Soldier Going to the War

Soldier going to the war—
Will you take my heart with you,
So that I may share a little
In the famous things you do?
 
Soldier going to the war—
If in battle you must fall,
Will you, among all the faces,
See my face the last of all?
 
Soldier coming from the war—
Who shall bind your sunburnt brow
With the laurel of the hero,
Soldier, soldier—vow for vow!
 
Soldier coming from the war—
When the street is one wide sea,
Flags and streaming eyes and glory—
Soldier, will you look for me?
