"Excuse it, Please!"

Swiftly the boats go plying across the river,
Of those who carried the torch of sacrifice.
I see a cloud of dust rise on the plains,
For ideals old, with courage bold, the price.

The soldiers who come, the land to maintain,
Where dwells the darkness as deepest night,
For that tie that binds us close,
I hear a voice that calls on peace for light.

Glowing with light that was never shown before
For what today, I've done
And people smear them for a little space,
And hinder others at their fun.

How each green foot of soil from sea to sea
For all such sins as these,
How tears of pity warm as summer rain
I humbly say, "Excuse it, please!"
