Soldier

You may shine O scorching sun

To shrink the earth to a ball of iron,

To evaporate every drop of water from every sea, from every ocean,

But I will fight on and on and on.

 

You may unleash O lightening and thunder

To destroy the world into a "khunder",

To commit every possible debacle, every possible blunder,

But I will fight on and on and on.

 

You may erupt O ferocious volcano

To submerge the earth in lava

To reduce the earth to a heap of ashes, to a mound of sand,

But I will fight on and on and on.

 

Come whatever may I will not deviate from my task,

I will save my fellowmen, I will save my land

For that moment of ecstasy, for that moment of pride,

I will fight on and on and on.
