A Soldier's Charge

Soldier! Soldier! Where do you stand?

I stand here, in the Warring Land!

The battle is lost, you must flee!

The enemy charging, charging at thee!

 

My brothers in arms, stand by my side,

Folly be cowardice, courage abide.

Stand with me, push back the foe,

Keep thy head high, and fear low. 

 

Fear prevailed, the warriors fled,

A lone Ronin, for strength he bled.

Sword in hand, a loud battle cry,

Alone he charged, ready to die.
