Wait for me, I’ll be back.
Waiting can’t be wrong.
Waiting helps our beloved
To be keen and strong.

Tell my mother – I’m well,
Wishing to be back,
When the hurricane and storm
Make the sky so black.

Wait for me when others don’t,
Wishing to forget,
When the twilight outside
Makes you feel upset.

Wait for me when it is dark,
When it’s cold and wet.
Wait till comes another spring,
Arctic snows melt.

War is cruel, rare men
Happen to survive.
Only you and I will know
Why I stayed alive.
