Mother
Of The Brave
The
battlefield abandoned
Only
a statue remains
A
constant reminder
Of
bloodshed and pains
But
some have forgotten
How
their freedom was won
It's
a shame this reminder
Even
has to be done
For
those who were brave
And
sacrificed their lives
For
strangers unknown
Their
memory survives
Remember
your roots
Where
you've come from
The
road you traveled
What
is yet to come
Don't
stop to forget
The
lives that were lost
For
your freedom today
Had
an expensive cost
So
the statue will stand
As
a reminder to all
Of
the bravery shared
By
those willing to fall
For
those courageous souls
Guided
to their graves
You
will live forever
In
the mother of the brave
