Hail Die Another Day

In the order of this world A day is born with sunrise and sunset Is there a world that has itself and not one to live in it? Is there a language that has all words Except life, care and concern? Oh! Come I shall show you my next bud Here is all life, all happiness, all wealth, and all weather All ‘allness’; except yourself and your life Tell mom that you have lived another day That a ray of hope still survives Show your sister this token of gift of Life I give you That I am to die and you are to live For one’s death is other’s life There isn’t anyone to aid us So let me die for our mean cause To live Oh! To survive in deed. Break forth into joy That you live another day And into tears; to die another day All Hail! All Praise! All glory! Die another Day!
