Lyrics for the song
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 amid 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.
Song lyrics by John McCrae. Song performed by Estelle Muspratt. Video produced by the Department of Veterans' Affairs and the Australian Office of War Graves.
