Flags unfurled with honor
Windswept in the breeze
Colors born of nation
Of every life conceived

With honor and with glory
On every battlefield
We stood for truth and honor
Let no one be deceived

We are the land of freedom
Who love their fellowman
Fight no matter where we are
This tradition we began

Through every war our valor
Courageous hearts were worn
Heads held high with honor
No fear of death nor scorn

Today we must remember
Those who left this earth
Fighting for the freedom
Our patriot's great worth

On every stone is written
Names of brave and true
Their life for love of country
Heart's victory for you.
