The time has come when darkness dawns,
As friends we shall part from this day on;
In our circle of friends which comprises you,
Being a member a great honour i feel.
...
Looking towards the horizon,
The battle has been won;
Most of them eyes were fiery,
Even though they were weary.
...
Trumpets sounding signaled the new dawn,
Many Recruits woke up with a frown;
Some grumbled and some muttered,
While some are too tired to be bothered.
