00:00They shall not grow old as we who are left grow old.
00:04Age shall not weary them or the years condemn.
00:07At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
00:10we will remember them.
00:11We will remember them.
00:14I would now ask Matteo Otto to come and recite in Flanders Field.
00:19In Flanders Field the poppies blow,
00:22Between the crosses row on row,
00:24That mock our place and in the sky,
00:26The lark still bravely singing,
00:28Why scarce heard amid the guns below.
00:30We are the dead, short days ago,
00:32We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
00:35Loved and were loved,
00:37And now we lie in Flanders Fields.
00:39Take up our quarrel with the foe,
00:41To you with failing hands we throw the torch,
00:44Be yours to hold it high,
00:45If ye break faith with us who die.
00:48We shall not sleep,
00:49But poppies grow in Flanders Fields.
