Sorry martin bhai.

 

Guyana dying.

 

eath of a comrade

 

Death must not find us thinking that we die

 

too soon, too soon

 

our banner draped for you

 

I would prefer

 

the banner in the wind

 

Not bound so tightly

 

in a scarlet fold

 

not sodden, sodden

 

with your people's tears

 

but flashing on the pole

 

we bear aloft

 

down and beyond this dark, dark lane of rags.

 

Now, from the mourning vanguard moving on

 

dear Comrade, I salute you and I say

 

Death will not find us thinking that we die.

 

Martin Carter
