No men are foreign
Remember, no men are strange , no countries foreign
Beneath all uniforms a single body breathes
Like ours; the land our brothers walk upon
Is earth like this in which we all shall lie .
They too are aware of sun ,air andwater,
Are fed by the peaceful harvest, by wars long winter starved
Their hand are ours,and in their lines we read
A labour not different from our own
Let us remember whenever we are told
to hate our brothers,it is ourselves
Remember,we who take arms against each other
It is the human earth that we defile.
Our hells of fire and dust outrage the innocence
Of air that is everywhere our own.
Remember, no men are foreign, and no countries strange.
Beneath all uniforms a single body breathes
Like ours; the land our brothers walk upon
Is earth like this in which we all shall lie .
They too are aware of sun ,air andwater,
Are fed by the peaceful harvest, by wars long winter starved
Their hand are ours,and in their lines we read
A labour not different from our own
Let us remember whenever we are told
to hate our brothers,it is ourselves
Remember,we who take arms against each other
It is the human earth that we defile.
Our hells of fire and dust outrage the innocence
Of air that is everywhere our own.
Remember, no men are foreign, and no countries strange.
