    Hark to the clank of iron;
    'Tis heroes of the Yser,
    'Tis sweethearts of glory,
    'Tis lads who are unafraid!
    Ferryman ho!

Whence all but he had fled;
The flame that lit read more

The boy stood on the burning deck
Whence all but he had fled;
The flame that lit the battle's wreck,
Shone round him o'er the dead.

Without his Father's word;
That father, faint in death below,
His voice no longer heard.
