Soldiers

SOLDIERS

Crossing the world; ground, sea and air
Giving our country great care

These mighty warriors helping us in times of need
Doing us all a very good deed.

Defending and protecting from foreign invaders
Traveling across mountains, desserts and glaciers. 

Fighting along with our gallant flag
Proudly raising it high, never letting it sag. 

A rigorous job only fit for the best
During their work they rarely rest. 

Their relatives at home anticipating their arrival 
While the fighters in the battlefield attacks their rivals. 

Helping our nation prosper and grow
These soldiers deserve a great big bow.
