"Take good care of yourself, my son,
Remember never be afraid of anyone;
You've a long way to go,
It will be some time, before we see you again
Remember we love you
Aand we think you're doing the right thing
For your country
Your brother will miss you
He wishes he could go
I'll explain and try to make him understand
It's time to go, the ship is waiting
Climb aboard, it's time to say goodbye."
