Remembrance of the Absent One You are fighting, Lad, for honour for goodwill to all mankind Believe me you are not forgot by those you left behind They admire your ardent courage upon the battle-field And pray for your protection beneath a heavenly shield They are anxious every moment good news from you to learn And will ever pray, by night and day, for your speedy safe return. Note the use of the Red Ensign with a kangaroo and boomerang overlay |
