War Song

Dorothy Parker


Soldier, in a curious land
All across a swaying sea,
Take her smile and lift her hand -
Have no guilt of me.

Soldier, when were soldiers true?
If she’s kind and sweet and gay,
Use the wish I send to you -
Lie not lone till day!

Only, for the nights that were,
Soldier, and the dawns that came,
When in sleep you turn to her
Call her by my name.
