Weep not for me, my gallant duty now is done In dust and dirt, with searing thirst ‘neath foreign burning sun Think this instead, of others who will take my place And day and night their fears in private they do face Weep not for me, I simply am another son Weep not for me..

Weep not for me, remember me as one who won And had adventure, travel and much fun Think this instead of those who wait the call at night That simply says ‘he’s gone, he did not win this fight’ Weep not for me, my soul rests calm, and peace has come Weep not for me.....

Weep not for me, there still is much left to be done It was my choice to join and be as one With other souls who long for family close at hand Yet find support within their mates – their tight knit band Weep not for me, I’ve done what others never will have done.....

Weep not for me, the country knows what I have done And shows support by all of those who come To Wootten Basset in the rain, and there to stand In silent sombre tribute to that growing band Weep not for me, duty’s over, now I’m gone. Weep not for me......

Weep not for me, I am my mother’s - and my father’s - son Like countless others who their time had come But look to future, whatever that might bring And laugh and play, and shout and sing And with the family, be as one Weep not for me.....

... ain't that the truth!!!
