In Flanders fields the poppies blow between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard ami...d the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders Fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields. by John McCrae Take a moment and honour those who give their lives to keep us safe. We are so grateful for all those who sacrificed so much for our country. #Remembranceday #LestWeForget Au champ d'honneur, les coquelicots Sont parsemés de lot en lot Auprès des croix; et dans l'espace Les alouettes devenues lasses Mêlent leurs chants au sifflement Des obusiers. Nous sommes morts Nous qui songions la veille encor' À nos parents, à nos amis, C'est nous qui reposons ici Au champ d'honneur. À vous jeunes désabusés À vous de porter l'oriflamme Et de garder au fond de l'âme Le goût de vivre en liberté. Acceptez le défi, sinon Les coquelicots se faneront Au champ d'honneur. Prenez un moment et honorez ceux qui donnent leur vie pour nous protéger. Nous sommes très reconnaissants pour ceux qui ont tant sacrifié pour notre pays. #Jourdusouvenir #N’oublionspas
