Good luck, brother, may you succeed May happiness light your day; You go fight your foes in field I'll stay at home and pray. Your arms be firm to hold the gun Your heart be strong, may, But keep this girl a place in there Who'll stay at home at and pray. Fight for your country, it calls you, Fight for your loved, they say; You go help those in need of help, I'll stay at home and pray. May our family be together soon, May no harm come your way; May your strength never fail, I'll stay at home and pray.

Very touching! And when we think that on both sides there are mothers, wives, sisters and lovers having the same thoughts, it's really just so sad to see how we don't evolve to a level where war isn't an option anymore. Joining in your prayer for the safety of your brother ... Love, Margherita |
