What is courage, is it hard to say
That a man may give his life away
It could be friend or maybe foe
But impartial courage he will show.

In fruitful reds and floral gold the church is decked from wall to wall,
Sheaves of wheat adorn the aisle and grateful offerings mass the floor.
Pungent hops draped round the font once more, for harvest festival, revive the past, recalling days when we were children of a war.

There is an Inn in, the village square,
Known to us all, as the Dog and Bear,
The locals, over a tankard of ale
Will tell of many a village tale.

The tree that stood for many a day
That weathered the storms that made it sway
I’ve climbed your great trunk and looked far and wide
You majestic tree that none could hide
...
People say that memories are golden
And maybe that is true
But we never wanted those memories of you
We only wanted you
...
Never treat others with scorn
Your’e only here ‘cause you were born’
Although your’e way up
You may not stay up
...
Spring, when the entire world awakes anew.
Winter has passed and the sun peeps through,
...
I look over my shoulder
And what do I see
It is that my shadow
Is following me
I jump in the shade
...
Near the window burns a candle
Casting shadows on the floor
In a corner sits a lady
Shielding from a draughty door
