Exhortation To Reluctant Warriors

Exhortation to Reluctant Warriors

I, the drummer,

I, the singer,

Call to the sleepers

In the flowers dawn

awaken, awaken.

ohe ', ohe ',

The dawn blossoms,

Our war flowers,

The cause of All.

Hear my call!

ohe ', ohe '

Awaken to death in a field

of flowers, on a shield

of flowers, glittered

with blood, scattered

with eagle plumes

Abloom on bloodless

Breasts . Waken as blooms

of life, to flowering death.

ohe ', ohe '.
