow
We shall not sleep in Flanders Fields.
