THE BALLADE OF THE COLORS
Red is the.color of courage rare,
White is•the symbol of purity,
And blue is the breath of the higher air
Where men may meet their dream and
be
The valorous knights of chivalry,
As they dart and 'wheel through' the
cloudy rack,
But -whether in trench or sky or sea -
Only the Hun flies flag of black.
When, in response to the trumpet's blare,
The French leap forth with that gallan-
try, r.
Which knows no thought but to de and
dare,
To Set their soil forever free,
Ab(jve their heads, triumphantly,
• The Tricolor is floating back -
Blue, white:and red its panoply,
Only the Hun flaunts flag -of black.
And when the sons of Britain fare
-Across the fields of Picardy€,
The. same proud colors mingle there
O'er faces set or victory.
While down the line, blood brothers we,
Go rushing forward to attack
Beneath those -magic colors three- -
Onl the e FIun
flaunts 11
Y flag of black.
Princes who fight for Liberty
And seek not helpless land, to sock,
Ye wear the badge of unity -
Only the I'.Jun flaunts the flag of black.
