I will go home now, my dear
After a day of sweat and fear
After a day of fatigue and hunger
After a deafening
noise of blasts and flare
I will go home
and rest, my dear
I will be home
soon, honey
After a day of precious
journey
A journey to
unfamiliar territory
For it is part of
my sworn duty
To protect you
and our country
I will go home
now, mother
Knowing that I have
done my share
In ensuring that
everyone out there
Would be out from
any harm or fear
I will go home but can't hug you, mother
I will go home
now, my children
Not to answer your
questions of when
Of when are we
going to play again
Or safely stroll
every now and then
I’ll be home to
be with you, my children
I will be home to be with you, Father
For I have nothing more to
render
The end of my journey is now
near
Near until I’ll be by your
side, Father
I’ll be home to be with you,
forever.
