LYRICS : Sometimes I feel that all those fallen soldiers, Who never left the bloody battle zones, Have not been buried to decay and molder, But turned into white cranes that softly groan.

The day shall come, when in a mist of ashen I’ll soar with cranes, and final rest I’ll find, From the skies calling – in a bird-like fashion – All those of you who I’ll have left behind. Sometimes I feel that all those fallen soldiers, Who never left the bloody battle zones, Have not been buried to decay and molder But turned into white cranes that softly groan…
