From The Story of The 64th Battalion, c.e.f. 1915 - 1916 by Lt. Col. Geo. C. Machum, E.D. Sing the 64th (Air -- "Men of Harlech") Flash of guns in Flanders roaring, Voice of stricken maids imploring, Every hope in Free Men soaring Call us, Sixty-Fourth. Hearts of heroes sleeping, Wrongs of widows weeping, Rouse to arms the King's own men, And set the pulses leaping. Soon beyond the blood-red Yser We shall drive the craven Kaiser, Foe of men and God -- despiser, Sing the Sixty-Fourth. Wives at home your dangers sharing, Sweethearts, too, your sorrows bearing, Proud in grief to know your daring, Wait you Sixty-Fourth. Shall their bosoms yearning For your safe returning Wait in vain through lonely years While bitter tears are burning? This our answer -- some may tarry, Not with foreign maids to marry, But that Freedom's roll may carry Names of Sixty-Fourth. -- C.Q.M.S. Joseph Wallace.
