Ten million stones recall
Ten thousand Souls whose anguished cries
Of victory arose from this arena.
For such contempt that man had shown
...
The Empire's setting sun
Herald's the return of a warrior's glory.
An effigy in bronze
Tells of distant battles won.
...
Ours is a gentle love
That flows as if a singing stream
need never seek the lowland plain
And never fall from hills so green.
