VALE OF PLENTY

A HUNDRED TIMES WE'VE LEFT THIS PLACE
AND MARCHED AWAY TO DISTANT KINGDOMS

WHERE TO WALK FULL IN HARMS WAY
AND STRUGGLE HARD FOR PEACE AND FREEDOM,

THE WORLD AROUND WE'VE ROVED AND RANGED
TO PAY IN BLOOD ON CAIN'S DARK DEBT.
WE'VE DONE BOLD THINGS YOU CAN'T IMAGINE, AND DESPARATE THINGS WE CAN'T FORGET,

ON NIGHTS WE SLEPT WE DREAMED SWEET DREAMS,
IN SLUMBER'S SHORT LIVED COMFORT LENT
WE
HOMESICK FLEW BACK IN AN INSTANT
TO THIS PEACEFUL VALE OF PLENTY,

FOR HERE IS WHERE WE'VE WOO'D AND WED
AND TUCKED OUR CHILDREN SAFE IN BED,
AND HERE IS WHERE OUR LOVED ONES STAY
AND WORRY WHEN WE'RE FAR AWAY,
AND HERE IS WHERE WE'VE MOURNED AND SAID
OUR SAD FAREWELL'S TO COMRADES DEAD,
TO HERE IS WHERE WE HOPE AND PRAY
WE SAFELY MAKE IT BACK ONE DAY.

GIRT BY ALPINE PALISADE

SAFE FROM EVERY ADVERSARY

MILD, PASTORAL, LUSH AND FERTILE

THIS OUR VERDANT SANCTUARY.

NOW ORDERS COME TO STRIKE THE CAMP,
NOW SAD BEFORE US LIES OUR DUTY
TO SOUND "LAST POST" AND LOW'R THE FLAG
AND LEAVE THIS PLACE OF MATCHLESS BEAUTY.

AS SOLDIERS DO WE'LL HEFT OUR PACKS,
AND STEADFAST MARCH FOR WHERE WE'RE BOUND.
BUT EVER IN OUR HEARTS WILL REST
THIS PEACEFUL VALE AS SACRED GROUND.
